GRACE, GRACE-FO Satellite Data Track Ice Loss at the Poles Greenland and Antarctica are melting — but how quickly and which areas are most affected?…
The two regions have lost 6.4 trillion tons of ice in three decades; unabated, this rate of melting could cause flooding that affects hundreds of…
New Mitigation Strategy Bears Great Potential Permafrost soils in the Arctic are thawing. As they do, large additional quantities of greenhouse gases could be released,…
Rising global temperatures are increasing exposure to extreme heat and humidity. Heat stress from extreme heat and humidity will annually affect areas now home to…
According to a new report, Greenland and Antarctica are losing ice six times faster than in the 1990s – currently on track with the Intergovernmental…
Biomass fuels derived from various grasses could significantly mitigate global warming by reducing carbon, according to a long-term field study by researchers at Ben-Gurion University…
Explanation is proposed for extra heat in the oceans. The Arctic has experienced the warming effects of global climate change faster than any other region…
On February 6, 2020, weather stations recorded the hottest temperature on record for Antarctica. Thermometers at the Esperanza Base on the northern tip of the…
Rising ocean temperatures drove the melting of Antarctic ice sheets and caused extreme sea level rise more than 100,000 years ago, a new international study…
As Our Planet Gets Greener, Plants Are Slowing Global Warming But an international team of researchers, including Ranga Myneni and Chi Chen from BU, say…
Implicated in a Third of Overall Global Warming for the Time Period A scientific paper published in 1985 was the first to report a burgeoning…
According to independent analyses by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Earth’s global surface temperatures in 2019 were the second warmest since…
Cardiff University scientists have shed new light on the Earth’s climate behavior during the last known period of global warming over 14 million years ago….
Generally speaking, “flue gas” refers to any gas coming out of a pipe, exhaust, chimney etc as a product of combustion in a fireplace, oven,…
Greenland is losing ice seven times faster than in the 1990s and is tracking the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s high-end climate warming scenario, which…
Greenhouse gas emissions released directly from the movement of volcanic rocks are capable of creating massive global warming effects — a discovery which could transform…
Deep in the Sayan Mountains of northern Mongolia, patches of ice rest year-round in the crooks between hills. Locals in this high tundra call the…
Emperor penguins are some of the most striking and charismatic animals on Earth, but a new study from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) has…
