Ghost forests, the cemetery-like groupings of dead trees killed by saltwater intrusion, have become haunting symbols of sea level rise overtaking land along the Mid-Atlantic coast.

Tidal wetlands are critical, yet vulnerable ecosystems. Tidal marshes, mangrove forests, and tidal flats support biodiversity, protect against flooding and storm surges, sequester carbon, and improve water quality.

Fine particles (PM₂.₅) were associated with around 79,000 preventable deaths, followed by nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃) and coarser particles (PM₂.₅-₁₀, particles with a diameter between 2.5 and 10 micrometres).

New research shows how climate change is reshaping protected area management, though more funding and scientific knowledge are needed to facilitate the process.

A Dartmouth study shows that annual rainfall in much of the world has consolidated over the past four decades into heavier storms with longer dry periods in between.

Each year, four to six million cars are scrapped in the EU—resulting in the loss of ressources.

A major Atlantic Ocean current system that helps regulate Earth’s climate has been slowing for nearly two decades across a wide stretch of ocean, according to new research—potentially reshaping weather patterns across the globe.

Southern California has seen a spike in great white shark sightings amid a spate of unseasonably warm spring weather. 

Flinders University experts are warning that artificial intelligence (AI) must be carefully evaluated and governed before it is adopted widely in healthcare, saying rapid advances do not automatically translate into safe use for patients.

Sunlight can be used to activate sustainable 2D materials capable of degrading toxic pollution in water.
