Water is made of hydrogen and oxygen, and sometimes these atoms are slightly heavier than usual. These heavier forms are ...

Models, by definition, are approximations: useful, informative, and inevitably incomplete, because they are the only way to ...

Tiny marine plankton that build calcium carbonate shells play an outsized role in regulating Earth’s climate, quietly pulling carbon from the atmosphere and helping lock it away in the deep ocean. New ...

The fight against climate change is ongoing, and while we're still a long way from finding an actually sustainable solution, researchers at Yale say that imperfect climate models may actually be far ...

Developed by a team led by Daniel Klocke at the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology in Germany, the model reaches a spatial resolution of 1.25 kilometers -- a level many atmospheric scientists have ...

Uncertainty in climate models could mean Earth systems are perilously close to their tipping points, scientists warn.

Climate models have been the basis for concern about climate change for more than 35 years. The US government, the United Nations, and organizations across the world have used model projections to ...

The report warns many economic models are failing to capture extreme weather events and rising uncertainty likely to dominate ...

New research reveals the source of this carbon – and the driving forces behind it – are far more complex than previously ...
