Oct. 9, 2020 — Fluctuations in the weather can have a significant impact on melting Antarctic ice, and models that do not include this factor can underestimate the global impact of sea level rise, according to ...
Oct. 9, 2020 — Scientists showed increased temperature and acidification of our oceans over the next century could have a range of effects on an economically important marine ...
Oct. 7, 2020 — Researchers have found varying projections on global warming trends put forth by climate change scientists can be explained by differing models' predictions regarding ice loss and atmospheric ...
Oct. 7, 2020 — Ringed seals and other Arctic marine mammals are important in the diet of Arctic Indigenous peoples. A study spanning 45 years of testing indicates that mercury concentrations in ringed seals from ...
Oct. 7, 2020 — Projections of potentially dramatic sea-level rise from ice-sheet melting in Antarctica have been wide-ranging, but a Rutgers-led team has created a model that enables improved projections and could ...
Oct. 2, 2020 — The Earth's nature reserves are set to be affected by future climate change in very different ways. Detailed local knowledge of climate change impacts can therefore make a significant ...
Oct. 2, 2020 — Global warming is driving an unprecedented rise in sea temperatures including in the Mediterranean, according to a major new ...
Oct. 2, 2020 — Researchers analyzed these geographic regions, which include cities like New Orleans, Bangkok, and Shanghai, using a new global dataset to determine how many people live on river deltas, how many are ...

Sep. 29, 2020 — A 10-year effort by China to improve air quality and reduce pollution-related health risks has caused warming in areas across the northern hemisphere, according to new ...
Sep. 29, 2020 — Climate warming will alter marine community compositions as species are expected to shift poleward, significantly impacting the Arctic marine ...
Sep. 28, 2020 — Clean air, clean water and a functioning ecosystem are considered priceless. Yet accounting for the economic value of nature has large implications for climate policy, a new study ...
Sep. 28, 2020 — As the globe warms, the atmosphere is becoming more unstable, but the oceans are becoming more stable, according to an international team of climate scientists, who say that the increase in stability ...
Sep. 25, 2020 — Heatwaves in the world's oceans have become over 20 times more frequent due to human influence. This is what researchers are now able to demonstrate. Marine heatwaves destroy ecosystems and ...
Sep. 17, 2020 — Over 99% of terrestrial ice is bound up in the ice sheets covering Antarctic and Greenland. Even partial melting of this ice due to climate change will significantly contribute to sea level rise. But ...
Sep. 17, 2020 — In a simulation study, researchers showed that limiting global warming to 1.5°C rather than 2°C will mitigate aridification in some regions of the world including the Mediterranean, western Europe, ...
