Global warming makes long lasting weather situations in the Northern hemisphere‘s summer months more likely – which in turn leads to more extreme weather events, a novel analysis of atmospheric images and data finds.

Red Sea phytoplankton blooms change seasonally and interannually in response to climatic events. A KAUST study has analyzed satellite data over two decades and its findings will underpin other investigations into how climate change could impact this marine ecosystem.

While Georgia Tech is not yet operating a CHP system, it is currently examining options for lessening the campus’s energy footprint.

Unless climate change is slowed significantly, more than three feet of sea level rise (SLR) is expected in California by the end of the century, potentially flooding communities that are currently home to more than 145,000 residents.

The warming or cooling of the atmosphere does not only depend on clouds and greenhouse gases. Aerosol particles also play an important role.

Plans to restore Indonesian peatlands are a cost-effective strategy for reducing the impacts of peatland fires to the environment, climate and human health, says a new study.

Many factors affect the flux of carbon into and out of Earth’s oceans, including ocean surface winds.

A project investigated how different climate scenarios and policy interventions could affect smallholder farmers in Nepal.

The climate crisis is limiting the availability of krill —small crustaceans that are vital in the marine food chain— during summer in some areas of the Antarctica.

Scientists at the University of Southampton have discovered that two intense periods of volcanism triggered global cooling and falling oxygen levels in the oceans, which caused one of the most severe mass extinctions in Earth history.
