Pakistan, May 30 -- The world is heading into another period of dangerous heat, a new United Nations (UN) report warns on Thursday, and it's nearly certain global temperatures over the next five years ...

By winter, there's a two out of three chance that the climate pattern will be strong or very strong, increasing the ...

The circumglobal teleconnection pattern (CGT) is a key mode of atmospheric variability during boreal summer, identified by an upper-tropospheric wave train propagating along the subtropical jet. CGT ...

Scientists are still untangling the complex relationship between El Niño and human-driven warming, but their confluence has major implications for extreme weather and global temperatures.

A new review published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences sheds light on one of climate science’s enduring puzzles: how the patterns of tropical ocean warming influence the behavior of tropical ...

Schematic of CGT and its impact on heatwave. The upper-tropospheric wave train is CGT, and the anti-cyclonic (cyclonic) anomaly can lead to longer (shorter) duration of heatwave. The Circum-global ...

New research by NOAA and a visiting scientist from India shows that warming of the Indo-Pacific Ocean is altering rainfall patterns from the tropics to the United States, contributing to declines in ...
