Climate Change Strikes: Lightning Patterns Change With Global Warming
Study lead author, Dr Abdullah Kahraman, Senior Researcher in Severe Weather and Climate Change, School of Engineering, Newcastle University and Visiting Scientist - Understanding Regional Climate Change (URCC), Met Office Hadley Centre, said: “While more frequent lightning strikes over mountains and in Northern Europe might trigger more wildfires in higher level forests, we are going to see relatively fewer lightning hazards over more populated areas of Central Europe.”
Using Monsoons of the Past to Predict Climate Conditions of the Future
The North American southwest has been suffering through weather extremes in recent years ranging from searing heatwaves and scorching wildfires to monsoon rainfalls that cause flash floods and mudslides.
New Technology Creates Carbon Neutral Chemicals Out of Thin Air
“Capturing CO2 from the surrounding air and directly converting it into useful products is exactly what we need to approach carbon neutrality in the chemicals sector.
Planting and Management of Improved Grass in Tropical Savannas Can Increase Soil Carbon by 15 Percent, New Paper Finds
Scientists in Colombia show that well managed pasture can store more soil carbon while reducing nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions to offset the climate impact of livestock.
Deforestation and Grassland Conversion are the Biggest Causes of Biodiversity Loss
The conversion of natural forests and grasslands to agriculture and livestock is the biggest cause of global biodiversity loss.
