In the wake of a series of destructive storms in late December and early January, California’s long-ailing mountain reservoirs have risen, satellite images from NASA show.

Researchers have found that the movement of glaciers in Greenland is more complex than previously thought, with deformation in regions of warmer ice containing small amounts of water accounting for motion that had often been assumed to be caused by sliding where the ice meets the bedrock beneath.

NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) is updating its current global climate dataset to provide more information about the Earth’s climate, while also extending the planet’s observed temperature record by 30 years.

Most people associate hurricanes with high winds, intense rain and rapid flooding on land.
