The precipitation in West Antarctica, especially around the Antarctic Peninsula, exhibits large variability on the interannual time scale. In recent years, scientific research activities, tourism and fisheries have been experiencing ...
Human-made climate change is supercharging natural weather phenomena to drive heatwaves roasting Asia, Europe and North America that could make 2023 the hottest year since records began, scientists say.
Europe is currently in the midst of a heatwave. Italy, in particular, is expected to face blistering heat, with temperatures projected to reach 40℃ to 45℃. There's even a chance that the current European temperature record ...
Temperatures are sizzling across Europe this July amid an intense and prolonged period of heat. And it's only just begun. Italy, Spain, France, Germany and Poland are all facing a major heatwave with temperatures expected ...
Cold and unusual weather events in East Asia have significant adverse socioeconomic impacts. However, our understanding of the physical mechanisms and precursor signals of such abnormal weather events remains limited. The ...
The Philippine Sea (PS) is one of the regions with the strongest interannual variability in sea level and upper-layer circulation. During the developing stage of El Niño events, the Philippine Sea shows sea level falling ...
Heat waves in Aotearoa New Zealand over recent summers are already causing wide-ranging effects on the environment, a new study suggests.
Ever since its launch in 1990, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has been an interplanetary weather observer, keeping an eye on the largely gaseous outer planets and their ever-changing atmospheres. NASA spacecraft missions to ...
The warm Arctic-cold Eurasia (WACE) climate pattern is the main feature of winter temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere in the last 20 years. Extreme cold events related to this pattern have occurred frequently there.
The Okhotsk Sea in the western Pacific Ocean, surrounded by Russia and Japan, is the southernmost sea in the world to freeze seasonally. The northwestern part of this shallow sea is an active sea-ice production area, but ...
