The first-ever study of air trapped in the deep snowpack of Greenland has yielded surprising results. Current computer models had predicted that levels of carbon monoxide locked into the snowpack would be higher than those recorded in the 1950s, yet it appears that the opposite is true.

A recent paper published in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics has shown that CO levels rose slightly from 1950 until the 1970s, then declined strongly to present-day values. These findings contradict computer models that had calculated a 40 percent overall increase in CO levels over the same period.

A recent study by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has proved beyond any reasonable doubt that global warming is not a natural phenomena, but caused directly by the impact of human greenhouse gas production. But how this is affecting climate is still open to question, as the report also states that temperatures have not increased as much as global warming models predicted given the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

This first instalment of a three part report, which will be released over the next 12 months, is set to provide the most accurate and thorough appraisal of the climate change issue, in which it claims that humans are the ‘"dominant cause" of the problem which was identified in the 1950s.

Can energy from the remnants of exploding stars out in the Galaxy really affect cloud formation in the Earth’s atmosphere?

Since 1996, Danish researchers have been attempting to prove that cosmic rays from outer space could play a significant role in cloud formation. read more

The central United States continues to experience unusual and unsettled summer weather. Yesterday, record downpours took place along the front range of the Rockies, causing flash flooding in Boulder and Aurora. The rain came so fast and the flooding was so sudden that emergency services were nearly overwhelmed. Hundreds of people left their homes. At least two people are known dead in Boulder County and it is expected that more will be found along roadways that flooded almost without warning, sweeping vehicles away. Seven inches of rain fell overnight, a huge amount for the region. Boulder Creek, which runs through Boulder City and the University of Colorado campus went from being a beautiful waterway to a raging, menacing torrent.
