Carbon dioxide levels in Earth’s atmosphere — and, consequently, ocean temperatures — are rising. How high and how fast ocean temperatures can rise can be learned from temperature measurements of ...

Reliable predictions of how the Earth's climate will respond as atmospheric carbon dioxide levels increase are based on ...

Oxygen isotopes data enable researchers to look far back into the geologic past and reconstruct the climate of the past. In doing so, they consider several factors such as ocean temperature and ice ...

Methane, both a vital energy resource and a potent greenhouse gas, is produced and modified by a number of geological and biological processes. Recent advances in isotopic characterisation have ...

For their study, Dr. Luz María Mejía, now at MARUM – Center for Marine Environmental Sciences at the University of Bremen, and her colleagues focused ...

Cave geochemistry has emerged as an essential tool in reconstructing past climate, utilising the naturally occurring archives preserved in speleothems. These secondary mineral deposits, formed via the ...
