Researchers at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (Italian Institute of Technology - IIT) and Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca (University of Milan-Bicocca), in cooperation with Acquario di Genova (Genoa Aquarium) in Italy, have recently published a study in ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, which demonstrates the efficacy of curcumin, a natural antioxidant substance extracted from turmeric, in reducing coral bleaching, a phenomenon caused primarily by climate change.
The Brazilian coast, especially in the South and Southeast regions, is already suffering from the impact of climate change, with increasingly extreme surface air temperatures and more frequent swings from heat to cold and back. This is one of the results of a study described in an article published in Scientific Reports, a journal of the Springer Nature group.
Coastal forests are increasingly exposed to the effects of climate change and sea level rise. However, scientists have an incomplete understanding of what this means for soil stability. This experiment examined how soil might change when transplanted between parts of a tidal creek that differed in salinity.
On the heels of wildfires and flooding, an Argonne-led project from the U.S. Department of Energy's Urban Integrated Field Laboratory will help neighborhoods understand climate change in Chicago.
CABI collaborated with a global team of researchers from 57 institutions to lend its expertise in a landmark study that emphasizes the pressing need to safeguard the world’s forests from non-native pests in light of climate change.
A new study proposes ways to better incorporate adaptation in climate change research, addressing the uneven distribution of adaptation capacities and needs worldwide.
Climate change is a major global concern today. The world is experiencing a drastic increase in temperatures, both over land and oceans. Although this warming is global, some areas are warming faster than others.
The rainforest canopy, where the majority of the world’s species reside is least researched compared to the surface of Mars or the bottom of the ocean. GEDI, a NASA space laser that provided the first-ever detailed structure of the world’s rainforests, is about to change that.
Some of the world’s most renowned—and hard to sustain—vineyards are located in the hillsides of Italy, Portugal, and Spain, and are celebrated for their distinct flavor profiles and centuries of tradition.
Understanding how global warming affects regional precipitation is a significant challenge.
