Solar radiation enters the Earth's atmosphere without any hindrance and should normally leave it as heat. Unfortunately, this is impeded by the thickening "greenhouse roof" consisting of carbon ...

Research over nearly a decade has tracked an unusual case of methane and carbon dioxide levels that seems to be actually cooling portions of Antarctica. Dubbed a negative greenhouse effect, this ...

MOREHEAD, Ky. (AP) — To harvest tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers, to clip herbs, to prune and propagate succulents, people work in oppressive heat and humidity. Some wring out shirts soaked with sweat.

A UCLA study shows that the amount of atmospheric desert dust has increased globally by roughly 55% since the mid-1800s. The change has likely had a slight overall cooling effect that has masked up to ...

A soil scientist from RUDN University studied the decomposition of organic matter in rice paddies—the sources of CO 2 and methane emissions. Both gases add to the greenhouse effect and affect climate ...
