ScienceDaily: Will climate change make the U.S. Midwest drier or wetter during the summer growing season? A new Dartmouth-led study finds that the answer remains uncertain. The findings are important given the Midwest's agricultural output is critical to the U.S. economy and global food security. The study appears in the journal Water Resources Research. The study included researchers from Dartmouth College, Columbia University, National University of Singapore and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. A potential...

Beached iceberg helps reveal ecological impact of sea-ice changes
2015-05-18 12:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] The grounding of a giant iceberg in Antarctica has provided a unique real-life experiment that has revealed the vulnerability of marine ecosystems to sudden changes in sea-ice cover. UNSW Australia scientists have found that within just three years of the iceberg becoming stuck in Commonwealth Bay - an event which dramatically increased sea-ice cover in the bay - almost all of the seaweed on the sea floor had decomposed, or become discoloured or bleached due to lack of lig…

Rulings require feds to consider carbon impact of coal mines
2015-05-16 09:41:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: Beset by power plant closures, growing regulatory scrutiny and proposed changes in how they pay royalties, coal mines are facing a new obstacle -- a review of how coal extracted and burned will impact the air and global warming. Under a series of rulings by U.S. judges in Denver over the last year, federal agencies that approve mining projects have been told to take into account coal's indirect environmental impact along with traditional concerns about mine dust and equipment emissions. The...
