Extreme coastal flooding, once considered rare, is occurring much more frequently today due to sea-level rise caused by climate change. This is evidenced by the results of a new study…

The seas are warming and rising faster than at any point in recorded history. Coral reefs are collapsing and Arctic ice could be gone in summer within a decade or…

Extreme floods that once swamped coastal communities only rarely are becoming far more common as climate change caused by humans pushes sea levels higher, according to new research published Wednesday….

A little-known process on the Arctic seafloor is coming into focus as sea ice retreats, and scientists say it could weaken the region’s broader food web. More sunlight is now…

There’s a strange anomaly in the North Atlantic, just south of Greenland: A ‘cold blob’ of ocean and air that’s cooling down while the rest of the world warms up….

By ALEXA ST. JOHN Human-driven sea level rise has increased how often extreme coastal flooding occurs around the world, according to a study released Wednesday. Experts say the findings are…

Microplastics in the atmosphere are heating the planet, magnifying climate change impacts, according to new research.  Scientists in China and the United States found that tiny, coloured plastic particles absorb…
