Clouds are reflecting less sunlight, trapping heat, and rapidly accelerating global warming beyond predictions.

Hurricanes move massive amounts of sediment from shallow reefs to deep oceans, affecting ecosystems long-term.

Published 6 February 2025 in Communications Earth and Environment, the study shows how Enceladus's ocean forms distinct layers that dramatically slow the movement of material from the ocean floor ...
