Increasing overlap of fire weather between Australia and North America complicates international firefighting efforts.

A technique to cool the planet, in which particles are added to the atmosphere to reflect sunlight, would not require developing special aircraft but could be achieved using existing large planes, according to a new modelling study led by UCL researchers.

On New Year's Day 2024, a massive 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck north central Japan. To better understand how the characteristics of the affected fault lines impact earthquake dynamics, researchers used recently developed simulations.

Coastal models enhance understanding of future flooding frequency on atoll islands, paving the way to explore the limits of adaptation in the face of rising sea levels and climate change.

Using data from a technology called distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), researchers developed a method to provide warnings up to 30 minutes in advance of lava eruptions. The method offers a way to volcanic activity and provide early warnings.

Secondary gravity waves emerge as the hidden architects of global-scale thermospheric upheaval following the Tonga eruption in 2022.

To improve readiness for extreme weather, detailed information about all the factors that cause flooding, such as storm surges, rainfall and waves, is essential. New research offers a way to understand how these factors interact in complex ways.

Extreme heat is putting people in Australia at serious risk of heart problems and premature deaths, according to new research. As the climate warms, rising temperatures could more than double Australia's burden of cardiovascular diseases by 2050.
