New Study Highlights The ‘Dominant Role’ Of Aerosol/Cloud Interactions In Shaping Climate

Radiative forcing imbalances are predominantly elicited by anomalies and trends in surface solar radiation, which is modulated by aerosol and cloud albedo. New research indicates t...

Another New Study Links Modern And Past Global Warming To Natural Changes In Cloud Clover, Not CO2

Cloud cover changes are a “top-down dynamical driver” of Earth’s climate. A July 2026 Environmental Research Letters paper authored by Bellocchi et al. attributes ~80% of the rise...

Uncertainty In Estimating Solar Forcing Across The Arctic Is 100-350x Larger Than CO2’s Alleged Climate Impact

In new research (Liu et al., 2026), scientists acknowledge clouds “markedly impact near-surface air temperatures” by altering the radiation budget and driving heating rates across...

Cloudy skies have slowed global warming – but that may be changing

Low cloud cover has been expanding since 1979, reflecting more sunlight into space, but scientists expect that trend to reverse and accelerate global warming

Another New Study Links Modern and Past Global Warming to Natural Changes in Cloud Clover, Not CO2

The study highlights the climate’s “albedo governance,” suggesting a 1% shift in Earth’s albedo corresponds to a 1°C surface temperature change. The post Another New Study Links Mo...

The Effect of Clouds on Wind Farms

Author(s): David EhrensteinSimulations suggest that clouds can reduce the length of a wind farm’s slow-air wake, potentially increasing power production of neighboring wind farms.[...

AI as a Quantitative Predictor of the Future: Climate Change

AI climate change predictions by Gemini I am back to AI as a quantitative predictor (June 26, 2026 blog). I interrupted my discussion of the topic to describe events connected to I...

Climate Trunk - Science

In April 2026 we published a guest blog post by John Lang in which he introduced his "Climate Trunk" graphics project and website. Since then, he has been adding one graphic per we...

Climate change

This fast-growing field is helping scientists pinpoint climate change’s impact on weather events

When a devastating heat wave, hurricane, flood or wildfire strikes, people often want to know: How much did human-caused climate change influence this event, if at all? For many...

Scientists discover a natural Arctic cloud factory missing from climate models

A newly discovered Arctic process can dramatically boost the number of particles that help form clouds. Near melting sea ice, sunlight reacts with chemicals released by the ocean,...

Under the Mediterranean sun: The thousand year tale of changing skies

When you picture the western Mediterranean, you likely imagine sun-drenched beaches, terracotta roofs, and bright blue skies. But has it always been this sunny? A groundbreaking st...

Melting Sea Ice Could Be Changing the Clouds Above the Arctic

As Arctic sea ice melts away, it may be doing more than exposing open ocean. Scientists have found that the retreating ice could also help create many of the tiny particles needed...

Uncertainty In Estimating Solar Forcing Across The Arctic Is 100-350x Larger Than CO2’s Alleged Climate Impact

The 20-70 W/m² uncertainty in estimating the Arctic’s surface solar radiation is 100 to 350 times larger than 10 years of accumulated clear-sky-only CO2 impacts (0.2 W/m² per Feldm...

Skeptical Science New Research for Week #31 2026

Open access notables Observed Multi-Decadal Acceleration of Globally Averaged Abyssal Ocean Warming, Johnson, Geophysical Research Letters Given sparse historical data in the dee...

Shifting plant investment strategies along climatic gradients drive ecosystem carbon cycling in alpine grasslands

Inge Althuizen, Norwegian Research Center AS (NORCE), discusses her article: Climate-induced shifts in plant investment strategies regulate ecosystem carbon cycling across alpine g...

Modernizing the skies: NOAA and Google Cloud collaborate to advance weather forecasting

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is embarking on a transformative journey to redefine how we understand and predict patterns in the Earth’s atmosphere tha...

Scientists Ponder a New Climate Defense Tactic: Throwing Shade at El Niño

This story was originally published by Wired and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. This year’s El Niño is shaping up to be among the strongest on record...

How long does an ecosystem remember the weather?

“Plants carry traces of past weather. Reading them may help us navigate a hotter, drier world.”  Wenli Zhao As global warming intensifies drought frequency, understanding how ecosy...

New Study: NASA’s Models Wildly Underestimate The Capacity Of Clouds To Alter Solar Radiation

Today’s climate models are so inaccurate they must be improved a hundredfold just to detect a CO2 signal in climate change. The post New Study: NASA’s Models Wildly Underestimate T...

Weather weapons: why the atmosphere could become the next geopolitical battleground

When devastating floods swept through Assam in northeastern India in 2018, the disaster quickly triggered a troubling question within New Delhi’s security corridors. As technology...

AI as a Planner: Attributions and Anthropogenic Climate Change

In last week’s blog, I started demonstrating the power of AI to predict aspects of the future by having it analyze the future of climate change. My focus was not to demonstrate the...

Scientists seeded clouds over China’s Muz Taw Glacier; fresh snow cut ice loss by 14% to 17%

Scientists tested cloud seeding over China’s Muz Taw Glacier in 2018 to create artificial snowfall and slow ice loss. The experiment used silver iodide generators to encourage snow...
