Climate scientists are confronting a hard truth: some of the most widely used models are struggling to keep up with the pace ...

Global warming does not affect our planet evenly. Some areas such as the Arctic region or high mountain peaks warm faster than the global average, whereas others, including large parts of the tropical ...

It never used to be possible to attribute individual weather events to climate change and map their full consequences. Thanks ...

A research team has evaluated a collection of climate models to better understand how well they can simulate multiyear El ...

Advanced computer models can quantify the impacts of climate change and other environmental challenges, providing deep insights into things like streamflow, vegetation, wildlife and even the risk of ...

Physicists are fond of Gedankenexperimente—thought experiments that are difficult or impossible to perform in the real world. Schrödinger’s cat is a well-known example of a thought experiment, used to ...

Models can predict catastrophic or modest damages from climate change, but not which of these futures is coming.

An ambitious form of climate modelling aims to pin the blame for disasters – from floods to heatwaves – on specific companies ...

The researchers applied statistical tools designed to identify structural changes in time series data over time, commonly called changepoint models, to four sets of global mean surface temperature ...
