New research led by the University of East Anglia (UEA) reduces uncertainty in future climate change linked to the stratosphere, with important implications for life on Earth. 

UConn researchers use ancient plant leaf wax – signatures for what happened millions of years ago -- to reconstruct the history of Taiwan's mountains.

On a recent spring morning, Dave Hallac probably should have been at his desk in the regional offices of the National Park Service in Manteo, North Carolina, reading mail and going over budgets.

”The spring has finally arrived,” announced Michael Tjernström, Professor at Stockholm University and Chief Scientist of ARTofMELT2023 to the expedition participants during the routine breakfast meeting at 08.30 UTC on June 10th. Excitement mixed with relief filled the room.

Climate change has profound effects on ecosystems and on the compositions of species communities globally.

As human-driven climate change amplifies natural disasters, hurricanes and typhoons stand to increase in intensity.

Many of the world’s largest aquatic food producers are highly vulnerable to human-induced environmental change, with some of the highest-risk countries in Asia, Latin America and Africa demonstrating the lowest capacity for adaptation, a landmark study has shown.

Similar to the expeditions of a hundred or two hundred years ago, the Tara Pacific expedition lasted over two years.

Extreme weather events combined with rising environmental stress levels are increasing the likelihood of ecosystem collapse, according to new research involving the University of Southampton.

The rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration is a primary catalyst for global warming, and an estimated one fifth of the atmospheric CO2 originates from soil sources.
