By mid-century, once dominant winter sports may slowly be replaced by activities less dependent on perfect winter conditions according to recently released research about changing patterns of recreation on public lands.

University of Tsukuba researchers apply pressure and atmospheric circulation modeling to identify that warm sea surface temperature conditions in the Indian Ocean were a major factor in the anomalously warm winter and extreme summer rainfall in East Asia in 2019-20

Sometimes, doing things close to home may be more feasible than doing them on a grand scale, even if they cost a bit more. 

So many climate models, so little time … A new way of measuring ocean temperatures helps scientists sort the likely from unlikely scenarios of global warming.

Urbanization trends in the Himalaya are exposing more people to risk from compound hazards such as flooding, landslides and wildfires, a new study published in the journal Science of the Total Environment has found.

A decades-long study of voles on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard is offering insights into a longstanding puzzle of Arctic ecology---effectively, what drives the well-established population cycles of small Arctic mammals, such as voles and lemmings.

Northern Hemisphere’s summer tied 2019 as second hottest

Raymond Bradley, Distinguished Professor Of Geosciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, will lead a team of researchers to Peary Land, Greenland’s northernmost region with one of the earth’s harshest climates, to discover how humans settled and survived there beginning 4,500 years ago, thanks to a $2.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation. 

Many species will become extinct as a consequence of global warming. 

A new study from North Carolina State University suggests textbook wording that portrays climate change information as uncertain can influence how middle and high school students feel about the information, even for students who say they already know about climate change and its human causes.
