British astronaut Tim Peake has expressed his concern from the International Space Station for those affected by floods in his home country. The former Army pilot took a picture of the UK as he passed overhead, posting it on his Twitter account. Mr Peake also told US radio stations in a link-up that his present […]
The climatic conditions needed by 285 species of land birds in the United States have moved rapidly between 1950 and 2011 as a result of climate change, according to a recent paper published in Global Change Biology. “Our goal was to look at the climate where these birds were observed breeding over this period and […]
All over the planet, every day, oceans send plumes of sea spray into the atmosphere. Beyond the poetry of crashing ocean waves, this salt- and carbon-rich spray also has a dramatic effect on cloud formation and duration. In a new paper published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Colorado State University […]
The amount of methane gas escaping from the ground during the long cold period in the Arctic each year and entering Earth’s atmosphere is likely much higher than estimated by current carbon cycle models, concludes a major new study led by San Diego State University and including scientists from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California. […]
Accelerating rates of sea-level rise linked to climate change pose a major threat to coastal marshes and the vital carbon capturing they perform. But a new Duke University study finds marshes may be more resilient than previously believed. The research, published this month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, shows that the […]
Wild bees, crucial pollinators for many crops, are on the decline in some of the main agricultural regions of the United States, according to scientists who produced the first national map of bee populations and identified numerous trouble spots. The researchers on Monday cited 139 counties as especially worrisome, with wild bee numbers decreasing while […]
পরিবেশের ভারসাম্য রক্ষা ও অর্থনৈতিক দিক দিয়ে বাংলাদেশের সবচেয়ে গুরুত্বপূর্ণ বনাঞ্চল সুন্দরবন। ২০১৬ সালকে পর্যটন বছর ঘোষণা করায় রয়েল বেঙ্গল টাইগার ও চিত্রা হরিণ বিচরণের এই ক্ষেত্রটি হতে পারে পর্যটকদের অন্যতম আকর্ষণের স্থান। রোমাঞ্চকর যাত্রার শুরুতেই অনেকের জন্য আশাহত হওয়ার ঘটনা। সুন্দরবনের কাছেই গড়ে উঠেছে দুটি সিমেন্ট কারখানা। পশুর নদী দিয়ে সুন্দরবনে প্রবেশের পরের চিত্র […]
Beijing has ordered 2,100 factories to suspend or reduce production as part of its “red alert” measures to deal with smog, the government has said, as the city remained shrouded under a toxic haze for the third consecutive day on Monday. The Chinese capital imposed the highest tier of a four-colour smog warning system for four days […]
Prague Zoo says it likely has the longest Chinese giant salamander now on Earth. The critically endangered animal is the largest amphibian on the planet. In a statement on Sunday, the zoo says Karlo, a Chinese giant salamander it received 19 months ago from the State Museum of Natural History in Karlsruhe, Germany, is likely the biggest […]
As nations across the globe negotiate how to reduce their contributions to climate change, researchers at Penn are investigating just how the coming changes will impact the planet. What’s clear is that the effect extends beyond simple warming. Indeed, the very physics and chemistry of the oceans are also shifting, and are forecast to change […]
