Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are called isotopes. As water evaporates or moves through the atmosphere, the ...

Tiny marine plankton that build calcium carbonate shells play an outsized role in regulating Earth’s climate, quietly pulling carbon from the atmosphere and helping lock it away in the deep ocean. New ...

As the climate crisis intensifies, carbon reduction is no longer a distant policy goal, it has become an immediate urban ...

We've been watching temperatures climb, extreme weather events intensify, and ice sheets shrink. Every weather forecast and ...

This video exposes a massive flaw in climate science: satellites and models rely on data measured almost entirely in Europe and the U.S., leaving the rest of the world wildly misrepresented. In places ...

People often think of a heatwave as a temporary event, a brutal week of sun that eventually breaks with a cool breeze. But as the climate changes globally, in parts of Africa, that level of heat is ...

Over the past 60 years, scientists have largely succeeded in building a computer model of Earth to see what the future holds. One of the most ambitious projects humankind has ever undertaken has now ...

The report warns many economic models are failing to capture extreme weather events and rising uncertainty likely to dominate ...

The repeated claim that climate science is “settled” overlooks myriad uncertainties, competing mechanisms and computer models ...
