Researchers Report Climate Clues that can be Found by Analyzing Magnetofossils

Fifty-six million years ago, as the Earth's climate warmed by five to eight degrees C, new land mammals evolved, tropical forests expanded, giant insects and reptiles appeared and the chemistry of the ocean changed.

Satellite Measurements of Troposphere Temperature may have Underestimated Global Warming

A new study carried out by climate scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and their collaborators demonstrates that satellite measurements of the temperature of the troposphere (the lowest region of the atmosphere) might have undervalued global warming in the past four decades.

Indigenous Amazonia Populations may have Declined due to Climate Change Before Great Dying

A new study has proposed that the effects of climate change experienced in the Amazon rainforest before the arrival of European settlers after 1492 might have implied that populations of indigenous people were already declining before the “Great Dying.”

Natural Climate Conditions were Responsible for Recent Drought in the Pantanal

The severe drought experienced by the Pantanal between 2019 and 2020 is believed to be the worst in the last five decades. It was triggered by natural climate conditions that were analogous to those that caused the 2014–2016 critical water crisis in São Paulo state.

Climate Change can Make Railway Infrastructure Vulnerable to Greater Damages

Just half a degree Celsius less warming would save economic losses of Chinese railway infrastructure by approximately $0.63 billion per year, according to a new paper published by a collaborative research team based in Beijing Normal University and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.
