Despite its small size, Mars seems to have a huge impact on the orbital cycles that govern Earth’s climate, especially those ...

A pull in the right direction ...

Our planet has experienced dramatic climate shifts throughout its history, oscillating between freezing "icehouse" periods ...

Carbon released from Earth's spreading tectonic plates, not volcanoes, may have triggered major transitions between ancient ...

Earth's slow axial wobbles—known as precession cycles—do not just shape long-term climate trends. A new study led by researchers from China, Belgium, and Austria shows that these orbital motions can ...

Scientists analyzed chemical and isotopic markers in groundwater to reconstruct changes in water table levels over time.

Earth’s ice ages have long been blamed on subtle wobbles in our own orbit, but new research suggests a distant accomplice is ...

Mars is really far away, between 33.9 million miles at its closest and 250 million miles away at its furthest. However, that doesn’t mean our planetary neighbor doesn’t still have an effect on Earth ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising mechanism that may explain how Earth cooled dramatically after the age of dinosaurs.

Understanding climate change requires more than tracking surface-level impacts—it means examining the mechanisms driving change, the feedback loops that accelerate it, and the thresholds that could ...

A large fleet study finds EV batteries lose capacity slowly, often lasting more than a decade with everyday charging habits.
