Volcanic Eruptions in One Hemisphere Linked to Floods in the Opposite One - Eos

The research team used previous simulations of Earth’s climate system to obtain precipitation and temperature data for 5 years after three highly explosive eruptions: Guatemala’s Santa María in 1902, Indonesia’s Mount Agung in 1963, and the Philippines’ Mount Pinatubo in 1991.

In the Arctic, Consequences of Heat Waves Linger - Eos

The analysis indicated that the high heat caused soil temperature to remain roughly 1.2°C, or about 150%, warmer in 2021 than it would have been without the heat wave, even though air temperatures had returned to normal.

Kesä 2024 oli Lapissa lämpimin 2 000 vuoteen - Ilmatieteen laitos

Epäsuorat lämpötilahavainnot puiden vuosilustoista kertovat viime kesän olleen lämpimin Lapissa nykyisen ajanlaskumme aikana. Lapin kesäilmasto on siirtymässä historiallisen, luontaisen vaihteluvälinsä ulkopuolelle.

What will climate feel like in 60 years?

To find places that have a climate today most similar to the expected future climate in your city, the web app uses some fancy number crunching for thousands of cities, towns, and suburbs across the globe to answer the question: If I wanted to experience what my city’s climate is expected to be like in the future, where should I go? We suspect the answer will surprise you.

Carbon Offsets Don’t Work. Here’s Why

Individuals, companies and governments “offset” carbon emissions by paying to plant trees or fund solar panels in one place, so they can emit them elsewhere. Carbon credits are exchanged in the open market with the idea that carbon prices will go up – forcing companies to emit less. Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant looks at why carbon offsets may not solve the climate crisis.

Opinion | I’m a Climate Scientist. I’m Not Screaming Into the Void Anymore.

Some politicians now actually campaign on climate change, instead of ignoring or lying about it. Congress passed federal climate legislation — something I’d long regarded as impossible — in 2022 as we turned in the first draft. And while the report stresses the urgency of limiting warming to prevent terrible risks, it has a new message, too: We can do this.

We’ve pumped so much groundwater that we’ve nudged the Earth’s spin, says new study

By pumping water out of the ground and moving it elsewhere, humans have shifted such a large mass of water that the Earth tilted nearly 80 centimeters (31.5 inches) east between 1993 and 2010 alone, according to a new study published in Geophysical Research Letters.

Hidden carbon: Fungi and their ‘necromass’ absorb one-third of the carbon emitted by burning fossil fuels every year

[New] research shows [mycorrhizal fungi] may quietly be playing a bigger role in storing carbon than we thought. [Researchers] estimate the world's plants are transferring a staggering 3.58 billion tonnes of carbon per year to this underground network.
