Atmospheric dust plays a dual role in Earth's climate: it reflects some sunlight back into space while also absorbing and retaining the planet's heat like an insulating blanket. But while dust likely ...

Airborne desert dust is doing more than just dirtying windshields, according to new work from UCLA researchers. Their study ...

Scientific models have predicted that climate change will drive oceans in the Northern Hemisphere to warm faster than oceans ...

For decades, scientists have worked to improve predictions of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), a climate powerhouse that ...

The fight against climate change is ongoing, and while we're still a long way from finding an actually sustainable solution, researchers at Yale say that imperfect climate models may actually be far ...

Climate models provide reliable projections of many aspects of a warming planet over the next century and beyond due to human-caused climate change. Climate models are sets of mathematical equations ...

JBA Risk Management, a specialist company focused on flood hazard modelling and climate risk analytics, has introduced a new ...

Models, by definition, are approximations: useful, informative, and inevitably incomplete, because they are the only way to simplify a world too complex to grasp all at once. A new study on nitrous ...

The verdict? The CAC predicts 12 named storms, five hurricanes and two major hurricanes (Category 3 or higher).

Climate and ecological models suggest that warming temperatures, habitat changes, and cattle density could allow common vampire bats, carriers of bovine paralytic rabies, to expand into southern Texas ...
