However, a study led...
Replanting is done in phases, with old vines notably Chenin keeping up production while the new ones grow.On a South African wine estate, piles of dry, uprooted grapevines lie at the base of a barren, hilly terrain.Vineyards are replanting to adapt to climate change, anticipating infrequent but intense rainfall in the wine region.From Australia...

A new study has offered challenging new insights into evolution and could revolutionize our approach to multiple real-world issues. Credit:Unsplash.Recent research challenges the notion that evolution is unpredictable, shedding light on how a genome's past influences its future trajectory. With implications ranging from synthetic biology to medicine and environmental science, this discovery offers new possibilities...
These isolated instances of elevated global temperatures are indicative of a larger overarching trend. Credit: Unsplash.In a concerning development late last week, global temperatures briefly surged past a critical benchmark that climate scientists had been dreading. Preliminary data suggests that on Friday, the mean global temperature likely exceeded a crucial threshold of 2°C (3.6°F)...
Eventos disruptivos de geração solar, chamados rampas, mudarão significativamente no futuro. Credit: PixaobayThe stability of grid-connected solar power systems in Australia's renewable energy transition should take into account the potential impact of climate change, which may affect their future performance.Modeling conducted by researchers at UNSW Sydney indicates that disruptive solar generation events, known as...
Credit: Unsplash.In a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Professor Michael Mann from the University of Pennsylvania and his colleagues from Clemson University, the University of California Los Angeles, and Columbia University explored the impact of climate change on exacerbating compound heat and drought situations.The research provides valuable insights...
Credit: Unsplash.What occurs when climate change is introduced into the equation is the potential for the emergence of new species worldwide, as various organism groups become distinct and follow separate evolutionary paths.In the publication "Contrasting effects of warming in diverging insects," which was recently released in Ecology Letters, Thomas H.Q. Powell, an assistant lecturer...
People moving under heavy rain in Bangladesh. Credit: Newshour.Bangladesh, a country with low-lying topography, contributes only 0.5% of the global carbon emissions. Despite its minimal carbon footprint, Bangladesh bears a disproportionate burden of the consequences of climate change caused by such emissions. Nevertheless, Bangladesh is actively developing innovative methods to forecast and safeguard against...
