A research team Carnegie’s Department of Global Ecology has recently performed a study that proves the impact that evaporation of water from trees and lakes has on the global climate.The fact that the Earth is getting warmer and warmer each decade is no news for us. This mostly happens as a result of the emissi... |

A collaboration of paleontologists from the University of California in Berkeley (UCB) and the Smithsonian Institution determined that gray whales were able to survive past cycles of global warming and cooling by adopting a more varied diet. When their very survival hung in the balance, the marine animals turned to e... |

Contrary to some reports currently making the rounds in the media, a reduced level of solar activity will not produce global cooling. Researchers say that the number of sunspots on the star has little to do with the mean global temperatures here on Earth.Some began peddling this idea when solar physicists recently an... |

The 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano and the 2011 eruption of the Grímsvötn Volcano both spread massive ash plumes in the air, forcing flights and passengers to remain grounded. But these events were just a “taste” of the eruptions that lie in store for out planet. This concl... |

A team of researchers from Ohio State University is analyzing the remains of the northernmost mummified forest ever found in Canada, in order to see the way that the plants coped with global cooling a few million years ago, and maybe guess nature's behavior during the current global warming.The leader of the tea... |

Starting some 300,000 years ago, Neanderthals began ruling the steppes and lands of Eurasia with an iron fist, and it appeared as if nothing could challenge their rule. But, some 40,000 years ago, the unexpected happened – populations dropped to extinction. Experts now think they know why.The reason why these ... |

Geologists at the University of Maryland may have just made one of the most important discoveries to explain the ancient history of our planet, namely what it was that triggered one of the earliest Ice Ages in history. A new scientific research seems to point at the fact that the appearance of oxygen, synthesized by... |

According to climate change models covering the Ancient history of the Earth, the Antarctic became covered with the ice sheets it's losing today some 33.5 million years ago, when the overall climate cooled significantly and the planet got converted from a greenhouse to an “ice house.” In the February... |
