Diverse Plant Water-Use Strategies Make Forests More Resilient to Extreme Drought
To paint a clearer picture of how global climate change will affect Earth's ecosystems, a team of 80 international research scientists set out to complete an unparalleled experiment: forcing the world's only enclosed rainforest – housed in the University of Arizona's Biosphere 2 – through a four-month-long controlled drought and recovery.
Disappearing Lake Tuz
Once the second-largest lake in Turkey, it now rarely spans an area much larger than a puddle.
UNM Scientists Find Climate-Driven Tree Mortality and Fuel Aridity Increase Wildfire Fuel Availability
New research conducted by scientists at The University of New Mexico suggests climate-driven tree mortality and fuel aridity are increasing fuel availability in forests leading to record-breaking wildfires in size, spread and plume formation.
Measuring Salt in the Ocean May Be Key to Predicting Hurricane Intensity
NOAA & Saildrone team up to gather unprecedented extreme weather data
How Do Tiny Aerosol Particles Like Dust And Sea Salt Change Cloud Formation?
New NSF-funded research led by Texas A&M’s Yue Zhang will examine aerosol and cloud interactions, which have major implications for climate models and predictions.
