Important ocean currents that redistribute heat, cold and precipitation between the tropics and the northernmost parts of the Atlantic region will shut down around the year 2060 if current greenhouse gas emissions persist. 

Arctic terns – which fly on the longest migrations of any animal on Earth – may be able to navigate the dangers posed by climate change, new research suggests.

Extreme heat and high levels of particulate pollution may double the risk of a deadly heart attack, a new study finds.

Over the last several years, the residents of Santa Monica, a coastal city on the edge of Los Angeles, saw something neither they, their parents, or perhaps even their grandparents had ever seen before: a three-foot-tall dune system rising gently from the flat, groomed expanse of one of the world’s most famous urban beaches.

In the state’s dry, nutrient-deficient soil, CU Boulder researchers and others aim to learn if the crop can survive and even thrive in a hotter, drier future.

Cold fronts play a role in making bushfires drastically worse – posing a serious concern for future bushfire events.

The ocean isn’t just impacted by climate change — it may also be part of the solution to reversing it. 

A Chapman University scientist and his colleagues have determined how the Earth responds as it heats up due to climate change.

CEAB-CSIC researchers have published a scientific article that helps to understand the intercontinental dispersion of harmful microorganisms through the atmosphere.

From 2000 to 2021, climate change caused the loss of more than 40 trillion liters (10 trillion gallons) of water in the Colorado River Basin — about equal to the entire storage capacity of Lake Mead — according to a new study that modeled humans’ impact on hydrology in the region.
