Research involving scientists from the University of Plymouth has shed new light on natural processes in East Antarctica that could, over long timescales, help the Southern Ocean absorb more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Industrial waste, dyes and chemicals all potentially pollute our waters.

Evaporative cooling is far from new – it has been used to cool living spaces and drinking water for centuries – but the Matter of Tech Lab at Cornell Tech has come up with a new way to deploy an old idea.

Artificial intelligence is getting more powerful – but it’s also racking up a massive energy bill.

From land–borne pathogens to high–speed vessel strikes, Pacific whales and dolphins are caught in a “perfect storm” where human-caused trauma and infectious diseases were found in more than 65% of investigated strandings.

Despite its tropical climate and floodplain location, Bangladesh—one of the world’s most densely populated nations—seasonally does not have enough freshwater, especially in coastal areas.

Earth is taking in more energy than it releases back to space—a growing “energy imbalance” that is fueling global warming.

Engineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a spray-on polymer coating that could help plants resist harmful bacterial infections and survive drought.

A new study from a team of researchers that includes faculty from the University of California San Diego and Princeton University shows how a mix of subsidies for clean energy and taxes on pollution can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change.

Using electric vehicles batteries to power households could save their owners thousands of dollars in bills while cutting emissions from the power grid, according to new research from the University of Michigan and Ford Motor Co.
