Precipitation and Not Warming Temperatures May be More to Blame for Bird Population Shifts

Warming temperatures may not impact birds as much as you might think. Instead, precipitation is what might cause problems for species in North America.

Heat Drives Away More People Than Natural Disasters: The Impacts of a Warming World

What's better at driving people away--hurricanes or heat? It turns out that while dramatic storms may temporarily shift a population, heat is the real driving force.

Re-Routing Flights Could Reduce Climate Impact: Contrails Contribute to Global Warming

Scientists have found that if aircraft choose flight paths that reduce the formation of their distinctive condensation trails, they can also reduce their impact on global warming.

Global Warming is Causing Earlier Springs and Later Autumns in Forests

Climate change is causing temperatures to warm all along the east coast and now, these higher temperatures are causing spring to come earlier than ever.

Global Warming May be Partly Caused by Earth's Sun: Solar Activity Raises Temperatures

Global warming continues to be a problem for our planet. Yet scientists have long wondered whether solar activity has anything to do with it.

Record Greenland Ice Sheet Melting Caused by Forest Fires and Climate Change Combo

We all know that the Greenland ice sheet is melting, and could contribute significantly to sea level rise. Now, though, researchers have discovered the underlying causes behind this melting.

The Mystery of Mountain Snow: Fresh Flurries Provide Water for Area Rivers

The mystery of mountain snow has been relatively untouched by scientists. Yet flurries that fall against these continuities are also responsible for the amount of water found in rivers located on or near the land masses.

Environmental Tipping Point Near? Scientists Call for Methane Controls

Methane continues to seep into the atmosphere and exacerbates Earth's greenhouse gas problem. Now, scientists believe that we may not be many years away from an environmental tipping point that could result in runaway warming.

West Antarctic Glaciers in Irreversible Decline: Sea Level Rise Warning

It turns out that there may be no going back when it comes to a section of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Scientists have discovered that this region is in irreversible decline, with nothing stopping the entire glacial basin from disappearing into the sea.

Arctic Study Sheds Light on Odd Tree-Ring Divergence Problem in Tracking Temperatures

Scientists have found that changes in tree-ring density in the Arctic may be evidence of changes in light intensity during the trees' growth. The findings have direct implications for the tree-ring divergence problem.

Greenland Ice Melting Due to Natural Climate Variation: It's Not Just Global Warming

Scientists have found that up to half of recent warming in Greenland and surrounding areas may be due to climate variations that original in the tropical Pacific and might not be connected with the overall warming of the planet.

Global Warming is not Uniform: Scientists Discover Climate Cooling Occurred

Scientists have taken the first detailed look at global land surface warming trends over the last 100 years, shedding a little light on what types of warming we might see in the future.
