Five LMU researchers have been awarded Consolidator Grants by the European Research Council. Their projects deal with climate change, strokes, quantum physics, mitochondria, and cancer diagnosis.

A new study reveals significant temperature variations beneath Greenland, reshaping our understanding of its tectonic history.

These underground heat patterns influence how the ice sheet interacts with the bedrock, which is important for predicting future sea level rise in the context of climate change.

Climate change—including high temperatures and heat waves—has been shown to pose serious risks to the environment, food systems, and human health, but new research finds that it may also lead to delays in early childhood development.

Many organizations are taking actions to shrink their carbon footprint, such as purchasing electricity from renewable sources or reducing air travel. MIT researchers found that even if each activity achieves the same CO2 reduction, the broader air quality impacts can be quite different.
