Texas Floods: Record Rainfall Fueled by Climate Change
Torrential rains in Texas caused the Guadalupe River to rise 26 feet in under an hour on Friday, the second highest on record, due to slow-moving thunderstorms and abundant tropical moisture amplified by climate change, resulting in widespread flash flooding.

Glacial Melt Triggers Surge in Volcanic Activity
A new study shows that the melting of glaciers and ice caps due to climate change is leading to increased volcanic activity, particularly in west Antarctica, where at least 100 volcanoes are located beneath the ice. The research, presented at the Goldschmidt geochemistry conference, found that the r...

Atomic Clocks Replace Earth's Rotation in Global Timekeeping
Before the 1950s, the Earth's rotation determined the length of a day; now, atomic clocks synchronized to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) provide nanosecond accuracy, crucial for modern technology, though the Earth's irregular rotation necessitates adjustments like leap seconds, soon to be disconti...
