Bird-banding data in North America shows a spring migration pattern that’s become progressively earlier with each of the last 5 decades, and a fall migration that’s lasting longer than 50 years ago.

A major ocean current in the Arctic is faster and more turbulent as a result of rapid sea ice melt, according to a new study.

One hundred million years ago, a bee got trapped in tree resin. Over time, geological forces converted the resin to amber. Now a scientist arrives on the scene, to tell us this bee’s story.

Recently-discovered fossils shed new light on an enormous horned turtle that roamed South America 5 to 10 million years ago.

A new tyrannosaur species named Thanatotheristes, which means “reaper of death,” was the apex predator of its time, 79 million years ago in present day Alberta, Canada.

January 2020 was the planet’s hottest January in the NOAA global temperature dataset record, which dates back to 1880.

Scientists raced against a rising tide to recover a tantalizing fossil on an island in southeast Alaska. It turned out to be a species new to science.

For the first time, a new experiment from the University of Cambridge has shown how sand dunes “communicate” and interact with each other as they move.

The recent wildfires in Australia sent one of the largest plumes of smoke higher into the the stratosphere than satellites have ever before observed.

Space researchers and amateur photographers in Finland have categorized a new type of aurora, or northern lights. They call them “dunes.” Read more and see a video.

The warm water found flowing under Thwaites Glacier in western Antarctica helps explain its rapid melting. Thwaites is part of what’s described the “weak underbelly” of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Its melting has implications for sea-level rise around the world.
