Methane emissions from wetlands are rising faster than those from industrial sources, prompting concerns about a climate feedback loop.

Key climate tipping points may be closer than expected, raising the risk of accelerating warming, sea-level rise, and ...

Sharp changes could result in a cascade of subsystem interactions that would steer the planet toward extreme warming and sea level rise. View on euronews ...

Scientists say Earth is shifting from a merely warm planet toward what some describe as a “Hothouse” state, driven not just by smokestacks and tailpipes but by quieter feedbacks and thresholds. I see ...

Scientists say multiple Earth system components appear closer to destabilization than previously believed, putting the planet ...

Risky feedback loops that are accelerating global climate change may not be fully accounted for in current climate models, according to a recent study published in the scientific journal One Earth. A ...

Researchers have discovered dozens of new methane seeps littering the ocean floor in the Ross Sea coastal region of Antarctica, raising concerns of an unknown positive climate feedback loop that could ...

Fool's gold may be driving a disturbing climate feedback loop in the Canadian Arctic. Erosion of rocks like pyrite, or fool's gold, releases carbon dioxide. And thanks to that weathering, CO2 ...

New research spotlights the challenge of growing food on a warming planet. Two recent studies — one historical and the other forward-looking — examine how rising temperatures have made and could ...

Scientists say that multiple Earth system components appear closer to destabilization than previously believed, putting the planet in increased danger of following a "hothouse" path driven by feedback ...

A potent greenhouse gas has begun seeping out of the Antarctic seafloor in dozens of places, scientists have discovered. Researchers documented the emergence of these methane seeps in shallow regions ...
