El Niño-Southern Oscillation and Radiation Two-Way Coupling

by Suzana Camargo 9 February 20221 August 2022

Changes in sea surface temperature during ENSO events and radiation are related, suggesting a two-way coupling between sea surface temperature and radiation in coupled climate variability.

Tropical Climate Change Is a Puzzle—Could Aerosols Be a Piece?

by Andrew Chapman 9 September 202114 April 2022

The eastern tropical Pacific Ocean hasn’t warmed as much as climate change models projected. A new study shows that aerosols in the atmosphere could be responsible.

Climate Change Uproots Global Agriculture

Kimberly M. S. Cartier, News Writing and Production Intern for Eos.org by Kimberly M. S. Cartier 25 January 202130 September 2022

Climate change is shifting where ideal growing conditions exist and is leaving farmers behind. How can we secure our future food supply and support the people who grow it?
