As global temperatures rise, scientists are uncovering more information about how the overheating of our planet is making extreme weather events worse — especially heavy rainfall. However, scientists ...
(CN) — When it rains, it pours — and scientists warn that pattern has become more volatile due to global warming. Rainfall variability, the uneven distribution of rain over time, has been on the rise ...
New research shows that crops are far more vulnerable when too much rainfall originates from land rather than the ocean. Land-sourced moisture leads to weaker, less reliable rainfall, heightening ...
A new NASA-led study has found that how rain falls in a given year is nearly as important to the world's vegetation as how much. Reporting Dec. 11 in Nature, the researchers showed that even in years ...
Nutrient enrichment driven by canopy rainfall redistribution: Mechanism, quantification, and pattern
Precipitation deeply couples with nutrient cycling through its interactions with atmospheric deposition and canopy interception, which alters its own chemical properties. Throughfall and stemflow ...
Volcanoes can have a major impact on rainfall around the world, according to a recent study by Princeton University. New research published in Nature Geoscience shows that large volcanic eruptions can ...
Scientists believe they have found a way to improve warning systems for vulnerable communities threatened by humid heatwaves, which are on the rise due to climate change and can be damaging and even ...
