Heat Absorption Oceans play a crucial role in absorbing excess heat generated by greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, they take ...

Global warming is moving faster than the best models can keep a handle on. Fifty years into the project of modeling Earth’s ...

Climate and Earth system modelling is the use of mathematical representations of key components and properties of the atmosphere, ocean and biosphere to construct computer models. These models ...

This may not sound important, but it turns out this process is critical in understanding the flow of carbon, in Earth’s climate system, where it goes and then where it finally resides.

In this book, Trenberth uses the concept of energy flows to explain, in accessible terms, how Earth's climate system operates ... of energetic reservoirs and fluxes among the various climate system ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Tokyo has created a dataset of the whole atmosphere, enabling new research to ...

An Earth system model (ESM) is a type of climate model that combines components of the Earth's system: the atmosphere, oceans, land, ice, and biogeochemical cycles, to simulate interactions and ...

To consider how an Earth system science approach can inform research on climate intervention, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a virtual workshop on June 20-22, 2023 ...

The big news in Earth science this year was all about climate change, with extreme weather, flooding and drought attributed to warming. Scientists also warned about much worse to come if we don't ...
