When it comes to global warming and climate change, we often hear news stories about tipping points where Earth's systems shift into a new and dangerous state. One such may have been reached in the year 2000 that caused tropical weather cycles to have a greater effect on autumn sea ice melt across the Laptev and East Siberian seas, according to a study published in Science Advances.
Small countries prone to extreme weather may face the highest sovereign risks from climate change in coming years, according to new research.
About a year ago, researchers at the University of Michigan found that the extratropical cyclones that are the biggest drivers of winter weather in the Great Lakes region are warming and trending northward. That means, outside of the northern reaches of the region, residents can expect that their winters will be warmer and wetter on average.
Over the past decade, southern Australia has suffered numerous extreme weather and climate events, such as record-breaking heat waves, bushfires, two major droughts and even flash flooding.
A new study has identified a distinct climate precursor in the Mediterranean Sea that can predict winter precipitation levels in the Levant months in advance. The study, published in Weather and Climate Dynamics, is titled "Mediterranean Sea heat uptake variability as a precursor to winter precipitation in the Levant."
From a bird's eye view, the Amazon rainforest appears as a lush green mosaic of treetops stretching as far as the eye can see. It is home to countless animal and plant species, many of which are endemic, and the forest plays an important role in the global climate as a carbon sink. However, deforestation threatens to destroy this unique ecosystem and its important functions. One-fifth of the area has already been cleared, and there is no end in sight to this intensive use. This has serious consequences for biodiversity and the global and regional climate.
Climate Forecast System of US suspects the variously wet and violent weather may continue to hold into AprilÂ
Snow, tornadoes, record-breaking heat, a dust storm — and that’s just last weekend. Here’s how to understand what’s going on, and the role climate change is playing in all of it.
Agronomists at Washington State University are unveiling a new apple, the Sunflare, which they say tastes as good as their Cosmic Crisp but can withstand unpredictable weather.
From deadly heat waves to unprecedented flooding, devastating wildfires to record-breaking droughts, extreme weather is becoming the new normal. As climate-fueled shocks multiply, some creatures in our oceans, forests, deserts and grasslands will manage to cope and bounce back. But new research from Michigan State University asks: could some species and ecosystems not only survive shocks, but thrive because of them?
