And while weather patterns can change from year to year, Lake Superior appears to be behaving
in ways that, to
scientists, indicate long - term
climate change: Water temperatures are rising and evaporation is up, which
leads to lower water levels
in some seasons.
«Two generations ago, people were interring waste
in different areas of the world, and now
climate change is modifying those sites,» said William Colgan, a

climate change is exacerbating this issue, and cited an example of a good collaboration between
scientists and the local community, which
led to the documentation of five tropical parasites
in Lowndes County.
Slower population growth that
leads to eight billion people
in 2050 rather than to the currently projected 9.1 billion would save one billion to two billion tons of carbon annually by 2050, according to estimates by

The research,
led by
scientists at the University of Miami (UM) Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science and partners, has important implications for the long - term survival of coral reefs worldwide, which have been
in worldwide decline from multiple stressors such as
climate change and ocean pollution.
«The paper correctly highlights that other human stressors, not only the
climate ones, are very important for long - term sustainability, including the need to reduce inequality», said Carlos Nobre (not a co-author), one of the world's
leading Earth System
scientists, who recently won the prestigious Volvo Environment Prize
in Sustainability for his role
in understanding and protecting the Amazon.
«The penguins are the innocent bystanders experiencing feast or famine depending on what the Equatorial Undercurrent is doing from year to year,» said Kristopher Karnauskas, a

in Geophysical Research Letters, an American Geophysical Union journal.
Smith, one of the
leading opponents of mainstream
climate science
in Congress, has repeatedly accused federal
climate scientists of engaging
in a massive conspiracy to falsify
climate data.
Moving the chemical complexity of the ocean to the laboratory represented a major advance that will enable many new studies to be performed,» said Kimberly Prather, Distinguished Chair

The study, by an international team of
scientists led by the University of Cambridge, examined how changes
in ocean currents
in the Atlantic Ocean were related to
climate conditions
in the northern hemisphere during the last ice age, by examining data from ice cores and fossilised plankton shells.
Their intent, apparently, was to disparage the views of
scientists who disagree with their contention that continued business - as - usual increases
in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions produced from the burning of coal, gas, and oil will
lead to a host of cataclysmic
climate - related problems.
The methane hydrates with the highest

Deforestation may have far greater consequences for
climate change
in some soils than
in others, according to new research
led by Yale University
scientists — a finding that could provide critical insights into which ecosystems must be managed with extra care because they are vulnerable to biodiversity loss and which ecosystems are more resilient to widespread tree removal.
Forests are also vulnerable to changes
in climate,
leading scientists to explore whether they can continue their sequestering magic
in a warming world.
The Wall Street Journal

They may also be news briefings where the SMC works with
scientists to give the national media a new story on developments within science, whether it's a report on
climate change, a paper on stem cells being published
in a
leading journal, or science funding cuts
in the latest budget.
Last year, for instance, a team
