This winter was one of the warmest on record across the West; as a result, many snowy, alpine areas have seen bouts of winter rainfall where there would ordinarily only be snow.

With climate change, mountain water resources are becoming a major issue.

A new study reveals an unprecedented increase in wildfires in tropical peatlands during the 20th century.

Vibrations in the ground are found everywhere.

When the temperature drops to -20°C, we electric car owners quickly notice it on our wallets.

Contamination of ground, surface and drinking water by perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) affects millions of people worldwide.

Climate change was poised to create an interesting catch-22 for electric vehicles. Electrifying transportation can go a long way to reducing carbon emissions that are driving up global temperatures.

One of the best forms of heat relief is pretty simple: trees.

While air-conditioning protects people from dangerous heat, it also significantly worsens global warming – by 2050 potentially producing more carbon dioxide than the current annual emissions of the United States, a new study reveals.

Two interdisciplinary research teams at University of California, Santa Cruz, will develop agricultural technology for farmers with the support of grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) 2025 Specialty Crop Block Grant Program.
