We reflect on the current state of climate modeling and the future divergent paths that have been proposed for a step change that leverages different tools. We review the history of successful Earth ...
The National Science Foundation has begun dismantling a major ocean monitoring network more than a decade earlier than planned. Some scientists say it will be a “tragic” loss of crucial information ...
Internal climate variability (ICV) remains a major source of uncertainty in climate projections, complicating impact assessments across critical sectors, especially at stakeholder-relevant scales.
Researchers at the University of Bristol have developed a new method which could help scientists perform large-scale climate simulations at a fraction of the cost and time needed compared to ...
A new research study from The University of Alabama in Huntsville, a part of the University of Alabama System, addresses a central question of climate change research: how much warming can be expected ...
Global scientists warn that humanity is on the verge of crossing irreversible climate thresholds, with coral reefs already at their tipping point and polar ice sheets possibly beyond recovery. The ...
The Amazon rainforest is so big that it makes its own climate. As they photosynthesise and transpire, its billions of trees collectively produce enough moisture to form clouds. These, by some ...
Roy Spencer was a Visiting Fellow in The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Energy, Climate, and Environment. The observed rate of global warming over the past 50 years has been weaker than that ...
Coral reefs in Kenya, Senegal, Cape Verde, Tanzania, Mozambique and Madagascar have been hit hard by rapidly warming seawater. Sirachai Arunrugstichai/Getty Images New research has found that the ...
Scientists have uncovered a missing feedback in Earth’s carbon cycle that could cause global warming to overshoot into an ice age. As the planet warms, nutrient-rich runoff fuels plankton blooms that ...
The Earth’s atmosphere is nothing but freely roaming molecules. Left alone, they would drift and collide, and eventually even out into a mixture that’s dynamic, yet stable and broadly unchanging. The ...
AUSTIN (KXAN) — Our climate is changing, creating problems that are being tackled by the scientists and policy makers of today, but who will study the changing climate in the years to come? Until ...
