Accurate measurements are the foundation of effective environmental management and decision-making. Through advanced monitoring networks and computer models, Ken Davis, professor of meteorology and ...
As the planet warms, many expected ecosystems to change faster and faster. Instead, a massive global study shows that species turnover has slowed by about one-third since the 1970s. Nature’s constant ...
Climate change science examines how alterations in Earth’s energy balance—primarily through rising concentrations of greenhouse gases—drive shifts in atmospheric, oceanic, cryospheric and land-surface ...
The recent report released by Energy Secretary Chris Wright on the climate impacts of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the U.S. has caused quite a stir in the climate science arena. “Outrage,” ...
For nearly four decades, scientists with a reputational and financial stake in the game and compliant, uninquisitive mainstream media have told the public one thing consistently about climate change: ...
Human-driven climate change is slowing Earth's rotation at a rate not seen in 3.6 million years, with sea level rise increasing the length of days by 1.33 milliseconds per century, according to a new ...
