Scientists Revisit Climate Predictions as Ocean Data Raises New Questions ...

Ice-sheet melt temporarily intensified Southern Ocean stratification between ice ages and warmer interglacial periods, thus ...

The Pacific Ocean is warming so quickly that scientists had to find a new method for detecting and predicting El Niño and La Niña events.

A new study shows that during the last two deglaciations, i.e., the transition from an ice age to the warm interglacial periods, meltwater from the Antarctic ice sheet intensified stratification in ...

Scientists can now follow the path of a single drop of water across the globe. Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and some of these atoms naturally ...

Earth’s oceans absorbed another record volume of heat in 2025, reinforcing a pattern that climate scientists say is accelerating ice loss in the Arctic and storing energy that will shape weather ...

A new study shows that during the last two deglaciations, i.e., the transition from an ice age to the warm interglacial periods, meltwater from the Antarctic ice sheet intensified stratification in ...

Scientists first outlined the prospect of a Hothouse Earth in 2018, warning that cascading tipping points could lock the planet into sustained warming well above 4C for thousands of years. The new ...

Scientists have developed a powerful new way to trace the journey of water across the planet by reading tiny atomic clues hidden inside it. Slightly heavier versions of hydrogen and oxygen, called ...

Scientists say multiple Earth system components appear closer to destabilization than previously believed, putting the planet at increased risk of a “hothouse” trajectory driven by feedback loops that ...

Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are ...
