The increased freshwater from melting Antarctic ice sheets plus increased wind has reduced the amount of oxygen in the Southern Ocean and made it more acidic and warmer, according to new research led by University of Arizona geoscientists.

As the effects of climate change are increasingly felt around the world, possible solutions — from reducing fossil fuel emissions to capturing carbon — have come to dominate policy discussions.

It’s no secret that many insects are struggling worldwide. 

A new study in Nature Climate Change has found that, left unchecked, the combined effects of deforestation and human-induced climate change could eliminate Madagascar’s entire eastern rainforest habitat by 2070, impacting thousands of plants, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians that are endemic to the island nation.

Not all pine trees are created equal when it comes to fending off their mortal enemy, the mountain pine beetle.

Searched for and found: climate researchers can now detect the fingerprint of global warming in daily weather observations at the global scale.

Climate change sceptics may be a minority, but they are a sizeable one.

Plate tectonics and mantle plumes set the lifespan of volcanic islands like Hawaii and the Galapagos.

According to the researchers, if the Atlantic Multidecadal or Pacific Decadal oscillations existed, there would be evidence for their existence across the suite of current state-of-the-art climate model simulations.
