Years ago, scientists noted something odd: Earth’s Northern and Southern Hemispheres reflect nearly the same amount of sunlight back into space. The reason why this symmetry is odd is because the ...
The ocean has helped mitigate global warming by absorbing around a quarter of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions, along with more than 90% of the excess heat those emissions generate. This ...
Improvements in subseasonal-to-seasonal forecasting (S2S), which projects weather 2 weeks to 2 months in advance, could support more informed decisions about when to plant and irrigate crops, among ...
Lead is a neurotoxin that can damage multiple body systems and lead to learning and developmental problems. The element has been phased out of use in paint, gasoline, and other industrial applications ...

Long-term weather forecasting is a difficult task, partly because weather systems are inherently chaotic. Though mathematical equations can approximate the underlying physics of weather, tiny ...
Map of inferred wind directions from parabola deposits (arrows). Arrow color denotes the age of the deposit – light blue is youngest and dark blue is oldest. The older arrows are more dispersed in ...
