Magnetofossils can tell us a lot about the conditions of the ocean during rapid warming of the past.

The virtual conferencing that has replaced large, in-person gatherings in the age of COVID-19 represents a drastic reduction in carbon emissions, but those online meetings still come with their own environmental costs, new research from the University of Michigan shows.

Antarctic ice is melting, contributing massive amounts of water to the world’s seas and causing them to rise – but that melt is not as linear and consistent as scientists previously thought, a new analysis of 20 years’ worth of satellite data indicates.

When aboveground storage tanks fail during a storm and their toxic contents spread, the threat to human health can and probably will flow downwind of the immediate area.

Several glaciers near Mount Everest have experienced unusual melting this winter.

Soil temperature influences land-atmosphere interaction within the Earth system, which is a primary component of "thermal regime" of the land, or a regular pattern of temperature change within the soil.

New particle formation (NPF) is a major source of aerosol particles in global atmosphere.

We know heatwaves and drought can turn bushfires into infernos, but the reasons why were poorly understood in science.

Finding has implications for one potential solar geoengineering strategy

The researchers of the Institute for Atmospheric and Earth system research at the University of Helsinki have investigated how atmospheric particles are formed in the Arctic.
