The Northwest Atlantic Shelf, from the coasts of North Carolina to Newfoundland, has warmed faster than almost any other part of the ocean. A new study forecasts a temporary warming pause, but long-term warming is projected to continue.
Extreme weather events have increased since the pre-industrial period, but the trend has regional variations. New research shows that the spatial structure will likely change under a high greenhouse gas emissions scenario.
Besides greenhouse gasses, U.S. oil and natural gas production emits ethane. A new study indicates that ethane emission levels are about three times higher than the EPA’s estimates.
Raindrops that are cooler than the ground they land on have a cooling effect, one often omitted from weather models. A new study finds that this effect in India can reduce overall rainfall.
The Ship Of Opportunity Program is an international effort that supports the implementation of a network of cargo vessels, cruise ships, and research vessels to deploy scientific instruments that collect oceanographic observations.
A new study finds that combining data from both the ocean and atmosphere can lead to more accurate forecasts, even in complex environments like the Red Sea.
New resources can help researchers, academics, and federal and state agencies working in rural Alaska understand the current landscape and complexities of Tribal communities.
The International Tree-Ring Data Bank is a vital scientific resource containing over 6,000 tree ring chronologies used to study long-term climate patterns and environmental changes.
A new study finds wildfire smoke significantly raised fine particulate matter and ozone levels, leading to numerous days when air pollution exceeded health standards.
New international shipping regulations have drastically cut sulfur emissions from ships. While crucial for improving air quality and public health, reducing ship tracks also reduces their cooling effects.
