Study describes passive cooling system that aims to help impoverished communities, reduce cooling and heating costs, lower CO2 emissions. Passive cooling, like the shade a…
Most of Northern California’s kelp forest ecosystem is gone, replaced by widespread ‘urchin barrens’ that may persist long into the future, according to a new…
A new global ice sheet reconstruction for the past 80,000 years. During ice ages, the global mean sea level falls because large amounts seawater are…
Volcanic eruptions, not natural variability, were the cause of an apparent “Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation,” a purported cycle of warming thought to have occurred on a…
Rising temperatures could reduce the efficiency of food chains and threaten the survival of larger animals, new research shows. Scientists measured the transfer of energy…
Study reveals open ocean waters once assumed to be unproductive are in fact teeming with an abundance of life on coral reefs. Since Charles Darwin’s…
Rainforest degradation, wildfire reducing species. A widespread field search for a rare Australian native bee not recorded for almost a century has found it’s been…
Ocean warming predicted to cause a twofold increase in amplitude of rainfall fluctuations over the tropical Pacific. The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the most…
If you live with seasonal allergies and feel like the pollen seasons feel longer and longer every year, you may be right. New research shows…
To curb climate change, many experts have called for a massive shift from fossil fuels to electricity. The goal is to electrify processes like heating…
