Environmental research in the tropics is heavily skewed, according to a comprehensive study led from Umeå University. Humid lowland forest ecosystems receive a disproportionate amount of attention, while colder and drier regions that are more affected by climate change are severely underrepresented.
New research involving the University of East Anglia (UEA) reveals how fast the world’s river deltas are sinking and the human-driven causes.
Home to hundreds of millions of people, until now it was unclear what the rate of delta elevation loss is, or what is driving delta subsidence.
In a new study published today in Nature, scientists report that land subsidence caused by humans - through the extraction of groundwater - is the main culprit.
A six-year study, led by PhD researcher Sarah Watts of the University’s Faculty of Natural Sciences, looked at the impact of deer management on mountain woodland.
A study published in Science Bulletin, based on a plausible global emissions scenario for 2 °C aligned with China’s net-zero pathway, reveals a hidden warming challenge in climate action: aerosols co-reduced with greenhouse gases will gradually diminish their masking effect on global warming, potentially making it difficult to curb the current rate of warming over the next two decades.
Companies undercount emissions from their supply chains by billions of tons, a new study reveals. A new model could help them find and shrink the biggest contributors to their carbon footprints.
Researchers from the IIASA Biodiversity and Natural Resources Program are involved in the recently launched EU-funded Trees4Adapt project. The project focuses on tree-based solutions for climate adaptation, aiming to strengthen Europe’s adaptation and resilience to climate change in a way that supports people and nature.
A synthesis conducted by researchers at the University of Gothenburg shows that people tend to rate their own risk of being affected by climate change as lower than that of others. This perception may reduce individuals’ willingness to act and slow down necessary climate measures.
