Scientists at NOAA’s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory are tapping into machine learning to better understand the impacts of climate change on our oceans and atmosphere.
A heat-tolerant algae found in some tropical Pacific corals can make reefs more resilient to heatwave events, according to an exciting new discovery reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
When readily available technologies such as the cell phone in your pocket can serve as a data collection tool, there’s never been a better time for the public to participate in environmental monitoring.
Atmospheric scientists led by NOAA have found that wildfires strong enough to spawn their own thunderstorms have a lasting effect on the stratosphere—and climate.
A new study examines water use in three large U.S. water systems: Austin Water, the Southern Nevada Water Authority, and Tampa Bay Water. Changes during drought, sustained engagement, collaboration, and education can lead to long-lasting changes in values around water, the study finds.
Ice coverage has reached a record low in the Great Lakes for this time of year. As of February 13, 2023, only 7 percent of these five freshwater lakes was covered in ice, significantly below the 35-40 percent ice cover expected.
When white lesions began appearing at the famously intact Flower Garden Banks coral reef system, scientists knew a rapid, multi-agency, collaborative response was vital to learn from this coral disease outbreak.
NOAA PMEL oceanographers and colleagues are leading an effort to establish first-of-their-kind standards for calculating and reporting trends in ocean acidification observations
Is climate change outpacing drought assessment? February 28-March 1, the National Integrated Drought Information System and the U.S. Department of Agriculture will host a workshop to address this question. A pre-workshop virtual webinar, recorded February 10, is already available online.
