Current global climate models (GCMs) support with high confidence the view that rising greenhouse gases and other anthropogenic forcings account for nearly all observed global surface warming—slightly ...

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 ...

The report warns many economic models are failing to capture extreme weather events and rising uncertainty likely to dominate ...

Earth system models (ESMs) integrate the interactions of atmosphere, ocean, land, ice, and biosphere to estimate the state of regional and global climate under a wide variety of conditions. A model ...

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 ...

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 ...

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

Climate change is already shaping our well-being. It affects mental health, spreads infectious diseases, disrupts work, damages food supplies and forces families to leave their homes because of ...

Climate crisis could cause global financial crash as economic models fail to capture risk - Researchers say governments and ...

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

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

Across the coldest places on Earth, something quiet but powerful is happening beneath your feet and under the ice. As ...
