German scientist warns of ocean acidification

A team of researchers reported that the impact of climate change is apparent in nearly all aspects of climate variability using model simulations over 250 years.

There is growing public awareness that climate change will impact society not only through changes in mean temperatures and precipitation over the 21st century, but also in the occurrence of more pronounced extreme events, and more generally in natural variability in the Earth system.

A scientific exploration of projected future changes in climate and ecosystem variability is described in a new study published in the journal Earth S....

Two physicists object to a Scientific American essay calling for an end to one climate report. A science historian counters that the report has done its job

Scientists are worried by how fast the climate crisis has amplified extreme weather By: CNN Sebastien Bozon/AFP/Getty Images (CNN) -- Until recently, climate change had been talked about as a future threat. Its frontlines were portrayed as remote places like the Arctic, where polar bears are running out of sea ice to hunt from. Sea level rise and extreme drought was a problem...

Slow Atlantic Ocean may cause climate chaos The system of currents - the conveyor belt - is at its most sluggish in 1,000 years may lead to extreme weather, warn scientists 25 February 2021 • 8:21pm Some evidence suggests there could be a ‘tipping point’ after 2100 which could cause intense winter storms in Europe Credit: Cover Images The Atlantic current system which maintains mild weather in Europe is at its weakest in over a millennium, most likely because of climate change, scientists...
