The surge of erosion in recent years, averaging more than double historical rates, is threatening coastal towns and destroying Alaskan cultural relics.Average…
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…
In the past, the Greenland ice sheet has grown when its surroundings cooled, shrunk when its surroundings warmed and even disappeared completely when the…
The warming of the world ocean is consistent with the amount of warming expected as a result of the observed increase in greenhouse gases in earth's…
These findings are helping scientists understand the full spectrum of motions occurring on the fault and may yield new insights into the events that lead to…
Permafrost is ground that is frozen year round at least two years in a row. North of the Arctic Circle permafrost is common due to the cold climate.For several…
It is premature to conclude that human activity–particularly greenhouse warming–has had a detectable impact on Atlantic hurricanes, and Model simulations…
In the nearly 50 years of meteorological satellite observations, the data have increasingly been used to complement research satellite data for purposes of…
The Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE) is the first geologic study of the underwater subduction zone faults that give rise to the massive…
Across the vast landscape of the Earth, where are scientists likely to find the clearest signals of climate change so that they can predict future impact?…
“In order to train masters and doctoral students there has to be a research effort,” said Andrew Nyblade, professor of geosciences, Penn State and co-director…
That is the conclusion reached by two Danish researchers from the University of Copenhagen, Professor Hans Thybo and PhD Christoffer Nielsen, after many…
Iron dust, the rarest nutrient for most marine life, can be washed down by rivers or blown out to sea or–a surprising new study finds–float up from the sea…
Research professor Vincent F. Chevrier and graduate student Travis S. Altheide of the Arkansas Center for Space and Planetary Sciences report their findings in…
It is well known that the hydrothermal vents lining the mid-ocean ridges are a major source of iron to the ocean. Vent fluids contain about one million times…
From an Earth history perspective, we are living in cold times. The greatest climate challenge mankind has faced has been surviving ice ages that have…
