Study Provides a Complete Estimate of Antarctic Sea Ice Extent Through the 20th Century

A study led by Ohio University researchers shows that the increase of sea ice surrounding Antarctica since 1979 is a unique feature of Antarctic climate since 1905 -; an observation that paints a dramatic first-ever picture for weather and climate implications on the world's southernmost continent.

Climate Change may Increase the Burden of Kidney Stone Disease

Rising temperatures due to climate change will lead to an increase in cases of kidney stones over the next seven decades, even if measures are put in place to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, according to a new study by researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP).

Refining the Understanding of Ozone Smog and Its Interactions with Climate

Climate change and air pollution are interlocking crises that threaten human health. Reducing emissions of some air pollutants can help achieve climate goals, and some climate mitigation efforts can in turn improve air quality.

Greater Warming of Humboldt Current System Highly Impacts the Ecosystem and Global Fishing Industry

Fundamental changes in the ocean, such as warming, acidification or oxygen depletion, may have significant consequences for the composition of fish stocks, including the displacement of individual species. Researchers at Kiel University (CAU), together with colleagues from Germany, Canada, the USA, and France, have reconstructed environmental conditions of the warm period 125,000 years ago (Eemian interglacial) using sediment samples from the Humboldt Current System off Peru.

Researchers Reveal Strategies to Help Dairy Farmers Adapt to Climate Change

Dairy farmers in the Northeast -; facing a warming climate that exacerbates nutrient pollution but lengthens the growing season -; can reduce the environmental impact of their operations and maximize revenues by double cropping and injecting manure into the soil, rather than broadcasting it.
