For ecosystems, a forest fire does not end where the flames stop.
A team of researchers has discovered that the winds generated by supermassive black holes are 100 times more powerful than previously thought, carrying energy across distances of approximately 300,000 light-years.
A new study that combines paleoclimate data and climate models suggests that large volcanic eruptions can disrupt the relationship between atmospheric circulations of the tropical Indian and Pacific oceans.
Scientists in search of coral reef barriers which had been detected but not investigated in the 1960s, and were thought to be dead, discovered an apparently thriving ecosystem of deep-water corals.
Specialized microbes transform inedible material into protein-rich snacks.
Rapid series of low-pressure systems can cause weather conditions under which the ice can only hardly recover.
Peatlands store large amounts of carbon. However, when they are drained, they can become substantial sources of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a new approach that enables the service life of reinforced concrete to be predicted based on weather conditions.
