Ocean warming drove 10% rise in 'extreme' rainfall from Atlantic hurricanes in 2020
Extreme rainfall during the record-breaking Atlantic hurricane season in 2020 was made more intense by human-caused climate change, a new study says.

Adopting a more plant-based diet could give rich countries a “double climate dividend” of lower emissions and more land for capturing carbon, a new study says.
Arctic sea ice has reached its annual minimum for 2021, clocking in at the 12th lowest on record, according to provisional data from the NSIDC.
Climate change is reducing the supply of water from melting snow to many of the largest rivers in Asia - by 16% across the region in the past 40 years.
Clouds could have a greater cooling effect on the planet than climate models currently suggest, due to previous underestimation, according to new research.
Research shows that evotranspiration - the transfer of water from ground to air - increased globally by 10% between 2003 and 2019, due to climate change.
A study has found an increase in the rate of melting glaciers over the past 20 years with annual rates of glacier thinning 'nearly doubling' from 2000-2019
Scientists expect that the average seasonal lake stratification could last almost two weeks longer by the end of the century due to climate change effects.
New research has shown that plants and animals that only live in one region - known as 'endemic species' - will face more adverse impact of climate change.
Arctic sea ice has reached its maximum extent for the year. Here scientists explain what that means and put this year's figure in context.
A new study published in Nature, has found that lake heatwaves could become up to 12 times longer by the end of the century, and up to 1.7C hotter.
A new study published in Nature Communications, shows that Greenland’s ice sheet could melt faster than previously thought over the 21st century.
Melting ice and ocean warming has caused sea levels to rise by around 20cm over the 20th century. But scientists have just discovered sea levels started rising in the 1960s, not the 1990s.
