Ocean Salinity News Today

NASA has been tracking the El Niño event, which began in 2023 and had its biggest effects through the end of 2023 and into the early months of 2024.

New findings have revealed a coastal realm highly sensitive to changes in runoff and rainfall on land. After helping stoke record heat in 2023 and drenching major swaths of the United States this winter, the current El Niño is losing steam this spring. Scientists have observed another way that th

"The Global Tipping Points Report," the most comprehensive assessment of tipping points, says that humanity is on a disastrous trajectory.

Paris (ESA) Oct 09, 2023 - Thanks to their ability to absorb and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, forests have long been recognised as a key tool in the fight against climate change - but not all forests are equal. N

<p>Using a new analysis method for satellite images, an international research team, coordinated by the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) and INRAE, mapped for the first time annual changes in global forest biomass between 2010 and 2019. Researchers discovered that boreal and temperate forests have become the main global carbon sinks. Tropical forests, which are older and degraded by deforestation, fire and drought, are nearly carbon neutral. The findings, publ...
