Q&A: How better climate data supports smarter environmental decisions

Q&A: How better climate data supports smarter environmental decisions Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor Accurate measurements are the foundation of effective environmental management and decision-making. Through advanced monitoring networks and computer models, Ken Davis, professor of meteorology and atmospheric science in Penn State's College of Earth and Mineral Sciences, and his research group are helping scientists, communities, and policymakers better understand...

Two decades of data show that climate change is transforming Biscayne Bay to be warmer, saltier and more acidic

Two decades of data show that climate change is transforming Biscayne Bay to be warmer, saltier and more acidic Stephanie Baum Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Climate change and sea level rise are altering the chemistry of Biscayne Bay in ways that could threaten South Florida's coastal ecosystems, water resources, fisheries, and recreation, according to a study led by scientists from the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science and...

The ocean's health may depend on a tiny microbe inside fish

The ocean's health may depend on a tiny microbe inside fish A hidden alliance between fish and gut bacteria may be quietly helping regulate the oceans—and even the global carbon cycle. - Date: - May 31, 2026 - Source: - University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science - Summary: - A surprising new discovery suggests that tiny microbes living inside fish may be helping shape the chemistry of the world’s oceans. Scientists found evidence that bacteria in the guts...

Space station dust maps slash climate uncertainty over iron-rich particles

Space station dust maps slash climate uncertainty over iron-rich particles Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor New research from a team of scientists led by Cornell is transforming how researchers understand one of the atmosphere's most abundant and least understood constituents: mineral dust. Mineral dust, composed of tiny particles lifted from arid regions including the Sahara, Middle East and East Asia, plays a complex role in Earth's climate system. These particles...

Mount Etna eruptions reveal carbon dioxide and water can trigger separate explosive paths

Mount Etna eruptions reveal carbon dioxide and water can trigger separate explosive paths Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor The plumbing systems of volcanoes are vast and complex. But they aren't consistent, even in the same volcano. A Cornell-led collaboration found very different mechanisms behind two historic eruptions of Mount Etna in Italy.

Counterintuitive Magnetic Connectivity and Energetic Particle Flux Differences among Nearby Spacecraft During the 2023 February 24 Solar Energetic Particle Event

arXiv:2606.02445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For solar energetic particles (SEPs), it is generally expected that observers magnetically closer to the eruption source region exhibit higher particle intensities than those poorly connected to the eruption site. However, the 2023 February 24 SEP event departs from this simple picture: Earth and STA, near 1 au, are nominally better connected to the source region, whereas Solar Orbiter (SolO), at 0.77 au but less favorably connected, observed...

A century of sun records reveals clues to its 11-year rhythm

More than a century of observations from India’s historic Kodaikanal Solar Observatory, operated by the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), Bengaluru, has helped scientists uncover new clues about how the Sun’s surface responds to its 11-year activity cycle. The findings, based on an analysis of 34,000 images collected since 1907, could improve understanding of the processes that drive solar activity and eventually aid efforts to predict changes that affect the space environment around...

Laser 'origami' could help astronauts build structures on the moon

Laser 'origami' could help astronauts build structures on the moon Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor University of Florida researchers are exploring how lasers could help astronauts build structures on the moon using materials already available there, including lunar soil transformed into glass. The work, led by Victoria M. Miller, Ph.D., an associate professor in the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering and researcher with the UF Astraeus Space Institute, recently...

First-of-its-kind AI tool for translating life-saving weather warnings across the US advanced

First-of-its-kind AI tool for translating life-saving weather warnings across the US advanced Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor Nearly 69 million people in the United States speak a language other than English at home, yet weather warnings have long been issued almost exclusively in English. A new study documents how the National Weather Service is using artificial intelligence to change that, developing a comprehensive translation program that delivers life-saving...

Wildfires reverse decade of ozone cleanup in the United States, study reveals

Wildfires reverse decade of ozone cleanup in the United States, study reveals Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Ozone pollution has worsened in much of the continental United States over the past decade, fueled by wildfires and the long-distance transport of unhealthy air, according to a new study titled "Fires reverse progress toward ozone air quality standards in the U.S.," led by University of Iowa researchers and published in the journal Science. Exposure to...
