Mount Spurr Volcano in Alaska Shows Signs of Possible Eruption
- Thursday March 20, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Mount Spurr, a stratovolcano west of Anchorage, has shown rising seismic activity, gas emissions, and melting snow, suggesting magma movement beneath the surface. Scientists at the Alaska Volcano Observatory believe an eruption is becoming more likely, with historical eruptions in 1953 and 1992 at Crater Peak having sent ash plumes over Anchorage. ...

Earth's Orbit and Tilt Linked to Ice Age Cycles, Next One Delayed by Climate Change
- Wednesday March 5, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have discovered a strong link between Earth's tilt and past ice ages, predicting the next glacial period would have started in 11,000 years. However, rising greenhouse gas emissions are disrupting these natural cycles. The research, based on ocean sediment data, supports the theory that Earth's obliquity governs ice expansion while prece...

Greenland's Ice Sheet Approaches Dangerous Tipping Point Amid Rapid Melting
- Thursday February 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Greenland’s massive ice sheet is losing ice at an accelerating rate, with scientists warning that a global temperature rise of just 2°C could trigger irreversible collapse. The loss of 230 gigatons of ice per year is the estimated threshold for this tipping point. If melting continues at current rates, sea levels could rise by approximately 7 me...

Permafrost Thawing Could Accelerate Climate Change, Here’s What It Means
- Tuesday December 17, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Permafrost, a frozen layer rich in organic matter, is degrading due to rising temperatures. By the end of the century, researchers predict significant thawing, releasing carbon into the atmosphere. In a study by Zhengzhou University and Purdue University, thawing scenarios under two climate pathways (SSP126 and SSP585) project the release of up to ...
