Tropical Oceans Role in Climate Change
A new report from the Sir Alister Hardy Foundation for Ocean Science and the Marine Institute describes for the first time a globally synchronous pattern…
Climate Change Affects Australian Shrub
While some mass media outlets are dismissing the obvious global climate change, nature isn’t. The hopbush (Dodonaea viscosa), the subspecies angustissima in South Australia, has…
Carbon Sequestration Likely to Cause Intraplate Earthquakes
A recently published paper from Stanford scientists suggests that carbon sequestration is likely to create pressure build-up large enough cause intraplate earthquakes, breaking the reservoirs’…
Ancient Antarctica Was Much Warmer and Wetter than Previously Suspected
In an effort to better understand what the future of climate change may look like, a team of scientists examined plant leaf wax remnants in…
First Direct Observation of an Under-Ice Algal Bloom in the Arctic
During a NASA-sponsored ICESCAPE expedition, scientists found a massive algal bloom under the Arctic sea ice. Once thought impossible, this marks the first direct observation…
Melting Arctic Ice May Lead to Severe Weather Changes
A newly published study from Cornell University scientists suggests that the melting of Arctic sea ice due to climate change can lead to increased odds…
Earth Recovered 10 Million Years After Permian-Triassic Mass Extinction
The greatest mass extinction pulse was the Permian-Triassic extinction event, and it happened about 250 million years ago, nearly wiping out life on Earth. It…
1930s Photos Reveal History of Greenland Glaciers
Rediscovered aerial photos of Greenland from the 1930s have allowed scientists to construct the history of the glacier retreat and advance in the area. The…
Searching for an Efficient Way to Make Methanol
Researchers from SLAC and Stanford have teamed with scientists at the Max Planck Institute to examine catalysts in an effort to find an efficient way…
Increased Number of Plant Species Responding to Global Warming
A new study from a team of biologists suggests that many wild plant species are feeling the effects of global warming, even the species that…
Many Mammals in Western Hemisphere are Unlikely to Outrun Climate Change
A new study from the University of Washington shows whether mammals in the Western Hemisphere will actually be able to move to new areas suitable…
Support for Climate Change Policies Dwindling
A new Stanford survey suggests that support for policies intended to reduce future climate change has dropped by 10 percent over the last two years….
Southern Ocean Research Shows Decrease in Dense Antarctic Bottom Water
The latest research from a team of scientists shows that the amount of dense Antarctic Bottom Water is roughly 40% of what it was when…
Particulate Pollution Created ‘Warming Hole’ that Delayed Climate Change
In what may seem like a strange twist on global warming and greenhouse gas effects, Harvard researchers discovered that particulate pollution created a “warming hole”…
Changes in Ocean Salinity and the Water Cycle Could Affect Food Supplies
While scientists continue to monitor climate change and the cause and effect on the environment, a new study from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory looks…
Study Blames Warm Ocean Currents for Majority of Ice Loss in Antarctica
Using new techniques with satellite measurements to differentiate between the warm ocean currents attacking the underside ice shelves and warm air melting it from above,…
Increased Methane Gas Levels Found Over Cracks in Arctic Sea Ice
As scientists continue to research and monitor greenhouse gas emissions, a new source of methane gas has appeared from cracks in Arctic sea ice. Conducted…
