A new study finds improvements in how models simulate surface wind responses to sea surface temperature changes are key to enhancing prediction skill.

New projects will improve understanding of atmospheric methane budgets to inform successful policies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, address major sources of uncertainty in methane measurements and modeling, and reduce community-level methane emissions.

The Climate Smart Communities Initiative (CSCI) has announced its first round of awards, with more than $1 million, including funding and technical support to help communities accelerate climate resilience efforts.

July global surface temperatures were the warmest on record for the month and marked the 14th consecutive month of record-high global temperatures.

Record precipitation, tornadoes, hurricanes, and wildfires impacted the U.S.; four new billion-dollar weather and climate disasters were confirmed in July.

An outburst flood from the Mendenhall Glacier sent a record amount of water toward Juneau, Alaska, for the second year in a row.

The dog days of summer have slowed down La Niña's arrival, but odds are still high for an event by fall.

Nitrogen fertilizer usage has helped feed nearly half the global population. But nitrogen emissions to the atmosphere have contributed to acid rain, air pollution, stratospheric ozone depletion, and the radiative forcing underlying climate change.

A 12-year collaboration between NOAA and the Indian Ministry of Earth Sciences paves the way for advances in severe weather modeling and may lead to improved tropical cyclone forecasts.

One process driving the North Pacific's trajectory into uncharted waters is rising greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Those rising concentrations are driving more heat into the ocean's surface layer.
