High-sensitivity climate models should not be excluded when projecting future regional climate impacts because the level of warming measured globally is not always the only good indicator of regional ...

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 ...

Scientific models have predicted that climate change will drive oceans in the Northern Hemisphere to warm faster than oceans in the Southern Hemisphere. However, observational data over the last 70 ...

MANAGE-WB and MFMod have been refined to simulate the macroeconomic impacts of climate change, encompassing both transition (shift towards a low-carbon economy) and physical risks (direct climate ...

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 ...

Chinese milk vetch quietly does a lot of heavy lifting in southern China’s rice paddies. Grown as a winter cover crop, it ...

A study describes a new computer algorithm which can be applied to Earth System Models to drastically reduce the time needed to prepare these in order to make accurate predictions of future climate ...

As a potentially historic El Niño builds in the Pacific, evidence suggests that climate change is ratcheting up the intensity ...

New UCLA research finds that airborne dust traps about twice as much heat as climate models have estimated, even though dust likely cools the planet overall. The effect of dust retaining heat is equal ...

Later this century, sometime toward my teenage son's late middle age, climate change might torch 50 percent of the world's gross domestic product. I'll say that again. Sometime around 2070–2090, ...
