Blowing Snow Contributes to Arctic Warming
When it comes to global warming trends, the Arctic is a troubling outlier.
Clouds Formed With Sea Salt Contribute to Arctic Warming
Scientists studying Arctic warming have shared new evidence that sea salt aerosols from “blowing snow” play a significant role in forming clouds that reflect solar radiation back to the Earth’s surface.
Extreme El Niño Weather Switched Off South American's Carbon Sink
Tropical forests in South America lose their ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere when conditions become exceptionally hot and dry, according to new research.
Researchers Find Antarctic Ice Shelves Thinner Than Previously Thought
As global ice dams begin to weaken due to warming temperatures, a new study suggests that prior attempts to evaluate the mass of the huge floating ice shelves that line the Antarctic ice sheet may have overestimated their thickness.
Electrifying Heavy-Duty Vehicles Could Reduce Environmental Inequalities
If the region surrounding Chicago — North America’s largest freight hub — shifted just 30% of its current on-road heavy-duty vehicles to electric versions, it would substantially reduce pollution and save hundreds of lives per year, with the benefits largely concentrated in disadvantaged communities, according to a new Northwestern University-led study.
