Listening to earthquakes to understand the melting of permafrost
Using data collected by an earthquake monitoring site abutting Mount Zugspitze, geologists have found a correlation between melting permafrost and seismic waves. The latter would propagate less quickly when the…
Why are lichens going to disappear soon?
A new study shows that the adaptation of lichens to climate change is very slow, with a temperature change tolerance of less than 1°C every million years. You will also…

Scientists think we need to review the role of methane in global warming
When we talk about global warming, we immediately talk about carbon dioxide (CO2). And we sometimes forget rather quickly that there are other greenhouse gases. Methane (CH4) especially. Its ability…
Global warming: the underestimated role of methane?

Coral reefs will not survive a global warming of +1.5°C
That global warming would endanger coral reefs, scientists have known for a long time. But new work today shows a reality that they had not dared to imagine. Because, with…
This global atlas of more than 200,000 glaciers is forcing scientists to revise estimates of glacial water stocks
Mountain glaciers are essential for the availability of fresh water on our planet. Knowing the amount of ice stored is necessary to better understand their behavior and better simulate their…
