Climate & Environment
Mountain chickadees have among the best spatial memory in the animal kingdom. New research identifies the genes at play and offers insight into how a shifting climate may impact the evolution of their memory skills.
This summer in 15 states across the Southeast and Midwest, two cicada broods will emerge simultaneously for the first time since 1803. ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ Sammy Ramsey offers insight on these singing, red-eyed bugs and how they benefit the planet.
Ant species living in Boulder’s foothills have shifted their habitat over the last six decades, potentially affecting local ecosystems, suggests a new ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ study.
ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ and Colorado State University researchers are teaming up to improve river water quality using machine learning.
ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ's Katja Friedrich is known for her work in cloud seeding, a process used to generate precipitation from existing clouds.
A new analysis from 2,655 farms on five continents suggests that moving away from industrial, monoculture farming could benefit both the planet and people.
A new paper co-authored by ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ professors lays out a blueprint for mandating indoor air quality standards for public buildings.
A paper co-authored by ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ doctoral candidate Claire Powers offers a potential solution to a pesky problem, clustering similar farming practices together.
A new report from ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ Mortenson Center in Global Engineering & Resilience and Castalia Advisors identifies a $160 billion opportunity for the voluntary carbon market to reduce water sector emissions over the next decade while also increasing global water security.
A ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ engineer and his international colleagues have discovered a new way to manufacture solar cells using perovskite semiconductors. It could lead to lower-cost, more efficient systems for powering homes, cars, boats and drones.
