Department:May 19, 2020A zero-emissions path would provide significant air quality benefits for the city and surrounding counties.
Department:May 14, 2020Like the months before it, April 2020 was also the second warmest on record for the globe, which means 2020 is almost certain to be among the four warmest years on record.
Department:May 12, 2020Climate models project dangerous combinations of heat and humidity by the end of the 21st century. New research says these extremes are already happening.
Department:April 23, 2020Katherine Allen studies oceans and climate, past and present. Her knowledge of plankton and her scuba diving skills have allowed her to explore fascinating and beautiful locations from New Zealand to Maine.
Department:April 15, 2020The most comprehensive database ever assembled of paleoclimate proxies that tell scientists about temperatures since the last ice age ended around 12,000 years ago has been released to the public.
Department:April 14, 2020Global temperatures in March 2020 were the second warmest on record, helping to start spring off just as abnormally warm as winter ended.
Department:April 8, 2020In 2015, NOAA's Climate Program Office (CPO) invited grant proposals from sea ice and climate scientists looking to better understand and predict Arctic sea ice behavior, on timescales ranging from days to decades. This is our second story on some of the resulting research.
Department:March 26, 2020How did the 2019-20 Winter Outlook do? Pretty darn good if you ask us! Learn just how good in our yearly verification post.
Department:March 24, 2020Arctic sea ice extent reached its apparent annual maximum on March 5, 2020. It was the 11th-lowest maximum in the 42-year satellite record. Though nowhere near a record low, it was well below the 1981–2010 average.
Department:March 16, 2020Cool conditions in Alaska and northern Canada related to a strong polar vortex were not enough to outweigh the extreme warmth across Europe and Asia in February 2020. Both the Northern Hemisphere and the globe as a whole had their second-warmest February on record.
