Tourism Leads the Pack in Growing Carbon Emissions
A University of Queensland-led study shows greenhouse gas emissions from tourism have been growing more than 2 times faster than those from the rest of the global economy.
Climate Change Impacting Freshwater Fish Species, Study Finds
Large-bodied migratory species such as Atlantic salmon are thriving as warming temperatures opens up new habitats at the poleward edge of their ranges.
Leap in Modelling Human Impact on Climate May Lead to Early Warning of Climate Disasters
A breakthrough in the theory of climate change science has given scientists the most robust way yet to link observed climate change to both human-made and natural causes and to spot early warning signals for potential climate disasters.
Antarctica’s Irregular Heartbeat Shows Signs of Rapid Melting
Periods of sudden melting in the Antarctic ice sheet have been unearthed in a new climate record from over 20 million years ago by geoscientists led by the University of Leicester and the University of Southampton.
Arctic Tundra Becoming Source of Carbon Dioxide Emissions
After storing carbon dioxide in frozen soil for millennia, the Arctic tundra is being transformed by frequent wildfires into an overall source of carbon to the atmosphere, which is already absorbing record levels of heat-trapping fossil fuel pollution.
