Daily News: America the beautifuls amber waves of grain could dry up and blow away if carbon emissions arent curbed, scientists predict. Unprecedented drought conditions, could leave much of California, the Southwest and Midwest dry as a bone by 2050 due to global warming, according to a study NASA scientists released Thursday. The epic dry spells would make current droughts look like a break in the clouds compared with the arid conditions predicted. Nearly every year is going to be dry toward the end...

Cold Air Invasion Coming: Whats Role of Warming?
2015-02-11 22:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: Temperatures are set to drop to levels that are low even for the middle of winter across the eastern U.S. starting Thursday and again over the weekend as Arctic air makes repeated surges southward. Temperatures Sunday morning could be below freezing as far south as Florida. This pattern may sound familiar to those in the eastern U.S. who shivered under repeated such incursions last winter, when the term "polar vortex' became all the rage. The non-stop sucker punches of frigid air also brought...
Global Warming May Boost Dead Zones in Oceans

ClimateWire: The findings raise concerns about whether warming conditions will make certain parts of the ocean uninhabitable for a wide range of marine life that needs oxygen to survive. Scientists are finding clues about how climate change could affect marine life by looking deep into the global ocean's past experiences with warming. Through analysis of ocean sediment data, researchers at the University of California, Davis, found that the last time the planet underwent a major temperature change at the...

According to the countrys Bureau of Meteorology, a devastating heat wave in late 2012-early 2013 saw records set in every State and Territory the nationally averaged daily temperature rose to levels never previously observed, and did this for an extended period. What...

Global warming is causing more extreme storms
2015-02-09 15:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Scientists have known for decades (more than a century actually) that increases in greenhouse gases will cause the Earth to warm. What is less clear is how this warming will impact the weather we experience on a daily, monthly, or yearly basis. Recent research shows that we are already feeling the changes. So, how might a warm planet be different from the planet we inherited? Increased temperatures can cause more heat waves, more droughts, more intense rainfall, higher water-vapor levels, sea-level...
