Studies announced at the American Astronomical Society suggested that solar activity will enter into a prolonged period of lull. The big question is this: will it lead to lower temperatures, similar to Europe’s Little Ice Age from 1550 to 1850?
NASA has launched an international satellite that carries Aquarius instrument to measure the saltiness of Earth's oceans, a study that helps understand the global water cycle and improve climate forecasts.
Books such as America's Climate Choices, and more than 4,000 others, are now available for free online, as the National Academies Press has made all PDF versions of its books downloadable to anyone at no charge.
As President Barack Obama receives his annual Hurricane Season briefing at the start of Hurricane Season 2011, he'll likely be told that there is a 70 percent chance of between 3 to 6 major hurricanes until the end of November, as above normal activity is expected this year.
Carbon output skyrocketed to its highest recorded level thanks to a five percent increase from 2009 to 2010, the International Energy Agency said.
People base their thoughts on global warming based on the current temperature.
Hundreds and thousands of milk fish washed up dead at Taal Lake in Talisay, Batangas, south of Manila on Sunday, baffling environmentalists and raising concerns over climate change issues.
A spring snow storm will affect the mountain ranges of southeast Wyoming through noon today, according to the National Weather Service.
Perceived earlier as a warning sign for climate change, the floating icebergs in Antarctic Southern Ocean are found to be helping the sea take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, a new study has revealed.
Natural gas extracted from shale formations has a greater greenhouse gas footprint - in the form of methane emissions - than conventional gas, oil and coal over a 20 year period. This calls into question the logic of its use as a climate-friendly alternative to fossil fuels, says a new study.
A research report from The National Center for Atmospheric Research says climate control will damage cities in undeveloped countries.
Many of the world's fast-growing urban areas, especially in developing countries, will likely suffer disproportionately from the impacts of changing climate, a new study said.
The colour of the environment is changing – becoming bluer – apparently due to climate change, says a new study that finds that environment and animal populations are fluctuating more rapidly over time. The change that could have important implications for animals' risk of becoming extinct, ecologists have found.
A sophisticated satellite of the European Space Agency (ESA) has mapped Earth's gravity with unprecedented precision, helping scientists have clearer understanding of the variation in the gravitational force in different parts of the planet and how this may affect crucial events like an earthquake.
Solar greenhouses, which have played a vital role in China's agricultural scene for years, may solve issues such as global energy crisis and climate change, according to a new report.
A recent study undertaken by the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee (UWM) found that workplace climate was the foremost reason behind women choosing to stay away from the engineering profession after college or quitting it after a temporary stint.
NASA said its Glory mission launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California Friday at 5:09:45 a.m. EST failed to reach orbit.
The federal budget and unemployment were tied as top investor concerns, a poll showed, when asked to rate potential factors affecting the investment climate.
NASA has postponed the launch of Glory spacecraft by at least 24 hours, citing technical issues. The next launch attempt has been rescheduled for 5:09 a.m. EST, Thursday, NASA said.
'Climategate' - the unauthorized release in late 2009 of stolen e-mails - undermined many weathercasters’ confidence in the conclusions of climate science, at least temporarily, says a new study.
A new NASA satellite -- Glory -- will collect data on the properties and distribution of aerosols in Earth's atmosphere and on solar irradiance for the long-term record of Earth's climate. The launch of NASA's Glory spacecraft aboard an Orbital Sciences Taurus XL rocket is scheduled for February 23.
The index showing business confidence in Germany continued to improve further in February, posting gains for the ninth consecutive month.
