Greenland is losing ice faster than in the 1990s and is tracking the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s high-end climate scenario.

Understanding what influences the amount of methane in the atmosphere has been identified by the American Geophysical Union to be one of the foremost challenges in the earth sciences in the coming decades because of methane’s hugely important role in meeting climate warming targets.

The identification of natural carbon sinks and understanding how they work is critical if humans are to mitigate global climate change. 

The increase in carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere has warmed the Earth since the beginning of the industrial era. 

The Arctic region is heating up faster than any other place on Earth, and as more and more sea ice is lost every year, we are already feeling the impacts.

Cold cloud top temperatures can tell forecasters if a tropical cyclone has the potential to generate heavy rainfall, and that is exactly what NASA’s Aqua satellite found when it observed the temperatures in Tropical Cyclone Belna over northwestern Madagascar.

New study reveals that 90 percent of urban dust comes from dry lakebeds.

The actual amount of precipitation is generally underestimated in the case of snowfall. Meteorologists are working on methods that are already in use to measure precipitation more accurately.

The annual Carbon Budget report found that CO2 emissions are projected to rise again for 2019, but at slower rate than in previous years, says atmospheric sciences professor Atul Jain.

Snowstorms can wreak havoc across the United States, but especially on the East Coast.
