Sustained extreme heat can damage, weaken and kill all living things, from wheat crops to koalas and fruit bats.

Heatwaves in a net zero World, Perkins-Kirkpatrick, Sarah, Palmer, Lucinda, King, Andrew, Ziehn, Tilo

A new study suggests heatwaves will not revert back towards preindustrial conditions for at least 1,000 years after emissions target reached

The effect of high temperature on plant performance and survival is a topic of great interest given the ongoing rise in global heatwave frequency, duration, and intensity. The temperature at which ph...

A transition from carbon sink to source for the aboveground woody biomass of moist tropical Australian forests has occurred, driven by increasingly extreme climate anomalies.

In revealing why it took him so long to come out as bisexual, the former West Coast Eagle highlights just how far the sport has to go

High planting density boosts crop yields but also heightens pest and pathogen risks. How plants adapt their defenses under these conditions remains unclear. In this study, we reveal that maize enhance...

The year 2023 witnessed an extraordinary surge in marine heatwaves (MHWs) across Earth’s oceans, setting new records in duration, extent, and intensity, with MHW activity totaling 53.6 billion °C days...

Scientists are pushing plants beyond their comfort zone to test their resilience to warming

The re-election of Labor in May’s Federal election was soon followed by another drop in the Reserve Bank of Australia’s official interest rate, with the hope that cost of living pressures will fall in...

Trump’s 57% proposed cut to agency would drop grant success rates to 7% and gut education and training

Abstract. Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate is critical to bette...

Efforts to anticipate and adapt to future climate can benefit from historical experiences. We examine agroclimatic conditions over the past 50 y fo...

Climate models, impact models and demographic data are used to estimate the number of people projected to experience unprecedented lifetime exposure to extreme climate events across multiple dimension...

The endless churn of damaging actions from the Trump administration toward science—from freezing and canceling grants to ending programs that encourage greater participation in science—has wreaked hav...

At the beginning of April, I attended the annual editorial meeting of independent plant science journal New Phytologist. New Phytologist is one of the world’s highest ranked plant science journals – I...
