Plants Face Challenges in Adapting to Climate Change in Human-Dominated Landscapes

Researchers at UC Santa Cruz are contributing new insights into the challenges plants face in adapting to climate change. Prior research has long anticipated that plants might be able to respond to increasing temperatures by changing their phenology-;or the timing of seasonal life processes-;at a rate that matches the rate of climate change.

Retreating Glaciers Could Produce Many Kilometers of New Pacific Salmon Habitat by 2100

Retreating glaciers in the Pacific mountains of western North America could produce around 6,150 kilometers of new Pacific salmon habitat by the year 2100, according to a new study.

Agronomic Practices can Increase the Carbon Stored in Soils to Help Combat Climate Change

Increasing adoption of agricultural practices such as cover cropping, grazing management and agroforestry can increase the amount of carbon stored in soils to help combat climate change, according to a new report by researchers from Rutgers University-New Brunswick and the University of Maine.

New Data Shows Traffic Pollution Level Rose by Nearly a Third in Glasgow During COP26

New data released today by Aeternum, a provider of low cost, unplugged sensors designed to accurately monitor air quality, finds that levels of the air pollutant nitrogen dioxide increased by nearly a third within a mile of COP26 in Glasgow last month.

Study Finds Increasing Weather Persistence in European Summer

In our study, we show that persistent weather conditions have an increasing similarity in summer over the North Atlantic, Europe and Siberia, favoring more pronounced extreme weather events.

UNESCO-IPCC-ICOMOS Meeting Focuses on Strengthening Synergies Between Climate Science and Culture

Strengthening synergies between culture and climate science in the common fight against climate change will be at the centre of the first ever meeting organised jointly by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) from 6 to 10 December 2021.

Acoustically Distinct Pressurized Underwater Bubbles Help Estimate Climate-Induced Glacial Melting

As the world's temperatures rise, tidewater glaciers are receding and melting, releasing air trapped in the ice. Scientists can listen to the release of the air and potentially use the sounds to help them gauge the impact of climate change on the ice floes.

Social Acceptability of Carbon Taxes Increases by Spending Revenues on Climate Projects

The creation of a carbon tax would be more widely accepted by the public if the revenue raised were used to finance climate projects. This is the conclusion of a study carried out by researchers at the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology of the Universitat Autnomade Barcelona (ICTA-UAB), which analyses the fact that how governments spend revenues influences the acceptance and perception of the tax.
