A new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience led by scientists at University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, found that human-induced environmental changes around Antarctica are contributing to sea level rise in the North Atlantic.

In principle, one shouldn’t compare apples to oranges. However, in topology, which is a branch of mathematics, one has to do just that.

Researchers at the Institute for Atmospheric and Earth System Research (INAR) at the University of Helsinki have found that modern weather models can accurately predict the energy that Earth emits and reflects into space, which directly affects the movements of low Earth-orbiting (LEO) satellites.

Wind power is a source of energy that is both affordable and renewable.

Trains carrying loads of coal bring with them higher rates of asthma, heart disease, hospitalization and death for residents living nearest the rail lines, according to a new study from the University of California, Davis.

Companies can’t simply walk away from old oil and gas wells.

Like boulders, rocks, and pebbles scattered across a landscape, asteroids come in a wide range of sizes. 

Animal and plant populations have been extensively studied, which has helped to understand ecosystem processes and evolutionary adaptations. 

The warming climate shifts the dynamics of tundra environments and makes them release trapped carbon, according to a new study published in Nature. 

A new tool – the Municipal Flood Risk Check-Up – launched today by the University of Waterloo's Intact Centre on Climate Adaptation, will help Canadian municipalities to assess flood hazards, level of flood preparedness, and actions to limit future flood risk.
