Researchers have uncovered that both ocean currents and atmospheric changes contribute equally to a cold patch in the North ...

On July 9, 2025, scientists at the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) reported that the Earth ...

Scientists uncover signs that Earth’s resilience to carbon emissions may be unraveling faster than climate models suggest. A ...

Ocean currents play a critical role in regulating the Earth’s climate by redistributing heat across the globe. The new anomaly has shown signs of disrupting these currents, particularly the ...

Antarctica has hidden beneath its great mantle of ice and snow an impressive geological feature among many other things. This ...

Earth’s orbit was nearly circular, so its distance from the Sun stayed about the same throughout the year. In addition, the tilt of Earth’s axis, which gives rise to the seasons, varied less ...

Our climate seems to be more sensitive to greenhouse gas emissions than some researchers had hoped, meaning the world will ...

Air pollution causes cooling by reflecting sunlight or by changing the properties of clouds so they reflect more sunlight.

A new study takes into account one stellar encounter 2.8 million years ago that could help explain climate anomalies throughout Earth’s 4.6 billion-year-long history.
