Solar Contribution To 'Global Warming' Predicted To Decrease
New research on the sun's contribution to global warming is reported in this month's Astronomy & Geophysics. By looking at solar activity over the last 11,000 years, British Antarctic Survey (BAS) astrophysicist, Mark Clilverd, predicts that the sun's contribution to warming the Earth will reduce slightly over the next 100 years. This is a... view more... (2003-10-01)
Dried mushrooms slow climate warming in Northern forests
The fight against climate warming has an unexpected ally in mushrooms growing in dry spruce forests covering Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia and other northern regions, a new UC Irvine study finds. view more (2008-11-03)
Errors in the measurement of global warming corrected
The effect of the sun's heat on weather balloons largely accounts for a data discrepancy that has long contributed to a dispute over the existence of global warming, according to a report by scientists at Yale University and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). view more (2005-08-12)
Global warming: Our best guess is likely wrong
No one knows exactly how much Earth's climate will warm due to carbon emissions, but a new study this week suggests scientists' best predictions about global warming might be incorrect. view more (2009-07-15)
NASA study links Earth impacts to human-caused climate change
A new NASA-led study shows human-caused climate change has made an impact on a wide range of Earth's natural systems, including permafrost thawing, plants blooming earlier across Europe, and lakes declining in productivity in Africa. view more (2008-05-15)
Increase in atmospheric moisture tied to human activities
Observations and climate model results confirm that human-induced warming of the planet is having a pronounced effect on the atmosphere's total moisture content. view more (2007-09-18)
Arctic land and seas account for up to 25 percent of world's carbon sink
In a new study in the journal Ecological Monographs, ecologists estimate that Arctic lands and oceans are responsible for up to 25 percent of the global net sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide. view more (2009-10-15)
Global warming increasing the dispersal of flora in Northern forests
As a result of stronger winds caused by global warming, seeds and pollen are being carried over longer distances. view more (2009-06-12)
Survey: Scientists agree human-induced global warming is real
While the harsh winter pounding many areas of North America and Europe seemingly contradicts the fact that global warming continues unabated, a new survey finds consensus among scientists about the reality of climate change and its likely cause. view more (2009-01-20)
Crops feel the heat as the world warms
Over a span of two decades, warming temperatures have caused annual losses of roughly $5 billion for major food crops, according to a new study by researchers at the Carnegie Institution and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. view more (2007-03-16)
Scientists discover new ocean current
Scientists at Georgia Tech have discovered a new climate pattern, the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation. This pattern explains, for the first time, changes in the water important in helping commercial fishermen understand fluctuations in the fish stock. They're also finding that as the Earth is warming, large fluctuations in these factors could help... view more... (2008-05-01)
Global warming is reducing ocean life, increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide, say scientists
Alarming new satellite data show that the warming of the world's oceans is reducing ocean life while contributing to increased global warming. view more (2006-12-07)
Scientists debate the accuracy of Al Gore's documentary
There is no question that Al Gore's 2006 documentary An Inconvenient Truth is a powerful example of how scientific knowledge can be communicated to a lay audience. What is up for debate is whether it accurately presents the scientific argument that global warming is caused by human activities. view more (2008-04-15)
Man-Made Climate Change
A new study published in this week's issue of Nature is the first to show that human activity is altering the circulation of the tropical atmosphere and ocean through global warming. view more (2006-05-04)
Ocean warming on the rise
Increased scientific confidence that ocean observations are accurately reflecting rising global temperatures is central to new Australian research published today in the journal, Nature. view more (2008-06-19)
Greenland's thinning ice sheet could be saved by snow
A study conducted by an expert at the University of Sheffield and officials at NASA has found that while Greenland's ice is certainly thinning, snowfall in some areas is increasing, with levels in south-east Greenland in the past year being three times higher than is usual. This opens debate as to how global warming will affect Greenland's ice... view more... (2004-12-20)
Glimpse to past adds weight to global warming forecasts
A new examination of the period of global warming that planet Earth underwent 130,000 years ago is helping scientists to confirm the accuracy of projections for the next century - particularly over Canada's North. view more (2006-03-24)
First direct evidence that human activity is linked to Antarctic Ice Shelf collapse
The first direct evidence linking human activity to the collapse of Antarctic ice shelves is published this week in the Journal of Climate. view more (2006-10-17)
NASA Study Links "Smog" to Arctic Warming
NASA scientists have found that a major form of global air pollution involved in summertime "smog" has also played a significant role in warming the Arctic. view more (2006-03-15)
Foresight for physics technologies is healthy - The Physics Congress 2002
The key role of physics in delivering solutions to problems such as climate change and global warming was highlighted by Professor David King, Head of the Office of Science and Technology and Government Chief Scientific Adviser, in a talk to scientific innovators at the Institute of Physics Annual Congress in Brighton today. Citing ARM, the... view more... (2002-04-08)
