When extreme weather looms, timely and accurate warnings can give people the chance to adjust their plans, brace for danger and, in the most severe cases, make decisions that keep them safe. 

Technique uses deep learning to recognize subtle patterns in ocean surface temperature caused by currents.

Tiny particles bubbling up from the tops of melting sea ice into the Arctic sky may be a key, understudied element of cloud formation in that climate-sensitive region.

Peatlands cover upwards of 12 per cent of Canada’s landscape and store more carbon than all other ecosystems in the country combined, making them one of Canada’s most powerful natural climate allies.

Microbial methane leaking from non-producing oil and gas wells is being emitted at rates about 1,000 times higher than previously estimated, according to a new study led by McGill University researchers.

Glaciers in High Mountain Asia — a region encompassing the Tibetan Plateau and its surrounding mountain ranges — are shrinking rapidly, endangering water resources for millions of people, suggests a new study.

A new study pieces together existing data sources in order to develop a detailed, dynamic picture of auto emissions.

In parts of the Midwest and Great Plains, feathery yellow goldenrod and stands of big bluestem sway alongside Indiangrass and other prairie plants, stretching up to eight feet tall.

New research led by scientists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography finds that the travel time of underwater sounds traveling across the Arctic Ocean can be used to precisely measure ocean temperature under the region’s sea ice, providing precious data on temperature variability in a rapidly changing environment that is remote and difficult to access.

At the top of the planet, the cap of sea ice across Arctic waters grows and shrinks with the seasons, usually reaching its annual maximum extent in March. In 2026, this peak occurred on March 15, when the extent reached 14.29 million square kilometers, matching the lowest maximum observed since satellite monitoring began in 1979.
