Man-made soot contributed to warming in Greenland in the early 20th century
New research shows that industrial development in North America between 1850 and 1950 greatly increased the amount of black carbon--commonly known as soot-- that fell on Greenland's glaciers and ice sheets. view more (2007-08-10)
Latest IPCC report highlights need for integrated climate/human behavior models
Adapting to the global climate change impacts outlined in the IPCC's Working Group 2 Report, "Climate Change 2007: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability", will require new evaluation tools to help choose the best way forward, according to the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP), an international network of environmental... view more...

Planet-sized solutions for global warming: International experts evaluate the options
Big ideas for reducing the impacts of climate change are being evaluated by an international line-up of leading scientists from the US, mainland Europe and the UK at a symposium in Cambridge this week. The scientists are coming together to evaluate which large-scale bio-engineering, geo-engineering and chemical engineering ideas to combat global... view more... (2004-01-05)
Aerosols - their part in our rainfall
Aerosols may have a greater impact on patterns of Australian rainfall and future climate change than previously thought, according to leading atmospheric scientist, CSIRO's Dr Leon Rotstayn. view more (2009-02-12)
Andrill demonstrates climate warming affects Antarctic ice sheet stability
A five-nation scientific team has published new evidence that even a slight rise in atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, one of the gases that drives global warming, affects the stability of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS). view more (2009-03-19)
Geoengineering climate requires more research, cautious consideration and appropriate restrictions
Geoengineering - deliberately manipulating physical, chemical, or biological aspects of the Earth system to confront climate change - could contribute to a comprehensive risk management strategy to slow climate change but could also create considerable new risks. view more (2009-07-22)
Cardiac fibrillation of the climate
In the current issue of the Scientific Journal Nature Geoscience a group of Norwegian, Swiss and German geoscientists prove that before the set-in of the Holocene very rapid climate changes already existed. view more (2009-02-17)
Superfloods hit the capital @ London `Catastrophes` conference
Flooding of the world`s coastal lowlands has the potential to generate major future catastrophes. The melting of the great ice sheets in North America and Asia at the end of the last ice age caused extreme flood events that changed global climate and played an important role in human settlement and migration. These `superfloods` are probably the... view more... (2002-08-17)
Alpine glaciers could all but disappear within this century
he European Alps could lose some 80 percent of their glacier cover by the end of this century, if summer air temperatures rise by three degrees Celsius [five degrees Fahrenheit]. And if temperatures increase by five degrees Celsius [nine degrees Fahrenheit], the Alps would become almost completely ice-free by 2100. view more (2006-07-10)
Record highs far outpace record lows across US
Spurred by a warming climate, daily record high temperatures occurred twice as often as record lows over the last decade across the continental United States, new research shows. view more (2009-11-13)
Stratospheric ozone chemistry plays an important role for atmospheric airflow patterns
Interactions between the stratospheric ozone chemistry and atmospheric air flow lead to significant changes of airflow patterns from the ground up to the stratosphere. view more (2008-03-10)
Eating less red meat can prevent cancer, heart attacks and global warming
Raising livestock also accounts for around 18% of greenhouse gases. It is therefore possible to act against climate change and reduce cardiovascular and cancer deaths, by cutting the production and consumption of 'red meat' from these animals. view more (2009-08-31)
New Director for Zuckerman Institute
The University of East Anglia (UEA) is pleased to announce that Professor Kerry Turner will be Director of the new Zuckerman Institute for Connective Environmental Research. Professor Turner is currently Director of the Centre for Social and Economic Research on the Global Environment (CSERGE) based in the School of Environmental Sciences, and he... view more...

Lund University part of EU project on global land destruction
The EU is now entering an agreement with Lund University regarding research into the desertification. The background is that 40 research organizations from 16 countries recently gathered in Madrid to launch an EU project (DeSurvey) about land degradation and desertification in Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. The EU funding is about SEK 75... view more... (2005-04-14)
Decline in uptake of carbon emissions confirmed
A decline in the proportion of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions absorbed by land and oceans is speeding up the growth of atmospheric CO2, according to a paper published today in the US Journal: Proceedings of the National Academy of Science. view more (2007-10-25)
Aphids are sentinels of climate change
Aphids are emerging as sentinels of climate change, researchers at BBSRC-supported Rothamsted Research have shown. One of the UK's most damaging aphids - the peach-potato aphid (Myzus persicae) - has been found to be flying two weeks earlier for every 1 degree C rise in mean temperature for January and February combined. view more (2008-08-07)
Martian Snow Source of Tropical Glaciers, Research Team Reports
Snow is the source of glacial deposits found at the base of the majestic volcanoes and mountains dotting the mid-latitude and tropical regions of Mars. view more (2006-01-20)
Change on the range
In the Southwestern U.S., land managers face equally critical and difficult decisions when it comes to their ranges. view more (2007-08-14)
Ecologists follow the footprints of Scott
Important new data from the plant fossil record that are helping ecologists to improve the accuracy of climate change models will be announced at the British Ecological Society symposium at the Society for Experimental Biology's annual meeting, being held at the University of Southampton between 1 and 4 April 2003. Dr Colin Osborne and his... view more... (2003-03-26)
Australia's climate: Drought and flooding in annual rings of tropical trees
Annual rings are acclaimed in representing natural climate archives. For the temperate latitudes it is known that the growth of these annual rings depend mainly on temperature and precipitation. view more (2009-06-12)
