Half of US Coastal Communities Underestimate Sea Level Risks: Most Regional Assessments Omit High-End Scenarios, Leading to Costly and Potentially Dangerous Underestimates

Electric Discharge From Plants May Be Changing Air Quality in Ways We Didn't Expect

Climate change doubled the risk for Copenhagen’s historic 2011 cloudburst. In some places, two months worth of precipitation fell in a few hours

The stratosphere has carried more water vapor since 2000, with more than half of the increase likely related to global warming, according to new research

Coal is the main culprit behind the release of a dangerous pollutant in Europe

The Climate and Ozone Impacts of Black Carbon Emissions From Global Rocket Launches

Climate change is expected to result in more frequent & intense heat waves in South Asia, affecting up to half a billion people every year

Linking Faulting, Topography, and Sediment Production During Continental Rifting

Global warming will make extreme storms not only stronger, but also larger.

Key shipping lanes in the Arctic Ocean will remain open for more of the year as global temperatures rise and sea ice continues to melt.Arctic sea ice is thinning so fast that open-water vessels could ply northern shipping routes within decades.

Evidence for a Global Slowdown in Seafloor Spreading over the past 19 million years

Global cities are sinking — and humans are partly to blame

Tsunamis’ magnetic fields are detectable before sea level change, which can improve current tsunami risk models.

New research suggests that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet may already have been sufficiently destabilized to trigger a long-term sea-level contribution of up to 4 m…
