A study led by NCAR postdoctoral researcher Jia Hu and Julia Klein from Colorado State University looks at the relationship between plants, water, carbon, and climate on the Tibetan Plateau, which is warming at a rate twice that of the global average.

Last year, a team of NCAR scientists verified that the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) can be used to depict seasonal snowfall in Colorado with a high degree of accuracy. Now the team is using WRF to forecast future snowfall.

New research indicates reduced spring snowpack and warmer summer temperatures will affect wolverine habitat.

Geoengineering our climate system to ward off the effects of global warming may end up cooling the tropics to below present-day levels.

The magnitude of climate change millions of years ago suggests that future temperatures may increase far more than projected.
