NOAA Scientist Creates New Way to Track Carbon Pollution
2016-04-15 14:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: A new air sampling device may help scientists better track carbon pollution in the atmosphere. Listen here or read below: As countries around the world commit to reducing emissions, measuring their carbon pollution is critical to tracking progress. Pieter Tans is a senior scientist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and hes invented a tool that might help. The AirCore is a patented air sampling device that at first seems improbably simple: a steel tube--500 feet long and...

NOAA: Carbon Dioxide Levels Exploded in 2015 Highest Since Ice Age
2016-03-11 16:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rose 3.05 parts per million in 2015, the largest year-to-year increase ever recorded, scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) report finds. It was the fourth year in a row that CO2 concentrations grew by more than 2 parts per million. Carbon dioxide levels are increasing faster than they have in hundreds of thousands of years, a lead scientist at NOAA said. Some of the spike in CO2 levels can be attributed to...
NOAA and NASA Team Up to Investigate Strong El Nio
2016-02-14 15:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: America's two leading climate science agencies are conducting an unprecedented survey via land, sea and air to investigate the current El Nio event and better understand its impact on weather systems that have brought both parched and soaking conditions to North America. The project, which will conclude in March, will deploy resources from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NASA to analyze one of the strongest El Nios on record. El Nio is a periodic phenomenon in...

Climate Change Poses Threat to Key Ingredient in Beer, NOAA Warns
2016-02-07 17:12:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: As any beer lover knows, hops are a key ingredient in beer. But now, climate change poses a threat to hops production, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The U.S. is the second largest hops-producing country in the world. But almost all of the nation`s commercial hopyards are located in just three states: Washington, Oregon and Idaho. Washington alone produces nearly three-quarters of all the nation`s hops. In 2015, an estimated 71 percent of U.S. hops were...

NYSE Post: 2015 was Earth's hottest year on record, according to new data released Wednesday by NOAA and NASA. NOAA said 2015's global temperature was 58.62 degrees, passing 2014 by a record margin of 0.29 degrees. As the NASA report revealed, the average surface temperature across the world has increased by a steep 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit or 1.0 degree Celsius in the past century. Meteorologists from United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NASA have recently confirmed that...
