Published in Nature Climate Change, a new study finds that rainfall variations associated with the global climate phenomenon El Niño are likely to become more frequent in the next 20 […]
New computer model simulations identify widespread changes in climate variability under sustained anthropogenic forcing There is growing public awareness that climate change will impact society not only through changes in […]
Highest resolution global warming simulation conducted to date reveals possible end of El Niño/ La Niña temperature cycle The cycling between warm El Niño and cold La Niña conditions in […]
A new study identifies key linkages between rainfall occurring in the tropics and climate trends in Antarctica Our planet is warming due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions; but the warming […]
Ocean warming predicted to cause a twofold increase in amplitude of rainfall fluctuations over the tropical Pacific The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the most energetic naturally occurring year-to-year variation […]
A study based on new high-resolution supercomputer simulations, published in this week’s issue of the journal Science Advances, reveals that global warming will intensify landfalling tropical cyclones of category 3 […]
Over the past three months South Korea has experienced one of its most unusual East Asian summer monsoon (Changma) seasons since 1973. Torrential rains wreaked havoc across the country, causing […]
In response to future fossil fuel burning, climate computer models simulate a pronounced warming in the tropicaloceans. This warming can influence the El Niño phenomenon and shift weather and rainfall patterns across […]
New research, published in the journal Science Advances, has found that unusual ocean temperatures in the tropical Pacific and Atlantic can drastically increase April tornado occurrences over the Great Plains […]
A new study, published this week in the journal Nature Climate Change, shows that the recent intensification of the equatorial Pacific wind system, known as Walker Circulation, is unrelated to human […]
