Saline levels in the Southern Ocean are dropping, but scientists finally think they know why.
Global warming is still a fear that will cause mass extinction as a study shows that it destroyed the world 252 million years ago.
A new study revealed that the methane emissions from the thawing permafrost is much lower than originally thought.
A new study revealed that climate change is occuring long before man shoot carbon emission in the atmosphere.
A recent study has revealed that migratory birds could lose their breeding habitat in the Arctic region by 2070 if global warming continues.
A new study has confirmed that the vegetation in the Arctic is turning green due to global warming and human activities.
2015 in northwest Greenland, recent studies show the very first evidence linking the melting in Greenland to the expected effects and the confirmation of the phenomenon called the Arctic amplification
A new type of bear has emerged in the Arctic because of climate change, researchers say.
Conservationist Sacha Dench will undertake a 4,500-mile flight with migrating Bewick's swans in September to find out why their numbers have been plummeting in the past two decades.
In an important campaign to bring in more research money for the unique population of belugas in the St. Lawrence, whose waters are downstream from the industrialized Great Lakes, sponsors are being found as part of the opportunity to "Adopt a Beluga." Wouldn't you like a blubbery, chirpy small whale?
Polar bears are spending more time inland as sea ice retreats in the Arctic. To reduce human-bear conflict, polar bear patrols have been set up to keep the animals away from people and homes.
Fossils of a giant, flightless bird have finally been analyzed, and confirm a prehistoric species known as Gastornis roamed the Arctic 53 million years ago. While the climate was much different then, scientists warn that climate change could one day invite more diverse species to the North.
In the dark polar night, when the moon appears over the horizon, things happen. That is, the huge mass of tiny marine life, or zooplankton, take on a migration in order not to be viewed by their light-seeing predators.
Darkness blankets the icy north in the winter, but tiny Arctic marine creatures are guided by the light of the moon. Researchers say the creatures' regular vertical migrations could help store more carbon deep in the ocean.
