Cooling La Nina Expected To Be "Short-Lived": UN
The cooling weather phenomenon La Nina that emerged late last year is weak and likely to be brief, the UN said Thursday, dashing hopes it could help rein in soaring global temperatures.

Extreme Arctic Warming Sees North Pole Temperatures Rise Above Freezing
A sharp rise in Arctic temperatures saw the North Pole exceed freezing, with readings 20 degree Celsius above normal. Scientists warn of accelerating ice loss and climate change impacts. The event, attributed to a weather system near Iceland, has raised concerns about Arctic amplification, which causes the region to warm nearly four times faster th...

Frequent Extreme Weather Events Behind Food Inflation In India: Economic Survey
The food inflation rate in India has remained firm over the past two years defying the global trend, and frequent extreme weather events are one of the reasons, the government said in its latest Economic Survey.

Concerns Rise Over Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation Stability and Climate Impact
A new study suggests the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has remained stable over the past six decades, but experts remain divided. While some scientists argue the system has not weakened, others believe potential future disruptions to AMOC are inevitable, with major climate implications, including extreme weather events and cold...

Ocean Warming Rate Quadruples Over Four Decades, Accelerating Climate Change
New research highlights a troubling acceleration in ocean warming, with the rate of temperature rise quadrupling since the 1980s. According to a study in Environmental Research Letters, ocean surface temperatures now rise at 0.27°C per decade, up from 0.06°C. This rapid warming, driven by greenhouse gases like CO2 and methane, is worsening Earth'...

NOAA Confirms a Weak and 'Unusual' La Niña by Spring
An unusual La Niña event has been confirmed by NOAA, emerging later than expected in December 2024. This weaker and shorter cycle, part of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), is predicted to persist until April 2025. La Niña typically brings cooler and wetter winters to northern regions while causing warmer, drier conditions in the south. D...

2024 Marks Earth's Hottest Year Ever, Surpassing Critical 1.5 degree Celsius Warming Limit
In 2024, Earth recorded its hottest year ever, surpassing the critical 1.5 degree Celsius warming threshold for the first time in history. This significant temperature increase has been linked to intensified weather events, rising sea levels, and widespread environmental damage. The year saw an alarming rise in climate-related disasters, with the U...

2025 'Likely' To Be Among Top Three Warmest Years: UK Met Office
The UK weather service forecast Thursday that 2025 would likely be among the top three warmest years globally, falling just behind the record-breaking temperatures set in the past months.

More Than 50% Chance Of La Nina In Coming Months: Global Weather Office
There is more than a 50% chance of La Nina developing in the next three months, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) said on Wednesday, but if it does it will be relatively weak and short-lived.

NASA's Twin Mini Satellites Captures Far-Infrared Radiation from Polar Regions
NASA’s PREFIRE mission, launched in 2024, is utilizing CubeSats to capture groundbreaking data on far-infrared radiation emitted from polar regions. These measurements, which track heat escaping from the Arctic and Antarctic, provide critical insights into Earth’s energy balance, a key component in understanding climate change. Despite encounte...

Delhi Weather: November Warmest In 5 years, Temperature Dip Likely Next Week
Continuing the trend of warmer-than-usual months, November this year emerged as the warmest in the last five years, with the highest day and night temperatures.

2024 Set to Become Hottest Year on Record, Claim EU Scientists
2024 is projected to become the world’s hottest year, surpassing previous temperature records. With global temperatures exceeding 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, the surge is mainly due to human-driven climate change, compounded by the El Niño weather pattern. Scientists warn that without decisive global action, further warming and extreme w...

New Study Reveals Weaker Atlantic Current Could Mitigate Arctic Warming
Recent research from UC Riverside reveals that a weakening Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could limit Arctic temperature increases by up to 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century. While this slowdown may offer some relief, ongoing threats to Arctic wildlife and potential global weather disruptions remain a serious concern. ...

Study Warns Melting Arctic Ice Could Disrupt Ocean Currents in Europe
Scientists from UiT The Arctic University of Norway have issued a stark warning regarding the impact of melting Arctic sea ice on global ocean circulation patterns. Their recent study highlights that significant inflows of freshwater from melting sea ice into the Nordic Seas have historically led to dramatic cooling in northern Europe. By analysing...
