Diminishing periods of snow cover in northern forests, shortened by climate change, are poised to disrupt a delicate balance in some of the planet’s most climate-sensitive regions, according to new research from McMaster University, VU Amsterdam, and the Woodwell Climate Research Center.

Mangroves could store less carbon – and even begin releasing it – as sea levels rise, new research suggests.

Every year at Grand Canyon National Park, millions of visitors from all over the world stop at one of a dozen water spigots. 

In the absence of human interference, the soil beneath the world’s forests normally exhales carbon steadily and consistently. 

The new study mapped and assessed more than 140,000 solar PV installations worldwide using satellite data.

From sizzling bacon in the kitchen to wildfire smoke in the sky, cooking and pollution release microscopic particles that affect humans' health, the air they breathe, and even weather and climate.

The plumbing systems of volcanos are vast and complex. But they aren’t consistent, even in the same volcano.

Nearly 69 million people in the United States speak a language other than English at home, yet weather warnings have long been issued almost exclusively in English. 

A new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience by researchers at the IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP) at Pusan National University in South Korea shows that the Antarctic ice sheet became more sensitive to climate forcing following a major shift in Earth’s ice age cycles about one million years ago, providing new insight into how ice sheets respond to long-term climate change.

A fish–microbe partnership may produce minerals that help shape the marine carbon cycle.
