Massive iceberg discharges during the last ice age had no impact on nearby Greenland, raising new questions about climate dynamics. Heinrich Events, massive iceberg discharges…
A recent study has revealed that the rising temperatures of the Atlantic Ocean are putting previously stable glaciers at risk. According to a recent study,…
The past decade has seen the worst years for polar ice sheet melting, with 2019 being the record year. Ice sheet melting now accounts for…
According to recent research conducted by the University of Southampton, flash droughts have become more frequent as a result of human-induced climate change, and this…
Storing biomass in dry landfills by salting and burying it can economically preserve greenhouse gases for thousands of years. Lowering the worldwide greenhouse gas emissions…
Once we emit about 1000 gigatons of carbon, much of the massive ice sheet will melt irreversibly. We’ve emitted 500 gigatons so far. The Greenland…
The mass loss of lake-terminating glaciers in the greater Himalayas has been significantly underestimated due to satellite limitations, with major implications for projections of glacier…
MIT engineers discover new carbonation pathways for creating more environmentally friendly concrete. Concrete’s carbon footprint could be reduced by 15% if sodium bicarbonate is introduced…
New research reveals that ice being lost from glaciers that flow into lakes in the Himalayas has been significantly underestimated. This discovery has critical implications…
More than 500 home runs since 2010 due to warmer, thinner air caused by global warming. A Dartmouth study found that climate change is impacting…
A new study suggests using conservation data to proactively predict and prevent species from becoming threatened, potentially benefiting up to 20% of land mammals by…
Due to lower tree-stand density, it is unlikely that massive infestations fueled by climate change will reoccur. The Sierra Nevada’s Ponderosa pine forests, which were…
Researchers found rates of sea-level rise of about a half an inch per year since 2010 — three times higher than the global average over…
Impacts of potent greenhouse gas: a bit lower than previously thought. UC Riverside researchers found that methane not only traps heat in the atmosphere but…
Scientists discover that during periods of global warming, ice sheets can retreat at a pace of up to 600 meters per day, which is 20…
First assessment of bottom marine heat waves opens a window on the deep. The 2013-2016 marine heat wave known as “The Blob” warmed a vast…
Europe has just endured its second warmest winter on record. Much of southern and western Europe has been affected by substantial anomalies of soil moisture…
