A change in the wind
Climate model simulations for the 21st century indicate a robust increase in wind shear in the tropical Atlantic due to global warming, which may inhibit hurricane development and intensification. view more (2007-04-18)
Trees to offset the carbon footprint?
How effective are new trees in offsetting the carbon footprint? A new study suggests that the location of the new trees is an important factor when considering such carbon offset projects. Planting and preserving forests in the tropics is more likely to slow down global warming. view more (2007-04-10)
Media invitation - Environmental change in Antarctic lakes and seas: the chances for survival or extinction? BA Festival of Science, Univ of Leicester
The effects of the warming of the Earth`s climate on Antarctic lakes and seas is a matter of life or death for many plants and animals at the frozen continent. Professor Lloyd Peck, biologist with British Antarctic Survey (BAS) discusses the prospects for survival or extinction of Antarctic marine and lake life today (9 Sept) at a special seminar... view more...

Europeans Will Adjust To Global Warming But Will Still Die Of Cold
(Heat related mortality in warm and cold regions of Europe: observational study) BMJ Volume 321, pp 670 - 673 (Editorial : Saving lives in extreme weather in summer : pp 650 ? 651) Heat related deaths start at higher temperatures in hot regions of Europe compared to cold regions, suggesting that people have adjusted successfully to differences in... view more...

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)
Changing jet streams may alter paths of storms and hurricanes
The Earth's jet streams, the high-altitude bands of fast winds that strongly influence the paths of storms and other weather systems, are shifting-possibly in response to global warming. view more (2008-04-17)
Global warming could lead to a greener Greenland (embargoed until 18.00 BST)
Research published in Nature suggests that enough greenhouse gases could be in the atmosphere as early as 2050 to melt the massive ice-sheet that covers Greenland. As a result, sea levels could rise by around seven metres over the next 1,000 years. Along with colleagues in Belgium and Germany, Dr Jonathan Gregory, of the Centre for Global... view more...

Record warm summers cause extreme ice melt in Greenland
An international team of scientists, led by Dr Edward Hanna at the University of Sheffield, has demonstrated that recent warm summers have caused the most extreme Greenland ice melting in 50 years. view more (2008-01-16)
Researchers find animal with ability to survive climate change
Queen's researchers have found that the main source of food for many fish - including cod - in the North Atlantic appears to adapt in order to survive climate change. view more (2008-09-24)
Global warming capable of sparking mass species extinctions
The Earth could see massive waves of species extinctions around the world if global warming continues unabated, according to a new study published in the scientific journal Conservation Biology. view more (2006-04-12)
Study predicts effect of global warming on spring flowers
An international study involving Monash University mathematician Dr Malcolm Clark has been used to demonstrate the impact of global warming and to predict the effect further warming will have on plant life. view more (2009-09-17)
First ever worldwide census analysis of caribou/reindeer numbers reveals dramatic decline
Caribou and reindeer numbers worldwide have plunged almost 60% in the last three decades. view more (2009-06-12)
Insects and disease - international symposium and national meeting
The Royal Entomological Society, in association with the Entomological Society of the Netherlands and the International Union of Forest Research Organisations, is holding its bi-annual symposium at the University of Aberdeen on 10-12 September 2001. The theme of "Insects and disease" will bring together hundreds of entomologists from... view more... (2001-08-13)
Protection zones in the wrong place to prevent coral reef collapse
Conservation zones are in the wrong place to protect vulnerable coral reefs from the effects of global warming, an international team of scientists warned today. view more (2008-08-28)
Global warming doubles rate of ocean rise
Global ocean levels are rising twice as fast today as they were 150 years ago, and human-induced warming appears to be the culprit. view more (2005-11-28)
Global changes alter plant growth schedule
Any gardener knows that different plant species mature at different times. Scientists studying natural plant communities know this phenomenon allows species to co-exist by reducing overlap so there is less competition for limited resources. view more (2006-09-05)
New mathematical method allows scientists to better predict the effects of global warming
Scientists may soon have a better idea of the potential effects of global warming thanks to the work of Tony O’Hagan, Professor of Statistics at the University of Sheffield. Scientists already know that global warming will have consequences for the earth but are unsure how mild or severe these effects may be, due to the inaccuracies in... view more... (2002-09-12)
Ancient global warming episode holds clues to future climate, UH Manoa researcher says
When scientists take Earth's temperature, they usually use thermometers. But when scientists want to figure out Earth's temperature in the past, they have to rely on other tools. view more (2009-07-17)
Cyclones spurt water into the stratosphere, feeding global warming
Scientists at Harvard University have found that tropical cyclones readily inject ice far into the stratosphere, possibly feeding global warming. view more (2009-04-21)
Protection zones in the wrong place to prevent coral reef collapse
Conservation zones are in the wrong place to protect vulnerable coral reefs from the effects of global warming, an international team of scientists warned today. view more (2008-08-27)
