Six measures could save 1.6 million lives a year: WHO
Implementing a few climate and health measures could save nearly 1.6 million lives a year and generate trillions of dollars for the economy, the World Health Organization said Wednesday.
Time to wake up MetOp-SG-B1 weather satellite
Following a short period in storage after arriving at Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana, the MetOp Second Generation-B1 satellite has been transferred to a cleanroom and removed from its transport container. The team is now preparing to reactivate this ‘sleeping beauty, and begin the final checks and preparations…
North Atlantic's 'cold blob' may contain climate nuance
Climate observers have long tied the strength of a major ocean current to water temperatures in the so-called "cold blob" in the North Atlantic Ocean. The 965,000-square-mile (2.5 million square kilometers) area south and southeast of Greenland cooled by as much as 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit over the past century as other…
Southern Ocean waters reveal distinct nutrient recycling pathways during decades-long journeys north
The Southern Ocean may seem far removed from the North Pacific or the Gulf of Maine, but its waters are linked to all the world's major ocean basins through a vast circulation system.
Tijuana River pollution doesn't stay put—it can travel seven times farther than expected
Waste dumped into the Tijuana River can travel seven times farther than expected before becoming airborne and affecting San Diego's air, at least 20 miles (32 kilometers) from its source, according to new UC Riverside research.
Cooking is a bigger source of harmful air particles than vehicle exhausts in London and Beijing
There have been decades of regulations to make vehicles greener and improve air quality in London and Beijing, as well as a popular shift toward less polluting road transport. Now, total emissions of harmful air pollutants from vehicle exhausts are lower than those from cooking in the centers of these two megacities…
Global accounting reveals economic toll of ecosystem losses from rising seas
A global accounting puts the value of ecosystem services that could be lost to sea level rise at well over 100 billion in 2020 international dollars (Int$2020) per year by 2100, according to a study—and the nations that are likely to lose the most are not the highest emitters.
Researchers target PFAS with lower-temperature destruction method
Removing harmful chemicals from contaminated water is only one step toward their elimination. Once collected in filtration materials, these chemicals must still be destroyed and detoxified to prevent contamination from moving into another waste stream.
Mapping Kīlauea's magma reservoirs at high resolution
The Hawaiian volcano Kīlauea is among the most active on Earth. Not only did it erupt almost continuously from 1983 to 2018, but it also began a new series of eruptions in late 2024 that continue as of late 2026. The activity and accessibility of the volcano have enabled scientists to collect a wealth of data.
Five ways that sea‑level rise affects your daily life, even if you live inland
Rising sea levels might seem like someone else's problem if you live inland. But even miles from the coast, changing sea levels can affect the food we eat, the goods we buy, the energy we use and the taxes we pay.
