A landmass that once housed up to half a million people has been discovered off the coast of northern Australia. The now submerged continental shelf was a vast, habitable landscape for much of the past 65,000 years, covering some 390,000 square kilometers – an area larger than New Zealand The scientists who made the landmark … Read more
A geoengineering technique designed to lower high temperatures in California could inadvertently intensify heat waves in Europe, according to a study modeling the unintended consequences of regional tinkering with a changing climate. The article shows that targeted interventions to reduce temperatures in a given area for one season may provide temporary benefits for some population … Read more

An underwater fault line along America’s west coast could trigger a megaquake that would be more devastating than California’s ‘Big One’, a new study suggests. Using underwater mapping techniques, scientists have mapped the Cascadia Subduction Zone – a 600-mile-long fault line stretching from southern Canada to Northern California – in unprecedented detail. It has been … Read more
