Broken bodies found at a house in Pompeii suggest that earthquakes played a role in the legendary tragedy.
These destructive, radar-dodging twisters often form at night. Emerging data from the U.S. Southeast might soon make forecasting the tornadoes possible.
Off-the-charts warming could fire up more hurricanes, intensify coral bleaching and accelerate the melting of Antarctic sea ice.
Soil erosion washes pollutants into streams and rivers — but plants may help limit that.
Scientists made a device that converts the greenhouse gas into formate. This salt can then run a fuel cell to make electricity.
From the manufacturing of our favorite devices to using them for social interactions, our digital lives can have a big climate impact.
This dangerous trend appears relatively new — and growing. Studies also have begun linking it to our warming world.
The salty gel absorbs more water from the air than similar gels, even in desert climates. This could provide clean water for drinking or farming.
Living corals could be frozen for safekeeping. Scientists could later revive them to restore reef ecosystems that are withering in warming seas.
