Customized assistance helped Brazilian cattle ranchers sustainably increase their cattle production while keeping carbon in the ground, according to a new study.
Fires have gotten larger, more frequent and more widespread across the United States since 2000, according to a new ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder-led paper published in Science Advances.
A new tool developed by ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder researchers could lead to more efficient and cheaper technologies for capturing heat-trapping gases from the atmosphere and converting them into beneficial substances, like fuel or building materials.
The war in Ukraine has caused oil prices to surge to the highest level since 2008. Jeffrey Logan of the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute addresses what the current oil and gas crisis means for the future of renewable energy.
Forest fires can have a significant effect on the amount of water flowing in nearby rivers and streams, and the impact can continue even years after the smoke clears. Now, with the number of forest fires on the rise in the western U.S., that phenomenon is increasingly influencing the region’s water supply—and has increased the risk for floods and landslides.
Warmer, drier nights can no longer dampen wildfires’ flames. Nighttime fires have become more intense in recent decades, as hot, dry nights are more commonplace, according to a new CIRES Earth Lab study.
Just after first responders extinguished the flames of the Marshall Fire, a team of engineers from across the country hit the ground in an urgent effort: to collect data on the disaster before it disappears for good.
A new study suggests some cautiously optimistic good news: the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement goal is still within reach, while apocalyptic, worst-case scenarios are no longer plausible.
Two years ago, hundreds of international scientists set off on the one-year MOSAiC expedition, collecting unprecedented environmental datasets over a full annual cycle in the central Arctic Ocean. Now, the team has published three overview articles.
Outdoor events at the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing will rely almost entirely on artificial snow. Learn from an expert about the science of human-made snow, its use at the Olympics and how climate change may impact the future of snow sports.
