A recent study focusing on one of the worlds' three largest genera of flowering plants suggests its success is linked to Earth's relatively cold climate during the last 10 million years

New study finds surface waters on early Mars may have been habitable for microbial life

Vast funding goes into research on the impact of climate change and adaptation to it, rather than into trying find out how it can be prevented socially

Cardiff University scientists have shed new light on the Earth's climate behavior during the last known period of global warming over 14 million years ago

The rate and extent of future thawing of permafrost, and consequent release of its carbon, is hard to predict from modern observations alone

Improved inland surface water quality across the country is mainly attributable to reduced pollution emissions in the industrial, rural, and urban residential sectors

A comparison of protected and impacted reefs in Cuba and Florida Keys

Although coastal wetlands cover only about two percent of the ocean surface, they are estimated to sequester more than 50 percent of the carbon captured by the ocean per year

The image may sound like an alien winter wonderland, but the scientists who led the research said it is akin to how rocks form inside volcanoes

Humankind will need to harness carbon capture and storage technologies to help keep global warming to 2 degrees C or less; new research shows that there's plenty of room to store captured CO2—in offshore geologic rock formations
