Climate whiplash effects due to rapidly intensifying El Niño cycles
A new study published in the journal Nature Communications reveals that the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), a key driver of global climate variability, is projected to undergo a dramatic transformation […]
Running Dry – a new study warns of extreme water scarcity in the coming decades
A new study published in the journal Nature Communications by researchers from the IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP) at Pusan National University in the Republic of Korea reveals that […]
Models show intensifying wildfires in a warming world due to changes in vegetation and humidity; only a minor role for lightning
Extreme fire seasons in recent years highlight the urgent need to better understand wildfires within the broader context of climate change. Under climate change, many drivers of wildfires are expected […]
Scientists simulate asteroid collision effects on climate and plants
A new climate modeling study published in the journal Science Advances by researchers from the IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP) at Pusan National University in South Korea presents a new scenario […]
Synchrotron radiation sheds new light on the evolution of human childhood
Early hominins may have had a combination of ape-like early maturity and human-like delayed development, according to an analysis of 1.77-million-year-old fossilized hominin teeth from Dmanisi, Georgia, published in Nature. […]
Early Human species benefited from food diversity in steep mountainous terrain
A new study published in the journal Science Advances [1] by researchers at the IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP) at Pusan National University in South Korea shows that the patchwork […]
Abrupt intensification of northern wildfires due to future permafrost thawing
A study, published in the journal Nature Communications by an international team of climate scientists and permafrost experts shows that, according to new climate computer model simulations, global warming will […]
Unprecedented Warming Threatens Earth’s Lakes and their Ecosystems
Lakes, with their rich biodiversity and important ecological services, face a concerning trend: rapidly increasing temperatures. A recent study published in Nature Geoscience by an international team of limnologists and climate modelers […]
2023 – a year to be remembered
Allow me to take you on a little walk down memory lane. 2023 was, from a climate scientist’s perspective, an extremely unusual and surprising year: it will be remembered by […]
