Clearing tropical rainforests distorts Earth's wind & water systems, packs climate wallop
2014-12-18 23:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: A new study released today presents powerful evidence that clearing trees not only spews carbon into the atmosphere, but also triggers major shifts in rainfall and increased temperatures worldwide that are just as potent as those caused by current carbon pollution. Further, the study finds that future agricultural productivity across the globe is at risk from deforestation-induced warming and altered rainfall patterns. The report, "Effects of Tropical Deforestation on Climate Change and Agriculture,"...

NBC: New data from the Earth's last big warmup, some 56 million years ago, may offer a sneak peek into what today's climate change may eventually look like. Scientists have determined that the rate at which carbon emissions heated up the planet during the late Paleocene is much more similar to modern human-caused warming than many experts previously thought, a new report published Monday in Nature Geoscience shows. The good news, the researchers say, is that most of the species around at the time...

NASA preps launch of four satellites that will finally suss out the origins of Earths mysterious magnetic field
2014-11-26 17:44:10| Extremetech
This coming March NASA will be launching the Magnetospheric Multiscale Nission (MMS), a effort ten years in the making which will hopefully answer some of the many outstanding questions we have about Earth's magnetic field. In particular, the mission will create the first detailed three-dimensional maps of a process known as magnetic reconnection -- the phenomenon we experience most directly as geomagnetic storms, solar flares, and even the aurora.
