A seemingly small planetary neighbor may play a larger role in Earth’s climate than previously thought. Mars is only about ...
New research shows that early land plants started influencing Earth’s climate hundreds of millions of years earlier than ...
Scientists have long debated what causes glacial/interglacial cycles, which have occurred most recently at intervals of about 100,000 years. A new study reported in the March 24 issue of Nature finds ...
A strip of cool water stretches west from South America along the equator, helping set the pace for some of the planet’s most important weather swings. That Pacific “cold tongue” helps steer the El ...
Earth’s climate is influenced by far more than weather patterns and greenhouse gases. Scientists have discovered that long-term orbital shifts known as Milankovitch cycles slowly change the planet’s ...
How does climate change influence the planet’s nitrogen cycle? This is what a recent study published in Nitrogen Cycling hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated climate change’s impact ...
The Earth is known for its constant evolution, but it was recently discovered by researchers that there is a trigger that leads to the planet's biodiversity seeing a massive boost, and it is through a ...
Earth is closer to the sun at some times of year than at others, with the time of closest approach shifting over a period of 22,000 years. This affects Earth's climate, including ice ages, but a team ...
BOULDER–Challenging conventional wisdom, new research finds that the number of sunspots provides an incomplete measure of changes in the Sun’s impact on Earth over the course of the 11-year solar ...
