A report comes in: Smoke is rising from a remote area of the Amazon.

Anthropogenic aerosols — aerosols originating from human activity — and greenhouse gases, or GHGs, have helped modulate the storage and distribution of heat in oceans since the industrial age.

Rising global temperatures are making it harder for birds to know when it’s spring and time to breed according to a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

In an article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Michael Mann, professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Science in the School of Arts & Sciences, and colleagues from Clemson University, the University of California Los Angeles, and Columbia University investigated the effects of climate change on exacerbating compounding heat and drought situations.

New technology developed by Rice University engineers could lower the cost of capturing carbon dioxide from all types of emissions, a potential game-changer for both industries looking to adapt to evolving greenhouse gas standards and for the emergent energy-transition economy.

An international team of researchers has sequenced the genomes of 24 Antarctic fish species to investigate how they survive the extreme cold. 

Birds need to adapt to climate change, but evolution is a slow process.

A new study finds that human-caused climate change and large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns have contributed to an increase in extreme cold winter weather in China.

The Atlantic Ocean is extremely warm right now—fuel for gnarlier hurricanes. But will a burgeoning El Niño butt in and stop the storms before they start?

Rutgers-led study suggests ongoing oxygen loss from the seas due to climate change may reverse in the future.
