I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
“#Climate change is altering terrestrial water availability” Credit: CC0 Public Domain The amount and location of available terrestrial water is changing worldwide. An international research team led by ETH Zurich has now proved for the first time that human-induced climate change is responsible for the changes observed in available terrestrial water. Water is the lifeblood…
“#Major new paleoclimatology study shows global warming has upended 6,500 years of cooling” Holocene global mean surface temperature. Credit: Victor O. Leshyk, Northern Arizona University Over the past 150 years, global warming has more than undone the global cooling that occurred over the past six millennia, according to a major study published June 30 in…
“#Historic floods reveal how salt marshes can save lives in the future” Salt marshes in the Westerschelde (near Rilland). Credit: Edwin Paree Coastal wetlands like salt marshes are increasingly recognized as valuable natural defenses that protect coasts against strong wave attacks. Yet their performance during real-world, extreme storms has rarely been told. By digging into…
“#Global warming will cause ecosystems to produce more methane than first predicted” Credit: CC0 Public Domain New research suggests that as the Earth warms natural ecosystems such as freshwaters will release more methane than expected from predictions based on temperature increases alone. The study, published today in Nature Climate Change, attributes this difference to changes…
“#Red Sea’s coral reefs help protect Saudi Arabia coast” KAUST’s modeling reveals the important role of offshore reefs in protecting coastal zones and highlights the need to conserve the region’s coral reefs.

“#Unknown currents in Southern Ocean have been observed with help of seals” A Weddell seal collects data in the ocean while swimming. This information doesn’t only help marine sciences researchers, but also biologist, to understand the seals’ habitat better.

“#Tsunamis pose significant hazard to the south eastern and western coasts of Ireland, new study suggests” Credit: CC0 Public Domain Tsunamis pose a significant hazard to the south eastern and western coasts of Ireland, according to wave experts at University College Dublin and Geological Survey Ireland. The researchers, led by Professor Frédéric Dias of the…
“#700-km Brazil ‘megaflash’ sets lightning record: UN” The UN weather agency measures lightning using satellite imagery technology The UN’s weather agency announced Thursday the longest lightning bolt on record—a single flash in Brazil on October 31, 2018 that cut the sky across more than 700 kilometers. That is equivalent to the distance between Boston and…
“#Scientists reconstruct spring hydroclimate using living and dead alpine juniper shrubs” Close-up view of Wilson juniper shrub patches around the Nam Co Lake and hydroclimate (Standardized Moisture Anomaly Index) reconstruction from 1605 to 2010.
