New method to map the surface of the moon increases accuracy to unprecedented levels

This new method uses a much more direct and precise calculation, it doesn’t rely on a whole set of parameters to be fed into the computer, and it can even calculate the uncertainties and the accuracy.

Danish astrophysics student discovers link between global warming and locally unstable weather

A Danish astrophysics student at the Niels Bohr Institute has used a mathematical approach to unveil how global temperature increase engenders locally unstable weather on Earth.

Dorthe Dahl-Jensen awarded Hans Egede Medal

On Wednesday, ice core researcher Dorthe Dahl-Jensen was awarded the Hans Egede Medal for her research into Earth’s climate history. Her research has included longer stays on Greenland's deserted ice sheet and offers a…

Ancient ice reveals scores of gigantic volcanic eruptions

Ice cores drilled in Antarctica and Greenland have revealed gigantic volcanic eruptions during the last ice age. Sixty-nine of these were larger than any eruption in modern history. According to the University of…

Past global photosynthesis reacted quickly to more carbon in the air

Ice cores allow climate researchers to look 800,000 years back in time: atmospheric carbon acts as fertilizer, increasing biological production. The mechanism removes carbon from the air and thereby dampens the…
