When it comes to the probability of future ice-free summers in the Arctic, a small range of climate warming over the next century could make all the difference.
A NASA-funded satellite will study the inner radiation belt of Earth's magnetosphere, providing insight into the energetic particles that can disrupt satellites and threaten spacewalking astronauts.
Drier summers and a decline in average snowpack over the past 40 years have severely hampered the establishment of spruce and fir trees in Colorado's Front Range.
Increased temperatures caused localized extinction of a common Rocky Mountain flowering plant, a result that could serve as a herald of future population declines.
The first-ever molecular evidence of obligate symbiosis in lichens could shed new light on how and why some multicellular organisms consolidate their genomes in order to co-exist.
The changing topography of ice sheets in the Northern Hemisphere during the last Ice Age forced changes in the climate of Antarctica, a previously undocumented inter-polar climate change mechanism.
