A new study in Global Biogeochemical Cycles shows per-area greenhouse gas emissions from the world’s water reservoirs are around 29% higher than suggested by previous studies, but that practical measures could be taken to help reduce that impact.

In the deep waters that underlie the productive zones of the ocean, there is a constant rain of organic material called 'marine snow'.

Researchers have identified the key factors that influence a vital pattern of ocean currents.

Swedish researchers from institutions including Uppsala University have spent four years gathering data from the areas affected by the major forest fire of 2014. 

The smoke from the extreme forest fires on the US West Coast in September 2020 travelled over many thousands of kilometres to Central Europe, where it continued to affect the atmosphere for days afterwards. 

The rate at which plants and the land surface release moisture into the air has increased on a global scale between 2003 and 2019.

Although sun radiation was relatively low, the temperature on the young Earth was warm.

Climate change will make outbreaks of West Nile virus more likely in the UK within the next 20-30 years, scientists say.

Corals that withstood a severe bleaching event and were transplanted to a different reef maintained their resilient qualities, according to a new study led by Katie Barott of the School of Arts & Sciences.

Between 1991 and 2018, more than a third of all deaths in which heat played a role were attributable to human-induced global warming, according to a new study in Nature Climate Change.
