Climate change is making ocean levels rise in two ways. It’s a problem that will endure even after the world stabilizes and slashes greenhouse gas pollution.

Constructed ice domes release water during dry periods when rain is blocked by high mountain ranges, stifling essential crop cultivation for rural communities.

Mangroves grow in saltwater along tropical coastlines, but scientists have found them along a river in Mexico’s Yucatan, more than 100 miles from the sea. Climate change explains their shift.

From the high Yukon to the mountains of Central Asia, melting ice exposes fragile ancient artifacts that tell the story of the past – and provide hints about how to respond to a changing climate.

Dams built in an earlier age are suddenly vulnerable as the climate shifts.

The demise of West Antarctica's Thwaites Glacier, one of the world's largest and most unstable glaciers, may not be as imminent as previously feared.

If emissions continue at their current pace, Antarctica will cross a threshold into runaway sea rise when today’s kids are raising families. Pulling CO2 out of the air later won't stop the ice loss.

Glaciers aren't sterile wastelands – they're chock-full of microscopic life.

New research shows how fibre-optic cables can monitor the hidden structure of glaciers, teaching us about past and future ice flow.
