This study is the culmination of 20 years of research by Brad Seibel on vertical migrators that has included scores of dives like this one.…
An increasingly warm and ice-free Arctic Ocean has, in recent decades, led to more moisture in higher latitudes. This moisture is transported south by cyclonic…
It is estimated that melting ice in the Antarctic could sea levels to rise by up to 50 meters. A new study charts 45,000,000 years…
Because of the large fluctuations in ocean levels caused by changing tides, currents, and winds, sea level fingerprints have been notoriously difficult to detect. The…
Researchers have discovered that forests are increasing in wood volume due to elevated carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Researchers have discovered that trees are…
According to new research, refreezing the poles by reducing incoming sunlight would be both feasible and remarkably cheap. Earth’s poles are warming several times faster…
The scientists believe that greenhouse gases are primarily responsible for the increased temperatures. Researchers find that human activities increase the chance of more intense heat…
The researchers expect animals such as the Arctic fox, stoat, and common shrew to be more impacted by climate change. A new study investigates which…
The Thwaites and Pine Island glaciers have been retreating at an accelerated pace and have already increased global sea levels. A study finds that two…
