Research team conducts meta-analysis on the potential of diverse pasture lands for dairy farming.

Climate-driven oxygen loss in the Black Sea thousands of years ago triggered the expansion of microorganisms capable of producing the potent neurotoxin methylmercury.

The timing of emissions reductions, even more so than the rate of reduction, will be key to avoiding catastrophic thresholds for ice-melt and sea-level rise, according to a new Cornell study.

A new study found compound drought-heatwave events are rippling farther and lasting through the night, raising risks for southwestern North America.

Solar farms could become important refuges for bumblebees in Britain, a new study reveals - though their benefits only go so far.

On the edge of California’s Monterey Bay, ecologist Matthew Savoca and a team of volunteers sift through sand and seawater for microplastics, one of the planet’s most pervasive forms of pollution.

Obesity has long been acknowledged as a risk factor for a wide range of diseases, but a more precise link between obesity and Alzheimer’s disease has remained a mystery – until now.

University at Albany chemists have created a new high-energy compound that could revolutionize rocket fuel and make space flights more efficient. 

Global sea-level change has now been measured by satellites for more than 30 years, and a comparison with climate projections from the mid-1990s shows that they were remarkably accurate, according to two Tulane University researchers whose findings appear in Earth's Future, an open-access journal published by the American Geophysical Union.

Improved carbon-cement supercapacitors could turn the concrete around us into massive energy storage systems.
