El Niño’s potential 2026 return raises risk of new global heat records

The El Niño climate pattern could reappear in the second half of 2026, adding extra heat on top of an already warming planet and increasing the chance of new global temperature records. The phenomenon develops when surface waters in the central and eastern tropical Pacific turn unusually warm,......

Invasive species, drought, and climate shocks put global water security at risk

A growing convergence of invasive species, protracted drought, and intensifying climate extremes is placing critical water and food systems in India, Türkiye, and the United States under mounting strain, according to researchers and officials. From parched lakes in southern India to collapsing aquifers......

Study finds fire weather days nearly tripled worldwide in 45 years

The number of days marked by hot, dry and windy conditions that fuel extreme wildfires has nearly tripled globally over the past 45 years, with researchers concluding that human driven climate change accounts for more than half of the increase. A study published Wednesday in Science Advances reports......

Climate change adds 47 harmful heat days to coffee regions

Rising temperatures and increasingly extreme weather linked to climate change are posing growing risks to global coffee and wheat production, according to two new studies published this week, with potential consequences for farmers and consumers alike. An analysis released Wednesday by Climate Central......

Wildfires force evacuations in Woodward as flames threaten homes

A rapidly advancing wildfire pushed residents from their homes in and around Woodward, Oklahoma, as dry vegetation and strong winds fueled flames toward residential areas and key facilities. Authorities issued urgent evacuation guidance for parts of the city’s southwest, advising people living......

Cornell study maps global crop emissions at 10 kilometer scale

Researchers have produced the most detailed global map to date of greenhouse gas emissions from croplands, finding that just four crops account for nearly three quarters of total agricultural emissions. Rice alone is responsible for 43 percent, according to the study. The research, published on February......

Russian Arctic resort becomes hub for sanctioned LNG tankers

Polar vortex collapse set to push Arctic air into the United States and Europe

A prolonged cold spell gripping the eastern United States has been linked by leading scientists to the same human driven climate change that is rapidly eroding Arctic ice. Researchers warn that without substantial cuts in greenhouse gas emissions, such extreme winter events are likely to grow more frequent......

Rare polar vortex collapse triggers prolonged Arctic cold across US and Europe

A historically rare disruption of the polar vortex, which began late November, continues to unleash unpredictable winter weather across North America and Europe. Meteorologists warn that February 2026 will bring ongoing waves of Arctic air interspersed with brief thaws. This high-altitude weather system,......

US-UK team develops real-time Arctic sea ice forecast model

A team of American and British scientists has created a new method for real-time, accurate predictions of Arctic sea ice extent. This tool proves vital for climate monitoring and indigenous communities relying on stable ice for hunting and livelihoods. Published February 3 in the journal Chaos by AIP......
