Human-induced changes in the distribution of rainfall - Science
A likely consequence of global warming will be the redistribution of Earth's rain belts, affecting water availability for many of Earth's inhabitants.
Ocean system that moves heat gets closer to collapse, study says
An abrupt shutdown of Atlantic Ocean currents that could put large parts of Europe in a deep freeze is looking a bit more likely.
Ocean current system could shut down as early as 2025, leading to ...
Such a collapse would prove catastrophic for Earth's climate. The system, known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) had ...
