NASA research finds alarming human-caused shifts in the global water cycle.

In a recently published paper, NASA scientists use nearly 20 years of observations to show that the global water cycle is changing in unprecedented ways. Most of these changes are driven by activities such as agriculture and could impact ecosystems and water management, particularly in certain regions.

Russia’s Shiveluch volcano erupted following a 7.0 magnitude earthquake off the eastern coast of the country, reported by state-run media outlet TASS.

Warming global climate is altering the vegetation structure of northern forests. This trend will persist through the end of the century, based on NASA research.

By using natural humidity differences to pump carbon dioxide out of the air, the team overcame the energy challenge. The presence of water also sped up the transport of carbon dioxide through the membrane, addressing the kinetic challenge.

Massive dust storm cloud (haboob) is close to enveloping a military camp as it rolls over Al Asad, Iraq

Although it is not yet clear how the Alaskan dust may affect the global climate system, new research from the University of Leeds and the National Centre for Atmospheric Science suggests that the effect is greater than previously believed.

Pattern of thermohaline circulation also known as meridional overturning circulation

According to new calculations from the University of Copenhagen, important ocean currents that redistribute heat, cold, and precipitation between the tropics and northernmost parts of the Atlantic region will stop around 2060.

El Niño is a complex climate phenomenon that occurs irregularly in the tropical Pacific Ocean. It is characterized by a warming of the sea surface temperature in the eastern and central equatorial Pacific, which can have significant impacts on weather patterns around the world.

June 2023 was the hottest June ever recorded, according to NASA’s global temperature analysis. This analysis is based on data collected from weather stations, research stations, ships, and ocean buoys. Scientists at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York analyze this data to account for uncertainties and maintain consistent methods for calculating global…

Denmark Strait cataract underwater waterfall

The biggest waterfall in the world is underwater. It’s located in the Denmark Strait between Iceland and Greenland. It moves three million cubic meters per second, enough to shape global weather.

Massive wildfires in Canada have destroyed millions of hectares of forest, displacing over 100,000 people and impacting air quality for millions in North America. The ecological disaster’s effects have even been observed in the atmosphere over Germany.

NASA finds June 2023 the hottest month on record.

The largest waterfall in the world is nearly 2 miles high and found underwater. Called the Denmark Strait Cataract, it moves so much water, it shapes global weather.

It’s not just North America that’s impacted. Smoke from Canadian wildfires has been hanging over Germany for more than a month.
