Purdue University engineers have developed a method to transform existing cloth items into battery-free wearables resistant to laundry. 

How much do the effects of climate change contribute to extreme weather events? 

Lack of water, floods, or crop losses: As a result of climate change, pronounced periods of drought and rainfall are occurring more frequently and more intensively all around the world, causing human suffering and major economic damage. 

Soot particles from oil and wood heating systems as well as road traffic can pollute the air in Europe on a much larger scale than previously assumed. 

The type of material present under glaciers has a big impact on how fast they slide towards the ocean. 

Palaeoclimatologists study climate of the geological past. 

When lockdowns during the coronavirus pandemic cut local nitrogen oxide emissions, the effect on ozone pollution was global and unexpectedly rapid.

Such detailed maps could help policymakers choose the most effective ways of cutting carbon emissions.

Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute scientists are one step closer to understanding why some corals can weather climate change better than others, and the secret could be in a specific protein that produces a natural sunscreen.

A consortium of French laboratories, the ALPALGA project, has set out to study the little understood communities of microalgae that live in mountains, including some that turn snow orange or red, a phenomenon known as “glacier blood.”
