How well are the most important climate models able to predict the weather conditions for the coming year or even the next decade? The Potsdam scientists Dr….
At the American Geophysical Union meeting this week, an Ohio State University researcher presented images from NASA’s Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared…
New observations published by oceanographers from the University of Gothenburg and the US may improve our ability to predict future changes in ice sheet mass….
The model allows geologists to better understand how sedimentary rocks are related to one another in time and space and predict what types of rocks are located…
The outbursts, known as terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs), last only a few thousandths of a second, but their gamma rays rank among the highest-energy light…
The National Geographic Society today announced the next phase of its Genographic Project — the multiyear global research initiative that uses DNA to map the…
But research in the last 20 years has shown that the Kamchatka Peninsula and Kuril Islands are a seismic and volcanic hotbed, with a potential to trigger…
Doug Morton of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., presented the new analysis of future U.S. fire activity. The analysis was based on current…
But where along these extended subduction areas are great earthquakes most likely to happen? Scientists have now found that regions where ‘scars’ on the…
Berkeley Lab researchers devise a new method to estimate state’s greenhouse gas emissionsUsing a new method for estimating greenhouse gases that combines…
Since Dec. 2, Bopha's maximum sustained winds have fluctuated up and down from its previous high of 155 mph and today, Dec. 3, the storm has reached its…
The thick atmosphere of Venus contains over a million times as much sulphur dioxide as Earth’s, where almost all of the pungent, toxic gas is generated by…
Many researchers are turning to the past because it holds clues to how nature reacted to climate change before the anthropogenic impact. The divergent results…
Using data collected by NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft, a team from UCLA crafted the first accurate thermal model of the solar system's innermost planet,…
For over 150 years, geologists have debated how and when one of the most dramatic features on our planet—the Grand Canyon—was formed. New data unearthed by…
The team looked at geographical patterns of atmospheric temperature change over the period of satellite observations. The team's goal of the study was to…
