A 1,000-year temperature record shows unprecedented warming in the Pacific Northwest, and new modeling predicts the likelihood of future heat waves in the decades to come.
Researchers think they may know what Europa's red veins are made of, and another group of scientists has found evidence that shows the 2021 "heat dome" temperatures hadn't occurred for at least 1,000 years. Learn more about these recent breakthroughs and others in the region from Jes Burns, creator of "All Science. No Fiction."
Tree ring data from the Pacific Northwest reveal that the region’s average summer temperature in 2021 was the highest since at least the year 950.
The extremity of the deadly heat wave is visible inside the region's trees, new research shows.
A new study of tree rings from the region shows that the event was almost certainly the worst in at least the past millennium. The new study shows that the last 40 years, driven by human-influenced warming, has been the hottest and that 2021 was the hottest summer
