Research reveals that some plants have an advantage in coping with dry and stressful conditions.

Since breaking from the Brunt Ice Shelf in May 2024, a large Antarctic iceberg spent the first few months of its existence mostly hemmed in by the surrounding glue-like sea ice, especially in the new rifts. 

The common practice of building dams to prevent flooding can actually contribute to more intense coastal flood events, according to a new study.

A nationwide analysis of community-level floodplain development found that over two-million acres of floodplain were developed over the past two decades across the United States, with roughly half of all new floodplain housing built in Florida.

A new study from UKCEH scientists shows that extreme soil moisture droughts in the UK – those lasting 90 days or more - are expected to occur more frequently under climate change.

McGill University researchers have harnessed the power of sunlight to transform two of the most harmful greenhouse gases into valuable chemicals.

Existing global energy projections underestimate the impact of climate change on urban heating and cooling systems by roughly 50% by 2099 if greenhouse gas emissions remain high, researchers report.

A very warm August wrapped up an extremely hot summer across the U.S., with many cities breaking all-time heat records.

Mega ocean warming El Niño events were key in driving the largest extinction of life on planet Earth some 252 million years ago, according to new research.

A multi-institutional study, led by Dartmouth Engineering Professor Hélène Seroussi, extends scientists' predictions of how greenhouse gas emissions will likely affect sea-level rise beyond the twenty‐first century.
