How does the smell of the sea impact the world’s climate? 

An international team of scientists from Sweden, Norway, Japan, and Switzerland, has presented research findings that reveal a crucial role of biological particles, including pollen, spores, and bacteria, in the formation of ice within Arctic clouds. 

Scientists using space-based radar found that land in New York City is sinking at varying rates from human and natural factors. 

Once celebrated as a symbol of modern innovation, plastic has become the boon and bane of our time.

Antarctic sea ice reached its lowest maximum extent on record on Sept. 10 at a time when the ice cover should have been growing at a much faster pace during the darkest and coldest months.

The findings from new research, led by University of Arizona dendrochronologist Bryan Black, could have implications for seismic preparedness measures in the region.

Redwoods and oaks that thrive on California’s coastline and coastal mountains might soon start finding it harder to survive. 

Past cycles of climate change, along with human exploitation, have led to only small and isolated stocks of Atlantic walrus remaining.

A research team led by principal investigator Yongjie Huang, a research scientist with the University of Oklahoma’s College of Atmospheric and Geographic Sciences, has received funding from the Department of Energy to study the complex interactions between convective clouds and their surrounding environments to improve weather prediction.

Arctic sea ice likely reached its annual minimum extent on Sept. 19, 2023, making it the sixth-lowest year in the satellite record, according to researchers at NASA and the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC).
