Copenhagen’s safest bets for a dry weather bike ride

You have a 25% greater risk of cycling in the rain if you live in Hellerup than if saddling up in Ishøj. Two researchers from the University of Copenhagen and DTU took a closer look at where and when it rains most in an…

Pay dirt for ice core scientists in East Greenland as they reach bedrock

An international research collaboration (EGRIP) headed by ice core scientists from the University of Copenhagen has attained their goal of drilling to the bottom of the ice sheet. It marks the first time that this has…

Gloomy climate calculation: Scientists predict a collapse of the Atlantic ocean current to happen mid-century

Important ocean current that redistribute heat, cold and precipitation between the tropics and the northernmost parts of the Atlantic region will shut down around the year 2060 if current greenhouse gas emissions…
