Plants in swamps and marshes have been observed actively altering their environment to increase their species’ chance of…
The biodiversity of Arctic and Antarctic regions is being affected in different ways by global warming, new research shows…
Black carbon is nearly three times more important in climate change than previously thought, research led by the University…
An extreme ocean heatwave in 2010-11 caused important habitat-forming seaweed to retract its range by 100km off the Western…
Monthly temperature extremes have become much more frequent, measurements from around the world indicate. On average, there…
Corals have genetic resistance to warming oceans, research from Stanford University has found. The study provides hope for…
A comparison of the current warming climate and the last major episode of global warming has led to scientific concern about…
In 2008, I and my colleagues published a study which appeared to confirm that current global warming could cause large losses of species and a loss of biodiversity. Four years later and a new approach…
Many species of the fruit fly are unable to adapt to predicted increases in global temperatures and may face extinction…
In January 2012, the US Department of Agriculture released the “Plant Hardiness Zone Map”. Planting guidelines were provided…
I sometimes wonder what planet this country of ours is on. The environmental debate we are having seems to be in a parallel universe to the rest of the world. Having spent the last four years running one…
Over the past several decades, scientists have studied the climate of the world and how that is changing. These studies have built on the recognition, made over 150 years ago by John Tindall, that certain…
A study of tree-ring data recently found that in some regions temperatures during Roman times (21AD to 50AD) were 1.05 degrees Celsius higher than the 1951-1980 mean. The paper’s lead author, Professor…
The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency’s 2012 report, indicates that global CO₂ emissions increased by 3% in 2011…
Severe droughts, floods and landslides devastated parts of the world last year as carbon dioxide concentrations climbed to the highest levels in recorded history, according to a global report on climate…
Climate change is causing the leaves of at least one subspecies of Australian plant to narrow in size, a team from the University of Adelaide has found. Their study shows that the leaves of the Narrow-leaf…
Melting glaciers and ice sheets have contributed more to rising sea levels in the past decade than expansion from warming water, according to modelling in the latest report by the Antarctic Climate and…
We price carbon. This is nothing new. The first time this explicitly happened, Vanilla Ice hit number one in Australia, and Bryan Adams was topping the global charts with “(Everything I do) I do it for…
You’ll doubtless have heard Australia is introducing a “carbon tax” this Sunday to reduce “carbon pollution”. What is being controlled is not just any carbon but emissions of a specific gas, carbon dioxide…
