Think more rain means more river water? Not necessarily - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
More rain and snow equals more water in rivers, right? Not necessarily. A new study shows that, despite receiving more rainfall than they used to, river water levels are falling because of changes in climate. Global heating is intensifying the hydrological cycle, making wet regions wetter and dry regions drier, but how is this affecting river flow? Researchers from the Pennsylvania State University, in the US, have analysed precipitation and river flow records in more than 10,000 rivers between
How opencast mining risks reawakening dormant geological faults - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The impact of opencast mining goes far beyond the edge of the pit. Studies of an opencast coalmine in western Germany show that opencast mining triggered extensive subsidence in the surrounding area and re-activated dormant geological faults. Underground mines are often associated with ground subsidence, but less is known about the risks associated with opencast mines. Researchers from the GFZ Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany, studied satellite data and geological field measu
Why El Niño can mean less rain but heavier downpours for India (opens the original)
Read excerpt
El Niño is associated with weaker monsoons in India â but research suggests it can also bring more extreme rainfall The world is bracing for a âsuperâ El Niño, and its effects are already being felt in India, where the monsoon has brought less rain than average but more intense downpours. Meteorologists predict that the current El Niño, which is developing over the Pacific, could be one of the strongest in living memory. India is likely to be heavily affected, particularly later in the
Why El Niño can mean less rain but heavier downpours for India - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world is bracing for a “super” El Niño, and its effects are already being felt in India, where the monsoon has brought less rain than average but more intense downpours. Meteorologists predict that the current El Niño, which is developing over the Pacific, could be one of the strongest in living memory. India is likely to be heavily affected, particularly later in the monsoon, when El Niño’s influence tends to strengthen. But, as Ligin Joseph of the University of Southampton explains in The
Specieswatch: Deciduous trees are marching north and ousting evergreens - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A warmer world is making high latitude forests more deciduous and less evergreen, research shows. Global heating has increased the likelihood of extreme events such as wildfires and storms and this warmer and less stable environment is favouring deciduous trees over evergreens. Boreal forest stretches for miles and miles across high northern latitudes, covering huge swathes of Canada, Russia, Alaska and Scandinavia. It makes up nearly a third of global forest area and is mainly made up of evergr
