On February 6, 2025, after years of preparation and four months of intense planning, an aircraft with an advanced NASA instrument took off for the AVUELO campaign’s first survey in the tropics, while teams on the ground spread out to collect ground-truth data. 

The rapid melting and thinning of the Arctic ice have sparked serious concerns in the scientific community.

Conserving and restoring Southeast Asia’s carbon-rich peatlands and mangroves could mitigate more than 50 per cent of the region’s land-use carbon emissions, according to a new international study published in Nature Communications.

Scientists have developed a novel tool designed to protect and conserve coral reefs by providing them with an abundance of feeding opportunities. 

Scientists have discovered microplastics in the snow near some of Antarctica’s deep field camps, revealing how far-reaching plastic pollution has become.

Northwestern researchers have developed a specialized sponge that slurps up pollutants, offering a reusable and cost-effective solution to water contamination.

Small plastic particles are omnipresent in our environment, posing a potential threat to species, but the difficulty is knowing how best to measure concentrations.

The research is the first field-based confirmation of such climate impacts.
