To study the origin and evolution of the universe, physicists rely on theories that describe the statistical relationships between different events or fields in spacetime, broadly referred to as cosmological correlations. Kinematic parameters are essentially Read More

As deforestation and climate change threaten to transform the Amazon, there is growing concern that the ecosystem may be reaching an irreversible tipping point, beyond which self-reinforcing feedback loops would lock the system in a Read More
Toby, a fun-loving Labrador, was a beloved member of the Murphy household. So, when the family noticed patches of hair loss and red, itchy skin on his paws and legs, they were concerned. Still, they Read More
Human-caused climate change made a recent Nordic heatwave about 2C hotter, putting a strain on healthcare, ecosystems and indigenous Sami reindeer herders in a region ill-equipped for such events, researchers said on Thursday. Summary A Read More
Periods of extreme heat often lead to increased exposure to ground-level ozone, in addition to other negative effects. This is dangerous for humans, the environment and agriculture. A study led by Forschungszentrum Jülich now Read More
Antarctica’s deep canyons shape oceans and climate. High-resolution maps show striking regional differences. Submarine canyons rank among the most striking and complex geological structures on the ocean floor, yet many remain poorly understood, particularly Read More
Kemal Ozdemir looked up at the bare peaks of Mount Cilo in Turkey’s Kurdish majority southeast: “There were glaciers 10 years ago,” he recalled under a cloudless sky. Summary Kemal Ozdemir, gazing at the now-barren Read More
Climate change is significantly affecting forest ecosystems through rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and increased frequency of extreme weather events. Tropical forests are particularly vulnerable to these changes, and the forestry sector is expected to Read More
Climate change intensifies marine heat waves, threatening ocean biodiversity and
The long-term impacts of marine heat waves on biodiversity and management strategies required to mitigate further damage were the focus of a review by researchers at The University of Western Australia. Summary A University of Read More
Researchers have modeled sea level changes on thousand-year timescales for the past 540 million years. These insights offer better tools for mapping subsurface layers used in energy and waste storage. Earth’s sea levels have fluctuated Read More
