Study Advances Understanding of Anthropogenic Effects on Climate Change
Anthropogenic aerosols — aerosols originating from human activity — and greenhouse gases, or GHGs, have helped modulate the storage and distribution of heat in oceans since the industrial age.
Three Things to Know: Climate Change’s Impact on Extreme Weather Events
In an article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Michael Mann, professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Science in the School of Arts & Sciences, and colleagues from Clemson University, the University of California Los Angeles, and Columbia University investigated the effects of climate change on exacerbating compounding heat and drought situations.
Scientists Propose New Strategy for Modern Sails to Help Shipping Sector Meet its Carbon Reduction Goals
Researchers have identified a strategy that can offset the random and unpredictable nature of weather conditions that threaten carbon emission reduction efforts in the shipping sector.
Electrochemical Device Captures Carbon Dioxide at the Flick of a Switch
New technology developed by Rice University engineers could lower the cost of capturing carbon dioxide from all types of emissions, a potential game-changer for both industries looking to adapt to evolving greenhouse gas standards and for the emergent energy-transition economy.
Birds Raise Fewer Young When Spring Arrives Earlier in a Warming World
Rising global temperatures are making it harder for birds to know when it’s spring and time to breed according to a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
