Report: Antarctic Is Changing Dramatically, With Global Consequences
The Antarctic has also played a profound role in regulating the world’s climate, in part by absorbing heat and carbon dioxide emissions resulting from human activity.
Pioneering Study Shows Climate Played Crucial Role in Changing Location of Ancient Coral Reefs
The new study, published in Nature Communications, demonstrates how changes in temperature and plate tectonics, where the positions of Earth’s continents were in very different positions than today, have determined the distribution of corals through the ages.
Study Explores Uncertainties in Flood Risk Estimates
Flood frequency analysis is a technique used to estimate flood risk, providing statistics such as the “100-year flood” or “500-year flood” that are critical to infrastructure design, dam safety analysis, and flood mapping in flood-prone areas.
