Atlantic Ocean Current May Collapse Due to Climate Change

Unlike what one imagines about the effect of climate change in Europe, a colder future may be coming in a few days. In recent research, scientists from the University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute and Department of Mathematical Sciences forecast that the system of ocean currents that currently distribute heat and cold between the North Atlantic region and tropics will entirely stop if people keep emitting the same levels of greenhouse gases as they do right now.

Climate Change Has Dried Out the Colorado River Basin, Study Finds

From 2000 to 2021, climate change caused the loss of more than 40 trillion liters (10 trillion gallons) of water in the Colorado River Basin - about equal to the entire storage capacity of Lake Mead - according to a new study that modeled humans' impact on hydrology in the region.

Methane Emissions From Biological Sources May be Higher Than Estimated

Recent research by Maarten van Herpen et al., reveals a new mechanism whereby blowing mineral dust mixes with sea-spray forms Mineral Dust-Sea Spray Aerosol (MDSA). The research was funded in part by the NGO Spark Climate Solutions.
