Climate Change, Migration and Security in South Asia
South Asia will be among the regions hardest hit by climate change
Secrets of Abrupt Climate Shifts revisited
The understanding of the puzzle about what is going on with our climate system and possible implications improved recently.
Exceptional 2012 Greenland Ice Melt Caused By Jet Stream Changes That May Be Driven By Global Warming
Unusual changes in atmospheric jet stream circulation caused the exceptional surface melt of the Greenland Ice Sheet.
Heatwaves blamed on Global Warming
Unusually high frequency points to human influence.
Fresh water makes hurricanes, typhoons, tropical cyclones 50 percent more intense
A rough estimate for the destruction wreaked by a hurricane is the cube of its intensity.
Cyclone Activity Intensified in the Arctic
Our investigation indicates that Arctic cyclone activity increased.
Estimating the permafrost-carbon feedback on global warming
Thawing of permafrost and the associated release of carbon constitutes a positive feedback in the climate system.

Soil carbon and climate: From the Jenkinson effect to the compost-bomb instability
The instability is also found to be strongly dependent on the rate of global warming.
Last Time Carbon Dioxide Levels Were This High: 15 Million Years Ago
You would have to go back at least 15 million years to find carbon dioxide levels on Earth as high as they are today.
