Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are ...

We've been watching temperatures climb, extreme weather events intensify, and ice sheets shrink. Every weather forecast and climate projection relies on incredibly complex computer simulations that ...

Current global climate models (GCMs) support with high confidence the view that rising greenhouse gases and other ...

Climate scenarios must include fairness and equity to create realistic emissions pathways and support global cooperation.

Models, by definition, are approximations: useful, informative, and inevitably incomplete, because they are the only way to simplify a world too complex to grasp all at once. A new study on nitrous ...

The fight against climate change is ongoing, and while we're still a long way from finding an actually sustainable solution, researchers at Yale say that imperfect climate models may actually be far ...

Climate models may be underestimating—by anything from half to two degrees—how much hotter India’s non-metropolitan cities ...

The repeated claim that climate science is “settled” overlooks myriad uncertainties, competing mechanisms and computer models ...

Global climate models capture many of the processes that shape Earth's weather and climate. Based on physics, chemistry, ...

Climate models have been the basis for concern about climate change for more than 35 years. The US government, the United Nations, and organizations across the world have used model projections to ...

Tiny marine plankton that build calcium carbonate shells play an outsized role in regulating Earth’s climate, quietly pulling carbon from the atmosphere and helping lock it away in the deep ocean. New ...

On the heels of major Democratic Party donor Bill Gates reversing course by admitting that climate change will not “decimate civilization,” the world’s most prestigious scientific journal, Nature, ...
