The Falkland Islands are known today for cool winds, broad grasslands, and very few trees. That modern picture is accurate, but it is not the whole story. Pollen found beneath the capital shows these ...

Declining snow accumulation in the mountains of the Northeastern U.S. will likely reduce the ability of forests to act as a carbon sink, a study has found. The shrinking snowpack and destructive ...

Many forests are losing their winter snowpack as global temperatures rise, and that could substantially slow their growth – and reduce the amount of carbon they remove from the atmosphere. Current ...

I noticed there is a temperature graph at the sleep stage overview (4 week overview, see provided screenshot, the pink line). I think it would be handy to have a graph of this on the site, so we can ...
