A 3,800-year-old tree found buried in clay lost less than 5% of its carbon. This suggests similar burial conditions could preserve wood and prevent carbon release into the atmosphere.
A new U.S.-based system to combine air quality and greenhouse gas pollution sources into a single national research database is now available in the U.S. Greenhouse Gas Center portal.
As Hurricane Helene developed in the Gulf of Mexico, NOAA researchers gathered critical data from the sea and sky to better understand tropical cyclones and support forecasters.
California Current forecasts tend to remain reliable longer when they better represent key atmospheric drivers such sea level pressure and the Pacific meridional mode.
Grants are intended to support island communities with broad efforts to build climate resilience and advance sustainable development goals.
A new paper discusses the 2021 rainfall event, which produced 15-19.8 inches of rain across eastern Texas and southern Louisiana. Many locations received most of the storm total in just 6-12 hours.
Guide to inform community decision-makers, workers, educators and students.
One fun fact is that the Air Resources Laboratory has maintained a network of accurate United States climate data for over 20 years.
Observations from deep ocean robots and historic data from research vessels have heightened confidence that parts of the global deep ocean are warming at a rate of 0.0036–0.0072°F (0.002–0.004°C) each year.
Nitrogen is essential to life on Earth but nitrogen pollution can impact air quality when compounds like ammonia and nitrous oxide become too abundant. A new study examines the effects of farming and wildfires.
