A strengthening El Niño and emerging positive Indian Ocean Dipole could fuel Pacific storms, bringing more rain to California and snow to the Sierra this winter.
As climate change advances, the ocean's overturning circulation is predicted to weaken substantially. With such a slowdown, scientists estimate the ocean will pull down less carbon dioxide from the ...

Europe's catastrophic 'flood of the millennium' in 1342 wasn't a single event
Europe’s famous 1342 St. Mary Magdalene’s Flood was part of a much larger disaster, with 16 major floods striking the ...
The way climate change affects thermodynamic signals, such as atmospheric temperatures, is relatively well understood. Its effects on atmospheric circulation, however, are more complex because the ...
A slowing Atlantic current could strengthen California’s atmospheric rivers, increasing winter precipitation, flood risks and water challenges, a study finds.
Atmospheric circulation encompasses the large-scale movement of air that redistributes heat, moisture and momentum across the globe, giving rise to characteristic cells, jets and weather systems. The ...
Atmospheric rivers – those long, narrow bands of water vapor in the sky that bring heavy rain and storms to the U.S. West Coast and many other regions – are shifting toward higher latitudes, and ...
