Middle-aged people in equatorial regions have lived through the most perceptible warming in their lifetimes. But many others may experience unrecognisable changes in their local climate later in life.
Our ability to cool the planet takes humanity into uncharted territory. In a new paper published today, researchers discuss the big unknowns in a post net-zero world.
New research suggests ancient climate change shaped the fate of western civilisation.
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria help tropical phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide, creating a biological pump in the oceans.
No records of the size of Native American populations before 1492 and the arrival of Europeans survive. A new study has found answers.
The last ice age locked atmospheric carbon dioxide into oceans, which has major implications for how the oceans and carbon dioxide may be linked in the future.
A volcanic eruption in 1815 triggered a year without a summer – prompting a flowering of nature writing that is all too relevant today.
Volcanic eruptions since 2000 have had a cooling effect on the earth’s climate. Benjamin Santer and colleagues found that…
A volcano in Indonesia may be the location of a massive “mystery eruption” that has perplexed volcanologists for decades, according to a new study. The eruption occurred in 1257, and it could also be one…
A “cold snap” 116 million years ago triggered similar problems for marine life as more recent crises caused by global warming…
