Over the past 60 years, scientists have largely succeeded in building a computer model of Earth to see what the future holds. One of the most ambitious projects humankind has ever undertaken has now ...

Models, by definition, are approximations: useful, informative, and inevitably incomplete, because they are the only way to simplify a world too complex to grasp all at once. A new study on nitrous ...

As we celebrate Earth Month, we are kicking off a series of retrospectives on National Academies’ reports and activities related to climate science. The National Academies took on the complex ...

We've been watching temperatures climb, extreme weather events intensify, and ice sheets shrink. Every weather forecast and climate projection relies on incredibly complex computer simulations that ...

WITH there being more global demand for stronger environmental safeguards, Guyana stands out given its ability to leverage its Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) to build market trust, standardise ...

In many ways, Tony Fadell built the digital world we live in. At the turn of the millennium, his efforts to build a pocket-sized, hard-disk-based device that could hold 1,000 songs in MP3 format ...

Tiny marine plankton that build calcium carbonate shells play an outsized role in regulating Earth’s climate, quietly pulling carbon from the atmosphere and helping lock it away in the deep ocean. New ...

People often think of a heatwave as a temporary event, a brutal week of sun that eventually breaks with a cool breeze. But as the climate changes globally, in parts of Africa, that level of heat is ...

We studied how nature already regulates carbon and asked how that process could be amplified, monitored, and deployed where pollution is highest. The Minds Behind AlgaetreeTM The Mushroom World Group ...
