Advanced computer models can quantify the impacts of climate change and other environmental challenges, providing deep ...

Considered natural allies against climate change due to their absorption of carbon dioxide, plants may however offer more ...

Overestimated nitrogen availability has led climate models to exaggerate how much plant growth can offset rising CO2 levels. Rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are a major driver of ...

Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of ...

Climate risks are global, but prediction systems remain nationally siloed. The NCAR breakup shows why weather and climate ...

The researchers applied statistical tools designed to identify structural changes in time series data over time, commonly called changepoint models, to four sets of global mean surface temperature ...

After a record fall, when nearly the entire United States experienced drought—unprecedented in US Drought Monitor history—water managers and planners nationwide are nervously hoping for a wet winter, ...

Climate models have been the basis for concern about climate change for more than 35 years. The US government, the United Nations, and organizations across the world have used model projections to ...

Climate change is already shaping our well-being. It affects mental health, spreads infectious diseases, disrupts work, damages food supplies and forces families to leave their homes because of ...
