A new study led by an ecology and evolutionary biologist at UC Santa Cruz finds that temperature changes due to climate change have a doubly detrimental impact: Not only do they destabilize animal populations, but the impacts accelerate as temperatures change more rapidly.
Volunteers have planted more than 2,500 native trees on pasture in southwest England, part of a larger effort to recreate the temperate rainforest that once dominated much of the British Isles.
Current plastic waste management methods are costly and harmful to the environment — and common biodegradable alternatives, like soggy paper straws, fall short as a replacement.
Many climate predictions focus on physical models like wind speed, temperatures and geochemistry, but significantly overlook how human behaviour responds to environmental change.
The devastating fires in Los Angeles have numerous secondary effects as scientists are finding out now off the coast of Southern California.
Research reveals that aerosols from Canadian wildfires of summer 2023 contributed to the formation of ice clouds over the Arctic.
The world’s botanic gardens must pull together to protect global plant biodiversity in the face of the extinction crisis, amid restrictions on wild-collecting, say researchers.
An interdisciplinary team of researchers from NTU Singapore, and Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), The Netherlands, has projected that if the rate of global CO2 emissions continues to increase and reaches a high emission scenario, sea levels would as a result very likely rise between 0.5 and 1.9 metres by 2100.
Study underscores the urgent need to protect global tropical wetlands from human impact.
Modelling study estimates 2.3 million additional temperature-related deaths unless urgent action is taken to address changing climate.
