Maps based on remote sensing analysis could inform remediation efforts by identifying whether agricultural lands were damaged by bombs, debris, or forced displacement of its caretakers.

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science - Jet stream response to future Arctic sea ice loss not underestimated by climate models

We compile ∼1,500 core-top benthic foraminiferal Mg-Sr-B-Li/Ca measurements from five species and one genus to produce new calibrations Many benthic foraminiferal elemental systems require multiv...

The Southern Annular Mode (SAM) has shifted towards its positive phase owing to ozone depletion and increasing greenhouse gas concentrations. This Review discusses the dynamics, trends and projections...

Dark oxygen production (DOP) broadly encompasses all light-independent pathways that produce oxygen (Ruff et al., 2024), including microbial and abiotic proc...

Climate change is altering the strength and position of Southern Ocean westerly winds but the ocean transport is stable. Here the authors use sea surface height to show that a poleward shift of the no...

Increased alkalinity significantly boosts growth rates of coccolithophores Gephyrocapsa huxleyi and Coccolithus braarudii Divergent responses between species arise as large C. braarudii rely on C...

Arctic sea-ice loss affects biological productivity, sustenance in coastal communities, and geopolitics. Forecasting these impacts requires mechanistic understanding of how Arctic sea ice responds to ...

The buffering capacity of the world’s oceans has helped offset the effects of CO2 emissions on climate; however, it is not without cost. Bruce Gibb discusses the causes, the chemistry and the conseque...

A human-driven increase in upwelling of carbon-rich deep waters threatens the efficiency of the Southern Ocean carbon sink, which substantially mitigates global warming. Long-term observations reveal ...

An intensive international study was coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and led by the BBC

The cycling of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the ocean is closely linked to seawater alkalinity and the regulation of atmospheric CO2. In the modern pelagic ocean, almost all CaCO3 is produced by three...

Changes in global mean sea level (GMSL) during the late Cenozoic remain uncertain. We use a reconstruction of changes in δ18O of seawater to reconstruct GMSL since 4.5 million years ago (Ma) that acco...

Cutting onions often leads to tear-inducing aerosol release, yet the underlying mechanics remain poorly understood. In this work, via high-speed ch...

Recurring deep ocean oxygen minimum events occur in the Pacific Southern Ocean during the warm climate interval Marine Isotope Stage 11. They are linked with perturbed Antarctic Bottom Water formation...

Upwelling generates a nutrient-rich “cold tongue” in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean (EEP), with impacts on global climate, oceanic biological productivity, and the carbon cycle. The cold tongue ...

Over the past three centuries, thousands of people across the British and Irish Isles have regularly recorded rainfall, often every day for decades. Their efforts allow us to reconstruct long-term tr...

Consider the annihilation of agricultural land alongside the genocide – and grasp the chilling totality of this attempt to eliminate all life, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Earth’s radiation can send some molecules spinning or vibrating, which is what makes them greenhouse gases. This infographic explains how relatively few heat-trapping molecules can have a planetary ef...

New analysis suggests our species began to emerge at least half a million years earlier than we thought

Diatom growth rates are determined by concentrations of CO2 and H+ across broad carbonate chemistry landscapes.

A better-ventilated North Pacific could have reduced the carbon of water upwelled in the Southern Ocean, reducing outgassing and revealing a remote influence on Southern Ocean biogeochemistry in glaci...
