Sunlight drives molecules far from equilibrium, enabling new chemical pathways.

Reptiles that start out cheap, small and cute are the most likely to be released or escape – and potentially disrupt ecosystems, Rutgers study shows.

Water is essential to Manitoba, from agriculture to drinking water to hydroelectric generation, but it can also be dangerous; floods and droughts are both threats to our province.

A new study by scientists at the University of Bristol has shown that ancient global warming was associated with intense rainfall events that had a profound impact on the land and coastal seas.

Permafrost soils store large quantities of frozen carbon and play an important role in regulating Earth’s climate.

Less is more: reduced nitrogen has greater potential than originally thought.

University of Oregon researchers have found a way to account for how varying sediments underneath the world’s glaciers control how fast glaciers slide.

A new study demonstrates that the recent mass coral bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef was not restricted to shallow depths, but also affected deep reefs. Although deep reefs are often considered a refuge from thermal anomalies, the new research highlights limitations to this role and argues that both shallow and deep reefs are under threat of mass bleaching events. Published today in the journal Nature Communications, the study focuses on the mass bleaching event in 2016 that caused the death of 30% of shallow-water corals on the Great Barrier Reef. It details how the impacts of this bleaching lessened over depth but were still substantial on deep reefs.

What happens to high mountain ecosystems when you take away air pollution? Not much, not very quickly.

An international research team found that planet warming drove major changes in vegetation and future warming may drive similarly dramatic changes around the world.
