Wetlands have shaped human life in Europe since ancient times.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar (IITGN), in collaboration with international partners, have shown that ocean temperature patterns help limit the global spread of droughts. 

It’s intuitive to think that if a tree is photosynthesizing, it’s also growing.

Last November, a study led by Adrien Wehrlé, a researcher in the department of geography at the University of Zürich, Switzerland, looked at the massive calving response of one of West Greenland’s active glaciers, Sermeq Kujalleq in the Kangia icefjord (SKK), to the drainage of two surface lakes. 

It’s a truism among oceanographers that there is more accurate mapping of the surface of the Moon and Mars than of the deep-ocean floor. 

A newer ‘climate-friendly’ refrigerant used in car air conditioning systems, may already be a significant, and possibly dominant, source of a ‘forever chemical’ pollutant across Europe, according to a new University of Bristol-led study.

After nearly four decades, the world’s longest-running soil warming experiment is revealing a surprising result: even ‘stable’ carbon in forest soils can break down as temperatures rise, releasing more carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere.

A new study, led by experts at the University of Nottingham, suggests a pet gecko with an unusually high risk of tumours may be a promising model for understanding how cancer develops and spreads.

The Black Sea sits at the boundary between Europe and Asia and connects to the Mediterranean Sea via a chain of waterways. 

Plants do not wait hours to respond to intense sunlight—they react within minutes.
