On June 1, a total of 36 scientists will board the German research vessel “Sonne” for expedition SO263 at the port of Suva, the capital city of the Fiji…
Day-in, day-out, we release nearly 100 million tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. One possible measure against steadily increasing greenhouse…
The new study, published this month in the journal The Leading Edge, provides a color-coded map of the 75,000-square mile region that identifies those…
On the basis of a unique global comparison of data from core samples extracted from the ocean floor and the polar ice sheets, AWI researchers have now…
Ozone is a substance that forms in the stratosphere – the region of the atmosphere between about 10 and 50 km altitude, above the troposphere that we live in….
Mars developed in as little as two to four million years after the birth of the solar system, far more quickly than Earth, according to results of a new study…
