Ocean Bacteria Release Massive Amounts of Sulfur Gases that Influence Earth’s Climate

SAR11, the most abundant plankton in the world’s oceans, are pumping out massive amounts of two sulfur gases that play important roles in the Earth’s atmosphere, researchers announced today in the journal Nature Microbiology.

World's Poorest Countries Expected to Experience Daily Heat Extremes Sooner than Wealthier Nations

Many of the world’s poorest countries are expected to experience daily heat extremes due to climate change sooner than wealthier nations – according to research from an international team including UEA.

New Study Provides Key Insights into Sources of Methane

Researchers from the University of Cincinnati recently studied the sources of methane at three sites across the nation in order to better understand this greenhouse gas, which is much more potent at trapping heat in the atmosphere than is carbon dioxide.

Emissions from Farms Outweigh Other Human Sources of Fine-Particulate Air Pollution

Emissions from farms outweigh all other human sources of fine-particulate air pollution in much of the United States, Europe, Russia and China, according to new research. The culprit: fumes from nitrogen-rich fertilizers and animal waste combine in the air with combustion emissions to form solid particles, which constitute a major source of disease and death, according to the new study.

New Technique Uses Seismic Vibrations to Track Seasonal Changes in Greenland’s Ice Sheet

A novel method has been developed by researchers from Princeton University, MIT, and elsewhere that uses seismic vibrations created by ocean waves to track seasonal changes occurring in Greenland’s ice. The study could enable scientists to identify the ice sheet regions that are the most sensitive to melting.

Researchers Discover Fossil Primate Species Stressed by Prehistoric Climate Change

Scientists from the University of Kansas have discovered a "mother lode" of six new fossil primate species in parts of southern China. Approximately 34 million years ago, these primate species eked out an existance soon after the Eocene-Oligocene transition.

Collective Framing of Climate Change Causes More Effective than Individual, UC San Diego Study Suggests

What can you do about climate change? The better question might be: What can we do about climate change? University of California San Diego researchers show in a new study that framing the issue collectively is significantly more effective than emphasis on personal responsibility.

Tropical Cyclones Play Major Role in Increased Carbon Uptake by Southeast U.S. Forests

For people who reside in the southeastern United States, hurricanes continue to be a major source of worry, but according to a new study, residents of this region may now have a major upside on how to offset global warming. Earlier, Duke environmental engineer Ana Barros performed a study, which showed that a steady landfall of tropical cyclones is important for the region’s water supply and this can ultimately help in reducing droughts.
