Rising sea levels are slowing Earth’s rotation, lengthening how long an average day lasts. Incredibly, climate change is ...

Climate change is lengthening our days because rising sea levels slow Earth's rotation. Researchers from the University of Vienna and ETH Zurich now show that the current increase in day length—1.33 ...

Researchers found the first statistically significant evidence that global warming is accelerating. It's been topic of ...

A seemingly small planetary neighbor may play a larger role in Earth’s climate than previously thought. Mars is only about ...

A new study co-led by the Smithsonian and the University of Arizona offers the most detailed glimpse yet of how Earth's surface temperature has changed over the past 485 million years. In a paper ...

A 60-million year old fossil palm leaf from Alaska. A new study by researchers including Isabel Montañez at UC Davis has produced the most accurate chart to date of how Earth's temperature has changed ...

Global warming may be speeding up, with temperatures rising faster since 2015 and recent record-hot years reflecting a steeper climate trend.

Rising sea levels caused by melting glaciers and polar ice sheets are slowing Earth's rotation, adding approximately 1.33 ...
