New NASA satellite images of polar cyclones on Jupiter are helping Annalisa Bracco and a network of fellow scientists understand the forces and fluid dynamics that drive these unique weather patterns.
Kim M. Cobb, Hanjoong Jo, and Carlos A. R. Sa de Melo are among AAAS scientists, engineers, and innovators being recognized for scientifically and socially distinguished achievements.
Georgia Tech is partnering with two Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratories to better understand how wetlands function, enabling scientists to better understand their role in controlling water quality.
Alexander Robel leads a new study projecting that warm seawater — seeping under certain glaciers — could eventually lead to future sea level rise that’s double that of existing estimates, with new findings published in The Cryosphere.
Georgia Tech's Samer Naif co-authors study showing streams of heated rocks called mantle plumes probably play a role in creating a slippery base for tectonic plates.
Susan Lozier, dean and Betsy Middleton and John Clark Sutherland Chair of the College of Sciences, will serve a three-year term on the inaugural Climate Security Roundtable, a joint initiative across the U.S. Congress and the National Academies.
Researchers have developed a methodology to determine why coastal glaciers are retreating, and in turn, how much can be attributed to human-caused climate change.
Antarctic supraglacial lakes have been linked to ice-shelf collapse and acceleration of inland ice flow. A new study shows lake area and volume vary substantially from year-to-year around the East Antarctic Ice Sheet and between ice shelves.
School of Biological Sciences Professor Joel Kostka’s decade of research in Minnesota peatlands has received a boost from a new Department of Energy grant, set to explore how science can address climate change with emphasis on carbon storage.
