Scientists have detected a 30% slowdown of the deep ocean currents that form in Antarctica, with profound consequences for Earth’s climate, sea level and marine life.

Quantum machine learning models could help us create AI systems that are almost impenetrable by hackers. But in the hands of hackers, the same technology could wreak havoc.
Knowing where a weed has come from can improve its management, but this quest can be challenging. CSIRO detective work revealed an unusual pathway for the introduction of South African bitou bush.
The research help us understand how El Niño and La Niña will change as the world warms in the future.
Dubbed the ‘godfather of AI’, Hinton’s early work helped pioneer many of the methods underlying the AI systems we see today.
Here’s why economists aren’t sure about humanity’s place in an automated future.
Extreme weather events are complex – and working out exactly how much damage climate change caused is a tricky task.
Solar thermal technology has the potential to provide both long-duration storage and industrial heat, yet it has been largely overlooked in the Australian context. That is about to change.
In a plot reminiscent of the 2004 movie The Day After Tomorrow?, Australian scientists are warning that the Southern Ocean’s deep “overturning” circulation is slowing and headed for collapse.
Not all La Niñas are wet, nor El Niños dry – especially if you live in Sydney. So here’s how to interpret what an El Niño forecast means for you.
After three long years of rainy weather, La Niña is over. But that doesn’t mean El Niño is a certainty. Here’s why.
Macquarie Island isn’t just a windswept rock halfway to Antarctica. It’s a globally unique home to dozens of bird and marine mammal species, hence the government’s plans to give it greater protection.
The largest birds that ever lived on Earth, elephant birds have a spotty fossil record. But understanding them could help protect Madagascar’s biodiversity.
Superbugs like it hot and wet, so climate change presents a major challenge for healthcare and agriculture, says a new report from CSIRO and the ATSE.
A new process to quickly remove radioactive chemicals from water and other liquids and trap them in a clay-like substance could make nuclear waste management much easier.
Mountaineer and scientist Will Steffen said climbing was similar to science: “That’s the buzz you get in science when you solve a big problem and suddenly see how it all fits together”
The species at risk include flowering plants, moss and lichens, tough invertebrates and breeding seabirds.
Aux niveaux actuels d'émissions, il y a 50 % de chances que la planète atteigne la hausse de température moyenne mondiale de 1,5 ℃ dans les 9 ans à venir.
Pada tingkat emisi saat ini, ada 50% kemungkinan bumi akan mencapai kenaikan suhu rata-rata global 1,5℃ hanya dalam sembilan tahun.
The findings have big implications for how Australians prepare for extreme weather events.
