Ammonia (NH3) is emerging as a promising low-carbon fuel and hydrogen carrier in the quest to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change. However, in...
Over the coming decades, reef-building corals will face ever hotter ocean temperatures, yet it remains unknown if their thermal tolerance can keep up with the...
Lakes play a crucial role in providing freshwater and support many essential ecosystem services. In a new study, we found significant water losses in 53% of...
The loss of glaciers affects sea level, water availability, and natural hazards resulting in socioeconomic impacts for communities around the world, even for...
The earliest ecosystems we know of were built entirely by microscopic lifeforms. Similar ecosystems that exist today help us understand the history of life on...
Insects are a key part of the earth’s life support system, making reports of steep declines a great concern. Our study, one of the largest assessments of...
Flood disasters are expected to increase because of the climate change-related sea level rise. While impacts on regional and local scales may vary, mapping...
The common perception of cacti as heat- and drought-loving desert plants causes climate change to be overlooked as a potential threat to their conservation....
Lessons from past warm periods in the Earth's history reveal that climate and atmospheric changes could lead to more intense seasonal rainfall, disturbing...
Better representation of Northern Hemisphere vegetation may resolve a scientific debate over how global temperatures changed during the past 12,000 years. Our...
Several periods in the Earth's history were warmer than today and provide insight into future impacts of global warming. Climate and atmospheric changes can...
Human-induced (anthropogenic) climate change is exposing forests to a growing risk of drought-induced tree mortality. Replacement patterns following drought...
