New measurements of how boundary between onshore glacier and floating ice shelf glides back-and- forth could help predict melting. Most Antarctic glaciers flow straight into the ocean where they form large floating ice shelves. The grounding line is the place where the base of the ice firsts lifts off the sea floor and begins to...
Pioneering environment research at the University of Leeds has been applauded by Government's Minister for Energy Security and Net Zero. Graham Stuart MP met with climate and net zero experts during roundtable discussions at Nexus and to attend the Climate Change Committee’s (CCC) board meeting on campus. The roundtables included discussions on Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commission, communicating climate change,...
A new study shows unprecedented heat is likely to lead to the next mass extinction since the dinosaurs died out, eliminating nearly all mammals in some 250 million years time. The research, published in Nature Geoscience, presents the first-ever supercomputer climate models of the distant future and demonstrates how climate extremes will dramatically intensify when the...

The worlds of science and comic art have been brought together to deliver powerful messages about climate change. Three leading comic creators have collaborated with CONSTRAIN to develop comics exploring the climate change challenge. 'Degrees of Change' by Darryl Cunningham The comics feature satirical conversations between migrating polar bears and penguins, a trip to a...
