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

Hybrid climate modeling has emerged as an effective way to reduce the computational costs associated with cloud-resolving ...

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 ...

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

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

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 ...

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

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