The effect of last Summer’s marine heatwave and coral bleaching will not be known until further surveys are completed this year

A new study says that many of the ice shelves ringing Antarctica could be vulnerable to quick destruction if rising temperatures drive melt water into the numerous fractures that currently penetrate their surfaces.

The world is moving too slowly in its efforts to confront climate change, and some communities are already experiencing serious losses because of limits to adaptation that leave bases uncovered.

Previous CU Boulder studies have looked at individual fire sites and found that forests recovered slowly or not at all.

While the rate of losses has declined, the ecosystems are still threatened and are facing more environmental stress.

High-resolution NASA satellite data have made it possible for scientists to develop maps showing the "quality" of tropical forests.

Some experts believe storms are forming later in the season as the Earth continues to get hotter.

Researchers also observed size and compositional differences by region and season.
