Many climate adaptation interventions focus excessively on the effects of climate change and less on examinations of what drives vulnerability. Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
Long an anomaly among glaciers, advancing while most others shrank, Taku Glacier is starting to succumb to climate change, offering an unprecedented look at the onset of tidewater glacier retreat.
In the March issue of Eos, we look at how scientists who study earthquakes, floods, and other hazards are factoring people into their models. Climate Change
Innovations in urban agriculture—from creative reuse of stormwater to soil rehabilitation—can help fight food insecurity and prevent further food issues. Read More »Education
Remote learning can be a catalyst for instructors and institutions to invest in teaching practices that reinforce growth mindsets and that help students share responsibility for learning outcomes. Education
Television programming reaches broad, diverse audiences, but scientists must help tell their own stories and speak to the communities in which they live.
In the March issue of Eos, we look at how scientists who study earthquakes, floods, and other hazards are factoring people into their models. Read More »Natural Hazards
People in rural communities are often hit disproportionately hard by natural hazards, largely because of in-equitable and inflexible risk reduction policies. But there are ways to change that. Natural Hazards
Natural hazard impacts and resources allocated for risk reduction and disaster recovery are often inequitably distributed. New research is developing and applying methods to measure these inequities.
Conducting weekly lidar surveys of coastal cliffs for 3 years enabled a California team of coastal erosion researchers to quantify and separate marine effects from subaerial effects. Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
Researchers have created a framework to trace the impacts of climate change and adaptation across energy and water systems in California. Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Volcanology
Researchers have created a framework to trace the impacts of climate change and adaptation across energy and water systems in California. Science Policy & Funding
Thanks to COVID-19, mission control for the Perseverance Mars rover will look emptier than previous missions, and fewer scientists and engineers will follow the rover’s schedule. Read More »Geology & Geophysics
New simulations of Earth’s outer core have reproduced magnetic fields that—for the first time—match paleomagnetic data collected from rocks. Planetary Sciences
