13.10.2011 Redrawing the Arctic map: The new north
The Arctic covers around 5% of the planet's surface, but it is capturing a disproportionate amount of attention. With temperatures rising at twice the global rate, the region's summer sea ice is shrinking rapidly, making access easier than ever before. At the same time, countries are racing to claim parts of the Arctic's sea floor and the vast deposits of hydrocarbons that lie beneath it

15.09.2011 Science enters desert debate
A desert may need no defining, but desertification is not so easy to pin down. Although the loss of soil nutrients and moisture threatens roughly a third of the world's land area, imperilling farming and biodiversity, scientists lack a clear definition of it or agreed standards to measure its causes and progression

15.12.2010 NASA: 2010 Meteorological Year Warmest Ever
The 2010 meteorological year, which ended on 30 November, was the warmest in NASA's 130-year record. The main driver for the increased warmth was the Arctic, where sea ice was absent during months when it should have normally covered the water. Water devoid of ice absorbs much more solar radiation.

22.11.2010 Caribbean Coral Die-off Worries Scientists
Unusually warm ocean temperatures in the summer and fall of 2005 caused a mass die-off of Caribbean corals that is the worst ever recorded there, according to new research published yesterday in the online journal PLoS ONE. Such events are also likely to become more common as global warming continues, concludes a team of 65 authors in 22 countries.

09.09.2010 Tiny 'Flying Saucers' Could Save Earth From Global Warming
Using a trick of sunlight itself, tiny metallic disks could be levitated to the stratosphere where they would shade Earth's surface and counteract the effects of global warming, a new paper proposes. But even the scientist who dreamed up the idea says the little saucers should be used only as a last resort.
