Land subsidence is the gradual sinking of the ground, which can damage buildings, foundations, and drainage and sewage systems, and may increase flood risks. However, information on land subsidence dynamics remains limited, which makes it difficult for policymakers to identify where risks are intensifying and where…
Hurricane Simon lashed Mexico's Pacific coast with severe winds and heavy rain on Monday as it threatened to make landfall this week, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center.
В первом полугодии 2026 года автомобили, работающие исключительно на бензине, заняли 49% мирового рынка новых машин. Это произошло впервые с тех пор, как автомобили получили широкое распространение, сообщает южнокорейское издание SBS со ссылкой на данные японской газеты Nikkei и аналитической компании Mobility Global.
Hurricanes can produce enormous amounts of rain, adding up to trillions of gallons of water. But the big risk isn't the total amount—it's how much rain falls on each location.
In the deep sea, it never stops snowing. The type of snow that falls in the ocean, known as marine snow, is very different from the flaky geometric wonders that fall on land. Marine snow describes tiny clumps of organic and inorganic detritus—think mucus, poop, silt, dead plankton, etc.—that rain from the shallows…
The Congo Basin is one of the few places on Earth where the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has failed to track the long-term shift in extreme heat and rainfall. The reason is a lack of readily available data. To fill this gap, scientists have digitized thousands of handwritten weather records, which reveal…
The scientific evidence for human-caused global warming is stronger than ever, according to a major new review—despite a U.S. government report questioning the science.
Hurricane Simon shifted track slightly on Sunday and was forecast to skirt Mexico's west coast without making landfall, while packing heavy rain and severe winds.
An intensifying El Niño broke a temperature record in a key zone of the Pacific in September, the EU's climate monitor said Monday, in another sign the weather pattern is gaining exceptional strength.
Australia's normally dry, rust-colored outback has erupted into a spectacular carpet of wildflowers after unusually heavy rains, potentially producing its most impressive bloom in nearly 20 years. NASA satellite images capture the stunning transformation, which has even brought rare flowers to the grounds of a remote…
