Better Simulation of El Niño Events Reduces Uncertainty in Future Climate Projections

Better Simulation of El Niño Events Reduces Uncertainty in Future Climate Projections

A new study led by University of Hawai'i at Manoa researchers, published in the journal Nature Communications this week, revealed that correctly simulating ocean current variations hundreds of feet below the ocean surface - the so-called Pacific Equatorial Undercurrent - during El Niño events is key in reducing the uncertainty of predictions of future warming in the eastern tropical Pacific.

Study Shows Rising Temperatures can Impact Coastal Ice Shelves in Antarctica

Study Shows Rising Temperatures can Impact Coastal Ice Shelves in Antarctica

According to a recent study, many of the coastal ice shelves in Antarctica would be rapidly destroyed if growing temperatures continue to push the melt water into various fractures that are presently entering their surfaces.
