Climate Central: In case there was any doubt, NASA has released a reminder that this El Nio is big, likely to get bigger (maybe even record-setting) and that the weather is likely to be anything but normal through this winter for much of the U.S. A new set of maps published by the NASA Earth Observatory show that oceans are getting close to replicating the 1997-98 El Nio that's referred to as the climate event of the century. The maps compare sea level heights of that famous El Nio to the one currently ramping...

Washington Post: In a new study, a team of scientists who specialize in studying rising seas bring the implications of their research right to the U.S.s doorstep -- calculating just how many American cities and municipalities are at risk of being flooded in the future, as well as how many may already be committed to that fate. The striking result is that millions of Americans may already live on land destined to be someday -- albeit perhaps in a very distant future -- reclaimed by the sea. But the number for...

Expert says algae cultivation will be needed as rising heat shrinks farmland
2015-10-09 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ClimateWire: Algae may be tiny, but new research suggests the single-celled organisms could play an outsized role in slowing the rate of global warming over the rest of the 21st century. In fact, it is their small size, or rather their small land requirement, that could make them an important tool to help mitigate climate change, according to Brian Walsh, a research scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). Unlike most crops that have very specific growing conditions, algae...
