Antarctic Ice Sheet Sensitivity Surged 1 Million Years Ago

Researchers in South Korea have found that the Antarctic ice sheet became dramatically more responsive to climate forcing after a key shift in Earth's ice age cycles roughly one million years ago. The discovery has fresh implications for predicting future sea level rise.

Bitcoin Mining Forks Are Wasting Energy at Record Levels

A new study from University College London reveals that inefficiencies built into Bitcoin's proof-of-work mining system are wasting staggering amounts of energy — and the problem has grown dramatically over the past decade.

25-Year Seedling Study Reveals Michigan’s Forests’ Future

Michigan State University researchers spent 25 summers counting nearly 190,000 baby trees in the Manistee National Forest. Their findings offer a striking preview of how warming temperatures and shifting rainfall could reshape Michigan's woodlands for generations to come.

Southwest Drought Is Shrinking Wildlife Habitat, Study Finds

A sweeping 12-year study of GPS-collared wildlife in Utah and Nevada reveals that drought is shrinking suitable habitat for mule deer, black bears and cougars — with top predators hit hardest. Researchers warn the trend could threaten wildlife persistence as droughts grow more severe.

Ice Releases More Iron Than Models Predict, Study Finds

Ice isn't as inert as it looks. A new study from Umeå University reveals that freezing conditions dramatically speed up the release of iron from minerals — at rates that current environmental models may be severely underestimating.

Hurricanes Are Shifting From Carbon Sources to Sinks

Tropical cyclones have long pushed carbon out of the ocean and into the atmosphere, but new research shows that dynamic is rapidly changing — and the consequences for marine life and climate could be severe.

Rice Paddy Greenhouse Gas Emissions Have Doubled in 60 Years

A Boston College-led study finds that greenhouse gas emissions from rice paddies have doubled over the past six decades, now equaling roughly 1.1 billion tons of CO₂ annually. The good news: targeted changes to farm management could slash emissions by about 10% without reducing crop yields.
