Recent Climate Change Has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-Latitude Peatlands
This article analyzes historical changes to high-latitude peatlands, which store one third of the global soil carbon.Read More →
Earlier onset of North Atlantic hurricane season with warming oceans
This study shows a significant trend towards earlier onset of tropical cyclone activity in the North Atlantic basin associated with warming oceans. Read More →
Antarctic Peninsula warming triggers enhanced basal melt rates throughout West Antarctica
This study finds that increased glacial runoff at the Antarctic Peninsula, one of the first signatures of a warming climate in Antarctica, emerges as a key trigger for increased ice shelf melt rates in the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas.Read More →
Climate change is increasing the risk of a California megaflood
This peer-reviewed study uses climate modeling to find that climate change has already doubled the likelihood of an event capable of producing catastrophic flooding in California. Read More →
Methane remote sensing and emission quantification of offshore shallow water oil and gas platforms in the Gulf of Mexico
This study shows how remote sensing with imaging spectrometers and glint targeting can be used to efficiently observe offshore infrastructure, quantify methane emissions, and attribute those emissions to specific infrastructure types.Read More →
Over half of known human pathogenic diseases can be aggravated by climate change
This study is a systematic search for empirical examples about the impacts of ten climatic hazards sensitive to greenhouse gas emissions on each known human pathogenic disease.Read More →
Unprecedented Heatwave in Western North America during Late June of 2021: Roles of Atmospheric Circulation and Global Warming
This study concludes that models show that greenhouse gases are the main reason for the long-term increase of average daily maximum temperature in western North America in the past and future.Read More →
National attribution of historical climate damages
This study combines historical data with climate models in an integrated framework to quantify each nation’s culpability for historical temperature-driven income changes in every other country.Read More →
