Risk of Intense Tropical Cyclones Will Double by 2050
Human-caused climate change will make strong tropical cyclones twice as frequent by the middle of the century, putting large parts of the world at risk, according to a new study published in Scientific Advances.
Unchecked Global Emissions on Track to Initiate Mass Extinction of Marine Life
As greenhouse gas emissions continue to warm the world’s oceans, marine biodiversity could be on track to plummet within the next few centuries to levels not seen since the extinction of the dinosaurs, according to a recent study in the journal Science by Princeton University researchers.
Research Examines Keys to Developing Better Batteries
It doesn’t come on fast. It may take weeks to notice. You have the newly recharged lithium-ion AA batteries in the wireless kitty water fountain, and they last two days.
Bird Populations in Eastern Canada Declining Due to Forest ‘Degradation,’ Research Shows
Bird species that live in wooded areas are under stress from human-caused changes to forest composition, according to new research led by Oregon State University that quantifies the effects of forest “degradation” on bird habitat.
Global Warming Accelerates the Water Cycle, With Relevant Climatic Consequences
According to a new study led by the ICM-CSIC, this could lead to a destabilisation of the global climate system, an intensification of storms in specific areas, and an acceleration of ice melting at the poles.
