Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, and they run on the world’s largest ...

Scientists have discovered that methane in the open ocean is produced by microbes under nutrient-poor conditions, solving a ...

As a grueling March heat wave batters the U.S. West with dangerous temperatures, and the world girds itself for what could be another sizzling record-smashing Super El Niño, a team of researchers has ...

For decades, scientists have meticulously tracked and modeled Earth's climate, building an increasingly detailed picture of global warming. Yet, the complex dance of atmospheric gases, ocean currents, ...

Global warming does not affect our planet evenly. Some areas such as the Arctic region or high mountain peaks warm faster than the global average, whereas others, including large parts of the tropical ...

A new study finds that if global warming exceeds the Paris Climate Agreement targets, the non-polar glacier mass will diminish significantly. However, if warming is limited to 1.5 degrees Celsius, at ...

Current global climate models (GCMs) support with high confidence the view that rising greenhouse gases and other anthropogenic forcings account for nearly all observed global surface warming—slightly ...

New research suggests devastating climate outcomes that are typically associated with extreme global warming could hit even we limit heating to 3.6 F above preindustrial levels.

Attribution researches the influence of climate change on local weather and impacts. We issues alerts in many instances when the Climate Shift Index identifies a notable extreme weather event around ...
