As CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere keep rising regardless of years of political intentions to limit emissions, the world’s oceans are drowning in plastics, which threatens marine environments and ecosystems.

Seagrass has the potential to be one of the world’s most effective sponges at soaking up and storing carbon, but we don’t yet know how nutrient pollution affects its ability to sequester carbon.

A study using multiple agronomic models to examine two long-term agricultural research stations in North America shows that so-called climate-smart agricultural practices – like no-till treatments, cover-crop utilization and residue retention – can help promote carbon sequestration in soil and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

A new AI model detects thousands of previously unseen quakes in near real time, helping scientists understand changes in an Italian volcanic area where seismic activity has been intensifying since 2018.

First long-term study on the East Antarctic interior ice sheet region reveals the Indian Ocean mechanism driving this change.
