Yes, dinosaurs really did survive in snow – we simulated the Cretaceous climate to prove it.

Research shows large-scale reliance on carbon capture risks postponing climate action too far into the future.
If fossil fuel burning stopped, emerging research suggests air temperatures could level off sooner than expected. But that doesn’t mean the damage stops.
Sting jets are poorly understood, but could have a big influence on Britain’s future winter storms.
Weather forecasting is complex and challenging. The process entails three steps: observation, analysis and communication.
Climate models from the 1970s and 80s stand up incredibly well when compared with actual warming trends.
Climate models can’t see tornadoes, but they can recognize the conditions for tornadoes to form. An atmospheric scientist explains what that means for forecasting future risks.
New climate simulations show that there will be more rain and less snow falling in the Arctic by the end of the century, particularly in the fall and winter.
We need new experiments to model Earth’s climate if global warming is stabilised at 1.5°C. A new paper explains why.
Tea growers in Malawi and Kenya wanted site-specific climate information to help them manage and plan their farming practices to maximise yield and quality.
Is Dune scientifically plausible? We ran a climate model to find out.
A 1967 study by Nobel-winner Syukuro Manabe changed climate science forever
A new analysis, using 15 years of autonomous underwater measurements and simulations from the latest global climate models, refined our estimate of future ocean warming and sea level rise.
The amount of climate data available to us is growing exponentially, and is far too much to sort through ourselves. But machines can do this for us.
An article in the eminent US magazine Science has triggered debate over whether scientists should use climate models. Here’s what you should know about climate models ahead of today’s IPCC report.
The latest report on climate science comes on the heels of heatwaves, wildfires, flooding and storms. It will help policy-makers act on plans to curb emissions or adapt to climate change.
The growing frequency of climate extremes affected human health and caused wide-scale damages to the ecosystems that people depend upon, including agriculture, fisheries and freshwater.
Scientists used artificial neural networks to analyze precipitation records. They found evidence of human activities influencing extreme rainfall or snowfall around the world.
Clouds can act as both blanket and parasol – warming our atmosphere at the same time as cooling it. But which effect will dominate?
Climate models have been overestimating how much sunlight hits the Southern Ocean. This is because the clouds there are different from clouds anywhere else. Bacterial DNA helped us understand why.
