Researchers from the U.S. and the UK have discovered a way to accurately predict Arctic sea ice patterns in real time. Using regional data, they identified ways to improve short-term ice-melt and ...
“We demonstrate that in the past, the eruption of large volcanic eruptions situated near the equator caused a collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation that led to abrupt climate ...
The Pacific Ocean is warming so quickly that scientists had to find a new method for detecting and predicting El Niño and La ...
A look at what we know and don't yet know about how climate change could affect the paths of these storms — and the all-important question of how often they'll make landfall.
Fresh evidence from sediment cores, satellite records, and deep-ocean sensors is converging on a troubling finding: meltwater ...
As weather becomes less predictable, cities may scale back snow-removal budgets or emergency planning — leaving residents ...
The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.
