Internal climate variability refers to the natural fluctuations arising from the chaotic interactions within the atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere and land surface. Ensemble climate models exploit this ...

In a time of increasing climate variability, researchers Pengfei Xue and Miraj B. Kayastha have developed regional Earth system models to better understand and predict extreme weather and ...

Human-caused warming needs about 30 years of records to rise above natural swings, and seven climate models get the wait ...

Environmental scientists are increasingly using enormous artificial intelligence models to make predictions about changes in weather and climate, but a new study by MIT researchers shows that bigger ...

Changes in rainfall within global monsoon regions affect the livelihoods of billions. For years, climate models have suggested that the fingerprint of human-caused climate change on monsoons would ...

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 ...

One of the most pervasive misunderstandings of climate — even among some who publish on climate — is the belief that any long-term trend in a measured climate variable indicates a change in climate, ...

Coral skeletons reveal El Niño is stronger than at any point in 1,000 years. Scientists say human-caused climate change is the reason.

El Nino climate change research: a landmark University of Michigan study published in Science finds El Ninos are now more ...

Much of the US just sweltered through the July 4 holiday weekend as an intense heat dome bore down, straining power grids and prompting the cancellation of many events. Washington, DC, saw a high of ...
