It all comes down to the difference in temperature between the North Pole and the equator.
A historical record of Arctic sea ice based on the abundance of cosmic dust in sediments on the sea bed of the Arctic Ocean has revealed how the sea ice responds to climate warming.
A new global wildfire report reveals how human-caused warming made fire weather dozens of times more likely — and shows how satellites are helping scientists track the planet's future.
