The mission is expected to help scientists understand the factors driving tropical cyclone intensification and to improve forecasting models.

A team of scientists has developed more accurate forecasts to predict the impacts of wildfire smoke on air quality.

A team of scientists have used satellite data to detect methane plumes from an offshore platform in the Gulf of Mexico.

Thanks to climate change, high-elevation forests in the Central Cascade mountains of the Pacific Northwest are burning more frequently and expansively than in the recent past, prompting researchers and fire managers to question whether forests will be able to recover from these emerging fire patterns and whether they will require human assistance to do so.

A tortoise from a Galápagos species long believed extinct has been found alive and now confirmed to be a living member of the species. 

Astronomers have found only the second example of a highly active, repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) with a compact source of weaker but persistent radio emission between bursts. 

The features of the ocean floor help determine how water masses and ocean currents move and how they affect our climate. 

Investments in the environment are paying off for a California county where projects designed to restore the natural environment are also buffering the impacts of sea-level rise, according to a new study by Stanford researchers.

New research finds climate change is having an impact on how large whale species, including the critically endangered North Atlantic right whale, use habitats in the warming Gulf of Maine, showing that right whales’ use of Cape Cod Bay has shifted significantly over the last 20 years.

New evidence suggests that two major glaciers in the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) are losing ice at the fastest rate for at least 5,500 years.
