New research quantifies what's causing sea level to rise
2014-10-30 14:17:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: There have been a number of studies that have come out recently on ocean warming and sea-level rise. Collectively, they are helping scientists coalesce around an emerging understanding of climate change and its impact on the Earth. Most recently, a study by scientists Sarah Purkey, Gregory Johnson, and Don Chambers was published. This team was responsible for a 2010 paper that was groundbreaking in that it quantified very deep (abyssal) sea warming. This latest paper is, in some respects, a continuation...

Natural Gas Production Causing Large Methane Hotspot Over U.S. Southwest
2014-10-10 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: A single methane hotspot in the U.S. Southwest accounts for 10 percent of the nations total estimated methane emissions, according to an analysis by researchers at the University of Michigan and Caltech. The area is centered in New Mexico's San Juan Basin near the shared borders of Colorado, Utah, and Arizona -- the site of the largest and most active coalbed natural gas production operation in the U.S. Natural gas from the basin is more than 95 percent methane, a significantly more potent heat-trapping...

Wind causing most of temperature rise in north-west US
2014-09-22 21:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: The north-western US has experienced 100 years of warming, leading to wildfires and infestations of pests like pine beetles. But the extra heat seems to be linked to natural changes in the winds of the Pacific rather than human-caused climate change. Since 1900, the north-west US, including northern California and Oregon, has warmed by about 0.8 °C. James Johnstone of the University of Washington in Seattle wanted to see if global warning was responsible. "There does seem to be a tendency for...
