Study reveals drainage, deforestation of the region’s peatlands, which leads to fires, greenhouse emissions, land subsidence. In less than three decades, most of Southeast Asia’s…
In a study published recently in Ecology and Evolution, an international team of researchers focused on what can happen to ocean ecosystems when fishing pressure increases…
Comprehensive compilation of pre-historic temperature records shows that global warming is reaching levels not seen for at least 6,000 years. Over the past 150 years,…
Warming Will Reduce Trees’ Ability to Slow Climate Change New research suggests that the most abundant trees in North America absorb less carbon dioxide as…
Beavers Gnawing Away at the Permafrost The large rodents are massively changing landscapes in the Arctic, which could have serious consequences for the frozen soils…
Modeling of the Chicxulub asteroid impact 66 million years ago shows it created a world largely unsuitable for dinosaurs to live in. The asteroid, which…
Study finds simple changes in road resurfacing practices could improve gas mileage for heavy vehicles and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Every time you hear a…
New representations of clouds are making models more sensitive to carbon dioxide. As scientists work to determine why some of the latest climate models suggest…
Ice core research in Antarctica sheds new light on the role of sea ice for the carbon balance. New research findings underline the crucial role…
MIT analysis uncovers the basis of the severe rainfall declines predicted by many models. Although global climate models vary in many ways, they agree on…
Ice core samples provide new evidence of a massive volcanic eruption in 43 BCE. An international team of scientists and historians has found evidence connecting…
Shrinkage due to COVID-19 may provide case in point. Volcanic eruptions and human-caused changes to the atmosphere strongly influence the rate at which the ocean…
A team of researchers led by Arizona State University School of Earth and Space Exploration Professor Lindy Elkins-Tanton has provided the first ever direct evidence that extensive…
When extreme climate conditions interact with stressors to social systems, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the consequences could be severe unless experts from diverse backgrounds…
Research suggests glacial melting might explain the recent decadal cooling and sea ice expansion across Antarctica’s Southern Ocean. Tucked away at the very bottom of…
Coral reef islands across the world could naturally adapt to survive the impact of rising sea levels, according to new research. The increased flooding caused…
IUPUI-led study is the first to find satellite data can detect fog’s impact on vegetation levels under climate change. A new study led by ecohydrologists…
