New research shows storms in the Southern Ocean are producing more rainfall, revealing a major shift in one of Earth’s most important climate systems. Macquarie Island sits in the remote Southern ...

A new study led by researchers at the Earth-Life Science Institute (ELSI) at Institute of Science Tokyo challenges a long-standing assumption about Earth's most extreme ice ages. Using numerical ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. New satellite data reveal Earth’s Northern Hemisphere is absorbing more solar energy than the South, threatening to disrupt global ...

A peer-reviewed study published in Nature Geoscience has found that during Earth’s most extreme ancient warming periods, between 66 and 47.8 million years ago, rainfall across mid-latitude regions ...

Antarctica is a vital component of Earth's climate system, influencing global sea level, ocean circulation, and planetary albedo. Recent research has revealed something remarkable. The continent doesn ...

Coral reefs around the globe have for years suffered publicly in warming oceans, periodically making headlines when iconic underwater landscapes lose their colors and wither during repeated mass ...

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 ...

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 ...

Earth’s climate balance isn’t just governed by the slow weathering of silicate rocks, which capture carbon and stabilize temperature over eons. New research reveals that biological and oceanic ...

Reducing air pollution has paradoxically accelerated global warming by removing sunlight-reflecting particles, a phenomenon akin to a mild “termination shock.” Large-scale geoengineering schemes, such ...
