Study: Glass Microspheres Won’t Save Arctic Sea Ice
A proposal to cover Arctic sea ice with layers of tiny hollow glass spheres about the thickness of one human hair would actually accelerate sea-ice loss and warm the climate rather than creating thick ice and lowering the temperature as proponents claim.
195 Ways to Help California’s Painted Ladies
By documenting hundreds of new nectar plants for painted ladies, scientists have renewed hope these charismatic butterflies may prove resilient to climate change.
Seasonal Change in Antarctic Ice Sheet Movement Observed for First Time

As Winters Warm, Nutrient Pollution Threatens 40% of U.S.
Scientists are ringing alarm bells about a significant new threat to U.S. water quality: as winters warm due to climate change, they are unleashing large amounts of nutrient pollution into lakes, rivers, and streams.
Deciphering Environmental Data From Corals
Rising sea surface temperatures threaten tropical coral reefs, as these ecosystems are sensitive to a changing environment.
