The primeval ocean, full of nothing at first, evolved over time to the state that we have today. How did that development take place?

Researchers at Duke University have developed a method that uses machine learning, satellite imagery and weather data to autonomously find hotspots of heavy air pollution, city block by city block.

Agricultural producers deal firsthand with changing weather conditions, and extreme events such as drought or flooding can impact their productivity and profit.

Last month saw the average concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) climb to almost 418 parts-per-million, a level not seen on Earth for millions of years. In order to get a sense of what our future may hold, scientists have been looking to the deep past.

A new study from North Carolina State University found that, on average, voters and local leaders showed greater concern about plastic and other garbage in the ocean after watching kids’ presentations.

Teams from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Sandia National Laboratories have collaborated to develop a streamlined and efficient process for converting woody plant matter like forest overgrowth and agricultural waste – material that is currently burned either intentionally or unintentionally – into liquid biofuel. Their research was published recently in the journal ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering.

After an unusually dry winter, forest fires have raged throughout the mountainous country.

The tool will help people, including resource managers and other officials, to address increasing concentrations of methane and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Massive Australian bushfires likely contributed to the large and persistent ozone hole in 2020.

UCI graduate students, researchers traveled the world to chart major ocean regions.
