In Africa, climate change impacts are experienced as extreme events like drought and floods.

In a new study, leading scientists from our Department of Biosciences have found that local colonisation and extinction of European breeding birds are very weakly influenced by climate change.

NASA's newest storm-watching satellites have collected their first views of hurricanes, offering scientists a new tool for understanding the inner workings of storms over shorter time spans.

The jet stream, the narrow band of westerly winds circling the northern hemisphere, is stagnating, giving rise to severe heat across much of the globe, and climate change may be making it worse, a new study finds.

The transition to an environmentally sustainable economy has begun, but it will be a generation (about twenty years) before we will see moderation of global warming.

If, as the saying goes, "nothing in life is free," then corals might pay a price for being resilient to climate change.

Worldwide, glass manufacturing produces at least 86 million tons of carbon dioxide every year.

For approximately 3,000 years, generations of green sea turtles have returned to the same Mediterranean seagrass meadows to eat. 

Coastal forests are increasingly exposed to the effects of climate change and sea level rise.
