A collection of ScienceBrief Reviews has been published as a single volume.
Read moreA collection of ScienceBrief Reviews has been published as a single volume.
Read moreThree ScienceBrief Reviews published 28 October 2021, reinforce the urgent need for global action to reduce the impact of climate change on vital carbon sinks, our oceans and the Arctic.
Read moreA simple description of atmospheric processes that contribute to the development of heatwaves and extreme temperatures.
Read moreThe ScienceBrief on marine heatwaves shows increasingly widespread and intense events occurring throughout the oceans, due to human-caused climate change.
Read morePublication of the ScienceBrief Review: Climate change increases extreme rainfall and the chance of floods.
Read moreThe ScienceBrief Review, ‘Climate change is probably increasing the intensity of tropical cyclones’, is published today as part of a collection on critical issues in climate change science to inform the COP26 climate conference.
Read moreClimate change is probably fuelling more powerful tropical cyclones (also called hurricanes), while flooding by tropical cyclones is amplified by rising sea level.
Read moreEvidence suggests that independent expert advisory bodies are emerging as strong assets that can help governments raise ambition and deliver climate objectives in practice.
Read moreThe ScienceBrief on climate change and cyclones has been published on ScienceBrief.org
Read moreStrengthened evidence that climate change increases the frequency and/or severity of fire weather around the world. Land management alone cannot explain recent increases in wildfires because increased fire weather from climate change amplifies fire risk where fuels remain available.
Read moreThe ScienceBrief on extreme rainfall and flooding is now published on ScienceBrief.org
Read moreThe ScienceBrief on Arctic amplification is now published on ScienceBrief.org
Read moreThe ScienceBrief on Heatwaves and extreme temperatures is now published on ScienceBrief.org
Read moreFirst online meetings of the ScienceBrief topic 'Critical Issues in Climate Change Science' Advisory Board and Editorial Board, help to plan new and upcoming content.
Read moreHuman-induced climate change promotes the conditions on which wildfires depend, enhancing their likelihood and challenging suppression efforts. Human-induced warming has already led to a global increase in the frequency and severity of fire weather, increasing the risks of wildfire.
