Mortality attributable to air pollution and extreme temperatures is a major concern, and it is expected to heighten in the future. In a new study led by the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry, an ...

Ozone changes could add about 0. 268 watts of warming influence per square meter between 2015 and 2050 under a high-pollution climate scenario, about 40% more than earlier estimates.

Climate change is starving the Arctic Ocean of essential nutrients, with the region's six largest rivers now delivering far less of the type of nitrogen that marine ecosystems need to survive, ...

In the face of a warming world, some scientists argue that directly removing carbon dioxide from the air could help limit the severity of climate change. Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is an open field ...

Rachel Feltman: Antarctica is the largest, coldest desert on the planet, with snowfall dropping less than six inches of water there each year. But for such a dry place, Antarctica has an outsize ...

In this chapter, we will discuss the chemistry behind climate change. We will present data about the climate, and help you analyze the data to come up with your own conclusions about what is happening ...

More than 100 shallow freshwater lakes stretching over 1,000 kilometers along southern Brazil and Uruguay could become an ...

Michael Heagy, head of the School of Chemistry and Materials Science, published Climate Change Chemistry: Principles and Mitigation Strategies, which examines the chemistry behind major environmental ...

Acquire a holistic view of Earth's climate and how it impacts and interacts with the environment and human society in the climate science bachelor’s program at UAlbany. Learn how different parts of ...
