A team of scientists has identified an additional force that likely contributed to a mass extinction event 250 million years ago.

Scientists used data on more than 9,000 soil samples from around the world, and found that carbon storage "declines strongly" as average temperatures increase.

New research shows that improved air quality caused by reducing emissions from burning fossil fuels and other sources could improve human health and prevent economic losses.

Texas A&M scientist has found that late season storms to have greater potential for intensifying than early season storms.

Researchers call for updating impact of greenhouse gas that remains top threat to the ozone layer

Tiny marine plants called phytoplankton are the foundation of most food webs in the ocean, and their productivity drives commercial fisheries, carbon sequestration, and healthy marine ecosystems.

New research led by Mohammad Masnadi, assistant professor of chemical and petroleum engineering at the University of Pittsburgh Swanson School of Engineering, offers a closer look at the relationship between decreasing demand for oil and a resilient, varied oil market–and the carbon footprint associated with both. 

The prediction of high impact climate phenomena can be substantially improved by a new mathematical approach that analyses the connectivity and patterns between geographical locations, scientists say in a new publication. 

Abrupt changes in ice core samples and other records indicate dramatic changes in climate occurred at certain points in the past.

Researcher notes that this paper reveals multiple distinct stories about how air quality changes in response to growing agricultural activity across Africa
