Collecting rainwater from rooftops and using it to spray buildings during hot weather could help cities cut air conditioning use, lower urban temperatures and lessen the impact of heatwaves, according to new research from The University of Manchester.
Being inside with the windows closed does not completely protect you from the smoke caused by wildfires, early findings by University of Manchester researchers suggest.
In March, the world passed a major energy milestone, adding its third terawatt of solar power.
Forest trees growing in air containing higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) radically change the way they ‘cycle’ nitrogen, a key plant nutrient, with implications for forests as a nature-based climate solution.
Satellite-derived maps of defoliation caused by European spongy moths – a devastating U.S. forest pest that consumes the leaves of a wide variety of trees – offer a promising solution for tracking where and when to spray and for identifying large scale trends and conditions that lead to pest outbreaks, according to a new study.
Landslides cause an estimated $3-6 billion in damage and multiple fatalities annually in the United States.
In Greenland, where the island’s ice sheet is melting around six times faster than it was in the 1990s, billions of tons of ice are already disappearing each year.
Marco Tedesco does not sound like a man trying to sell artificial intelligence.
A new study analyzed data from multiple independent sources, ranging from satellite remote sensing-based machine learning products to state-of-the-art Earth System Models, to reveal how climate change shapes the Northern Eurasian carbon sink.
