Global warming is flooding low-lying coastal regions, but it’s drying out the land beyond. The most serious consequences of ...
Experts analyze climate models and satellite data to find the link between increasing arid soil and Earth's rotation.
According to a report in Science, researchers have determined that water on land, which includes soil moisture levels, underground aquifers, lakes, rivers and other water-holding surfaces, has been ...
The study, published in March in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, says the dramatic ice melt would redistribute the ...
For decades, scientists believed Vesta, one of the largest objects in our solar system's asteroid belt, wasn't just an ...
As ice sheets melt and ocean mass gets redistributed around the planet, Earth's geographic North and South poles could shift up to 89 feet (27 meters) by 2100 as the planet's axis of rotation ...
This, in turn, changes the Earth’s axis of rotation. The researchers studied data from 1900 to 2018 and used simulations to model how the melting of ice sheets and glaciers will affect Earth’s ...
Rising global temperatures are driving the sharp decline in terrestrial water storage. This trend isn’t likely to change, scientists say.
Earth’s rotation feels steady, but beneath that illusion of constancy lies a subtle truth: the planet’s spin is shifting. The axis around which Earth rotates isn’t fixed. It wanders, sways, and drifts ...
