A two year field experiment carried out in the world’s northernmost cultivated peatland, located in Pasvik in Finnmark, shows that greenhouse gas emissions can be greatly reduced by raising and maintaining the water table at 25–50 centimetres below the soil surface.

How a shifting plate boundary and hot mantle material formed one of the largest canyons in the ocean.

In the longest-running field warming experiment of its kind, researchers have documented dramatic shifts in high-elevation mountain meadows, revealing that changes in climate alter not only the plants we can see above ground, but the invisible world of fungi and microbes in the soil below.

An interdisciplinary research team at Colorado State University is using artificial intelligence to help farmers better understand soil health by turning varied agricultural data into practical, decision-ready insights that are easy to access.

Led by Newcastle University, the study found that the greatest potential to reduce species extinction risk in the Northern Sub-catchments of San José, Costa Rica, lies in addressing habitat loss and degradation due to livestock farming and ranching, urban expansion, and the spread of non-native invasive species.

Pollinators comprise a taxonomically diverse group – including insects, mammals, birds, and more rarely, amphibians, reptiles, and even gastropods – that support wild plant communities and underpin global food production systems.

Antarctica’s pale expanses of ice keep water locked up and reflect heat from the planet — but the climate crisis is putting these safeguards at increasing risk.

Florida Atlantic University’s Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute has been awarded a grant from Blue Carbon Plus (BC+) to explore sustainable, market-driven aquaculture opportunities in The Bahamas and elsewhere.

An international team has drilled the longest ever sediment core from under an ice sheet, providing a record stretching back millions of years that will help climate scientists forecast the fate of the ice sheet in our warming world.

Global warming must peak below 2°C then return under 1.5°C as quickly as possible to limit the risk of dangerous “tipping points”, experts say.
