Rutgers researcher co-creates tool to help identify outbreaks and prioritize virus control efforts.

A large, slow-moving landslide is accelerating in eastern Congo, putting a community at risk. 

A Swiss energy firm has installed nearly 5,000 solar panels on the country’s longest dam. 

Rocks, rain and carbon dioxide help control Earth’s climate over thousands of years — like a thermostat — through a process called weathering.

Almost all of Africa’s maize crop is at risk from the devastating fall armyworm pest (Spodoptera frugiperda) according to new research published in the journal Frontiers in Insect Science.

A team of scientists are currently conducting a major experiment over the Southern Ocean that will help to improve climate modelling.

Right now, the temperature of the Earth is pretty much perfect for humans, at around 13.9 degrees Celsius, or 57 degrees Fahrenheit. 

DART (Dengue Advanced Readiness Tools), a new project led by Oxford University, has received funding from Wellcome to use climate data to better predict and prepare for infectious diseases outbreaks.

Climate change alters the global atmospheric circulation, which in turn alters precipitation and evaporation in large parts of the world and, in consequence, the amount of river water that can be used locally.

In the study of human impact on the environment, there are few negative or stabilising feedbacks on climate change.
