A recent study conducted by researchers from McGill University, in collaboration with scientists from Spain, Mexico, Portugal, Denmark, Australia, South Africa, and various Canadian universities, explores the significance of temperature in determining the current habitats of animal species.
Due to the very long rotation times of trees 100 years old or more, the forest sector is being particularly affected by the changes brought about by climate change, especially by the impact of drought.
If global temperatures rise by 1 degree Celsius or more beyond their current levels, billions of individuals annually will face conditions of extreme heat and humidity that hinder their natural ability to cool down.
Scientists suggest that the record-warm oceans, changes in ocean currents and winds, and the developing El Niño phenomenon may all be contributing factors to the alarmingly low sea ice levels in Antarctica this year.
In early 2024, Royal Caribbean International is set to introduce the world's largest cruise ship, the Icon of the Seas, an astounding 365-meter-long vessel that dwarfs even the Titanic.
Researchers from the University of Waterloo and Toronto Metropolitan University analyse heat and air quality effects on health to guide climate adaptation measures.
Terrifying Greece wildfires continue to ravage the island of Rhodes, forcing thousands of tourists to flee, while suspicions of arson and the heatwave add to the crisis.
Satellite measurements have detected some of the most severe marine heatwave increases on Earth in the waters surrounding the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Researchers find that snow algae growing in the Pacific Northwest of the US has exacerbated melting of snow, exposing glacier ice to warm temperatures.
As global temperatures rise, deadly coral disease is becoming more prevalent on reefs. Likely to become endemic, researchers highlight the need for urgent mitigation of coral disease.
University of Oxford research reveals that the hottest days in North-West Europe are warming twice as fast as average summer days due to climate change.
