The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its Climate Change and Land: An IPCC Special Report on climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems in August 2019....
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report last week warning of the mounting effects of global warming on the seas, increasing temperatures and acidification, and on the world's melting ice. It noted the potential dangers from sea level rise, water shortages in glacier-fed rivers, declining and shifting fish stocks, and increased frequency and severity of storms...
The report provides a cohesive assessment of the state of the earth system under the increasing influence of anthropogenic climate change. Data sources used in the report include the WMO Global Atmosphere Watch, UNEP Emissions Gap Report, three IPCC Special Reports released in 2018 and 2019 and studies by the Global Carbon Project, Future Earth and Earth League, and the Global Framework for Climat...
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) - the UN body responsible for communicating the science of climate breakdown-has released its long-awaited Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate....
As a massive expanse of unusually warm water spreads across the northeastern Pacific Ocean for the second time in the past five years, the latest special report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), released today, finds that marine heatwaves have “very likely” become twice as frequent and increasingly intense over the past four […]...

Photo by hehaden/Flickr We know what is needed in response to the climate challenges that we face. The release of the IPCC Special Report on global warming of 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) last year urged us all to take rapid action on reducing ...
Humanity is exacting a terrible toll on the ocean. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will publish its Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate later this week. Its overarching message will be that global warming, combined with the negative impacts of numerous other human activities, is devastating our ocean, with alarming declines in fish stocks, the deat...
Abstract Background To reduce the uncertainty in estimates of carbon emissions resulting from deforestation and forest degradation, better information on the carbon density per land use/land cover (LULC) class and in situ carbon and nitrogen data is needed. This allows a better representation of the spatial distribution of carbon and...

How much blue carbon loss and recovery following land-use change? Comparing global systematic review and field assessments from Indonesian Papua mangroves The coastal mangrove forest is one of the blue carbon ecosystems and most efficient carbon sink ecosystems on earth. However, these carbon-dense wetlands are currently under pressure from major land-use and land-cover changes (LULCCs), wh...
