Auto industry faced with more uncertainty if government shuts down
Congress needs to pass a spending bill before Sunday to avoid a shutdown. However, lawmakers remain at odds over the funding, with some House Republicans pushing for deep spending cuts that are unlikely to survive in the Democratic-controlled Senate......»»
Fossil results indicate polar bears survived last global warming deglaciation in Siberian and Canadian refugia
Polar bears are a familiar sight to many through the media as we see evocative images of singular bears floating on isolated ice rafts as they face the harsh realities of climate change shrinking sea ice in the Arctic. Their range is significantly im.....»»
These reindeer survived, isolated, for 7,000 years, but will they survive climate change?
Despite inbreeding and limited genetic diversity, the Svalbard reindeer has managed to adapt to extreme living conditions in record time—what researchers call a genetic paradox. But can they survive climate change?.....»»
How to save plants from climate change. The answers may be the language of their tissues and physiology
Redwoods and oaks that thrive on California's coastline and coastal mountains might soon start finding it harder to survive. Human-caused climate change is altering the temperatures and rainfall patterns to which those and other trees are accustomed,.....»»

Polar experiments reveal seasonal cycle in Antarctic sea ice algae
In the frigid waters surrounding Antarctica, an unusual seasonal cycle occurs. During winter, from March to October, the sun barely rises. As seawater freezes it rejects salts, creating pockets of extra-salty brine where microbes live in winter. In s.....»»
Astronomers investigate intermediate polar TX Columbae
Using various spacecraft, astronomers from India and Chile have performed X-ray observations of a peculiar intermediate polar known as TX Columbae. Results of the observational campaign, published September 7 on the pre-print server arXiv, shed more.....»»
Discovery of two potential polar ring galaxies suggests they might be more common than previously believed
A group of international astronomers, including researchers from Queen's University, has identified two potential polar ring galaxies, according to results published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society......»»
New Saturn images show a change of seasons and a last glimpse of its huge, warm polar vortex
While the UK has been experiencing warm autumnal weather, a team of planetary scientists has found that Saturn's late northern summer is experiencing a cooling trend, as huge planetary-scale flows of air have reversed direction as autumn approaches......»»
Bees and other flying insects at greater risk of extinction as they migrate to higher elevations in changing climate
In response to rising global temperatures, many plants and animals are moving to higher elevations to survive in cooler temperatures. But a new study from the University of Colorado Denver (CU Denver) and Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech.....»»
How might coral adapt to rising ocean temperatures? Thermal priming of gametes could hold promise
As seawater temperatures rise, concern over the ability of coral to survive and reproduce also grows. Previous studies have largely focused on the effects of acclimating adult corals to warming temperatures via thermal priming, and have yielded varyi.....»»
Measuring the retreat of Italy"s largest glacier
The Adamello glacier, the largest in the Italian Alps, is slowly being destroyed by global warming, with experts giving it less than a century to survive......»»
Study quantifies link between greenhouse gases, polar bear survival
Polar bears have long symbolized the dangers posed by climate change, as rising temperatures melt away the Arctic sea ice they depend upon for survival......»»
Minnows blamed for algae-filled French, Spanish lakes
Perched 1,800 meters (about 6,000 feet) near France's border with Spain lies the emerald Areau lake—whose color experts blame on minnows used by anglers as live bait......»»
