A new story from NOAA Fisheries highlights enhanced forecasting that can anticipate changing ocean conditions up to a year in advance.
Summary: The Tibetan Plateau is the largest area of elevated topography on Earth. A new study investigates the role of solar radiation-topography interaction in modulating Earth’s climate.
A new study uses computer modeling to explore how injecting reflective particles into the atmosphere might slow Antarctic ice melt. The study finds that location matters; a single injection in the Northern Hemisphere could increase Antarctic melt.
From record-high summer heat to the greening of the Arctic, this collection of images highlights several key "vital signs" of the Arctic.
While carbon dioxide emissions of declining in some regions, they continue to rise overall. A new report indicates global action to reduce fossil fuel consumption is not happening fast enough to prevent dangerous impacts from climate change.
A new study finds that sea level variations along the U.S. East Coast are skillfully predictable 3 to 10 years in advance over the North Atlantic regions. The most predictable sea level component is characterized by a basin-wide upward trend.
November 30 marks the official end of the Atlantic hurricane season. NOAA scientists and forecasters pushed boundaries throughout the 2023 season to conduct crucial research to better protect those most affected.
In a changing climate, the intensity, duration, and frequency of droughts may change. A new report offers ideas for action and research that federal, tribal, state, local agencies and academic institutions can advance.
Every five years, the U.S. Global Change Research Program releases a new National Climate Assessment. The newest (fifth) assessment offers information on how drought will change as the climate changes, how to adapt, and how future droughts might impact your region and livelihood.
On Tuesday, November 28, the White House released a coordinated national strategy, “The National Strategy to Advance an Integrated U.S. Greenhouse Gas Measurement, Monitoring and Information Service,” to measure, monitor, and share greenhouse gas information.
