Ancient Dung Reveals How Dinosaurs Rose to Power Through Five Key Steps

Flowchart of the team’s model system, which integrates key concepts of the dynamics of atmospheric CO2, rising temperatures, human population, and crop yield.

Looming, Unpredictable Food Crisis from Climate Change

Pictured are two of the four absorber units at Climeworks’ direct air capture and storage plant, Orca, in Hellisheidi, Iceland. Each absorber unit can remove about 1,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year. Credits:Photo courtesy of Climeworks.

MIT Study Reveals Major Challenges with Carbon Removal Technology Plans

Workshop with community members to draw the map of their land.

Climate and Conflict: A Double Challenge for Vulnerable Communities

Afforestation at high latitudes disrupts soil, increasing microbial carbon decomposition and enhancing soil warming through snow trapping, while growing trees accelerate soil carbon turnover and reduce surface albedo. When a plantation is disturbed, albedo rises, but carbon stored in biomass decreases.

Arctic Tree Planting Could Actually Speed Up Global Warming, Scientists Warn

Image identifies where all 57 SIDS are located globally, including in the more concentrated regions of the Pacific (in red) and Caribbean (in black). Most SIDS are very small, meaning they have previously been missed out in global flood risk studies.

Island Nations That Pollute Least Face Highest Flood Risk

Climate Change, Not Rain Shortage, Drives Severe Western Droughts

Amount of edible pasture grasses and vegetation grown in each gridcell per year for grazing livestock (pasture aboveground biomass). Darker colors refer to more annual pasture growth per unit area. Green shows pasture growth in potential forest areas, where pasture has replaced areas that were once forested. Pink shows pasture growth in native grassland areas.

Small Meat Production Cuts in Wealthy Nations Could Have Major Climate Impact

Ancient DNA Reveals Epic Journey of Extinct Wild Cattle That Shaped Human History

The tower installed in a black spruce forest on permafrost in Fairbanks, Alaska, monitors CO2 exchange and environmental conditions in 30-minute intervals.

20-Year Study Reveals Surprising Climate Change Effects on Permafrost Forests

A BAS Twin Otter flies over Antarctic sea ice.

Arctic Sea Ice Loss Could Trigger Major Changes in Ocean Circulation

Map depicting the direction that the AMOC carries warm water, from the tropics to higher latitudes.

Slowing ocean current could ease Arctic warming — a little

This photo shows the rear paws of a polar bear temporarily sedated for research in East Greenland in 2022. The bear has large chunks of ice frozen onto its feet, which the researchers removed. It is one of two polar bears showing this type of buildup, which appears to be a new phenomenon affecting some polar bears in the Far North.

Arctic Climate Change Causing Severe Ice Injuries to Polar Bear Paws

The Rappbode reservoir in the Harz region is surrounded by forests and is the largest drinking water reservoir in Germany.
