The jet stream—a powerful river of wind high in the atmosphere—shapes the Northern Hemisphere’s weather, including bitter cold snaps. Because it plays a key role in weather extremes, climate scientists are striving to understand […]

Natural islands have always been escape destinations from the concrete jungle chaos and pollution. Now think again, think unnatural islands, think strewn litter over the ocean, which eventually accumulate

A new study published in the journal Science Advances has found that climate change is causing the troposphere – the Earth’s lower part of the atmosphere – to gradually expand. While between 1980 and 2020, the troposphere expanded by roughly 164 feet per decade, this rate increased between 2001 and 2020 to about 174 feet per decade. #earth #planetearth #earth'satmosphere #climatechange #climatecrisis #globalwarming #climatechangeandearth'satmosphere #scienceadvances #troposphere #pollution
