How much are people across the world paying for their carbon emissions?
Around 30% of the world’s emissions have some carbon price, but how much extra are people paying? - Recently, I was in a meeting...
Opposing hydroclimate extremes in Central and mainland Southeast Asia over past millennium
Opposing wet and dry conditions in Central and mainland Southeast Asia over the past millennium were controlled by climate variability over the Pacific and...
Almost the whole of Japan moved eastward after 2011 earthquake
An extremely unusual tectonic movement took place 15 minutes after the Tohoku earthquake in 2011, causing almost the whole of Japan to move 5...

Chaotic fluctuations in Greenland ice streams limit predictability of ice sheet collapse
This model study sets out to investigate how the collapse of the Greenland ice sheet to a virtually ice-free state due to increasing temperatures...
El Niño Is Underway
NASA -
El Niño, characterized by warmer-than-normal water temperatures in parts of the equatorial Pacific, made its return in June 2026. Observations of sea surface height...
Negative core–mantle boundary heat flux beneath low-shear-wave-velocity provinces
Nature Geoscience, Published online: 17 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41561-026-02018-w
Heat flux across the core–mantle boundary is laterally variable, and heat may flow into the core beneath...
Im Dunkeln leuchtende Pflanzen warnen vor Ernteschädlingen
EUROnews -
Spanische Forschende haben Pflanzen gezüchtet, die im Dunkeln leuchten und bei Virusbefall die Farbe ändern – so lassen sich Krankheiten in Feldern früh mit...
Improved latitudinal carbon budgets from global airborne surveys
We show that large scale CO2patterns measured by global airborne surveys are able to discriminate among a collection of diverse atmospheric models that estimate...
NASA spots giant ocean swell that could signal El Niño’s return
NASA satellites have detected a vast pulse of warm water reaching the coast of South America, signaling that El Niño is likely developing. The...
