Mathematicians at OpenAI showed that the Navier-Stokes equations, which describe how fluids flow, can sometimes “blow up.” But the massive result is not without controversy.

Variations in Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation strength through abrupt Dansgaard–Oeschger events during Pleistocene glacial periods controlled ocean heat content, and heat uptake by the pla...

A new proposed rule rewrites the terms of U.S. science

Why Antarctica became glaciated ∼34 million years ago (Ma) remains debated, as relatively warm climates and sea temperatures appear inconsistent with ice sheet formation. Although a critical decline i...

This study shows that Cordilleran ice discharge to the North Pacific may have triggered AMOC weakening during Heinrich Stadials, potentially destabilizing the European and Laurentide Ice Sheets and le...

Abstract. The Earth's climate sensitivity remains a significant source of uncertainty in climate projections. A key metric is the Transient Climate Response (TCR), which incorporates aspects of Equili...

Ice core records of preindustrial methane indicate variability of ±30 ppb (±5%) on multidecadal-to-centennial timescales. Previous work has attribu...

Sea-level rise in conjunction with storm surge and tidal variations leads to extreme sea levels that threaten coastal systems. Here the authors use tide-gauge data and models to quantify how anthropog...

Assessing the impact of rising air temperatures on the Antarctic Ice Sheet is hampered by the coarse resolution of climate models. Here, the authors use an observationally constrained statistical meth...

Concentration of precipitation in large events decreases land water availability, and this effect will further increase with a future warming climate.

Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, Published online: 07 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s43017-026-00777-zGlaciers lost 408 ± 132 Gt of mass during the hydrological year 2025, equivalent to 1.1 ± 0.4 mm sea-level rise. Since 1975, glacier mass loss has totalled 9,583 ± 1,211 Gt, equivalent to 26.4 ± 3.3 mm of sea-level rise, with six of the highest mass-loss years on record occurring in the past seven years.

The collapse of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation would result in increase of 47-83 ppm of global mean atmospheric carbon dioxide and 0. 2 °C of additional global warming at higher carb...

Nature Geoscience - Grounding-line motion of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is driven by climate variability, challenging the assumption that the bed slope at the grounding line alone controls their...

Englacial structures in the Greenland Ice Sheet contain debris lifted hundreds of metres into the ice column, likely forming as the expanding ice sheet overrode its frozen margin following the last in...

Antarctic ice cores hint that changes in the ocean might have played a larger part than have greenhouse gases in key climate shifts of the past three million years.

We propose a novel framework for evaluating physical climate model emulators for use in global warming projections Calibrating a widely used emulator to match the historical warming of GCMs does ...

Meta-analyses on a global scale show that the measured coastal mean sea level is higher than assumed in most coastal hazard assessments.

The Grounding Line (GL)—the transition from ice grounded on the continent and ice afloat in the ocean—is a sensitive indicator of glacier stability...

Observed top-of-atmosphere radiation fluxes and surface warming reveal a strong rise in effective radiative forcing (ERF) since 2010 Feedback responses are constrained using observed interannual ...
