Yale University scientists may have cracked a part of the chemical code for one of the most basic, yet mysterious, processes in the natural world — nature’s ability to transform nitrogen from the air into usable nitrogen compounds.
The process is called...
Scientists are taking the temperature of ancient seas to discover how they’ve shaped global climate.In a study published in the journal Nature Geoscience, a Yale-led research team explored differences in ocean temperatures over the last 5 million years....
A Yale-led study urges scientists to move their focus from species extinction to species rarity in order to recognize, and avoid, a mass extinction in the modern world.
Writing in the journal Nature the week of Dec. 16, Yale’s Pincelli Hull and colleagues...
The search for endangered species is leading scientists to an unexpected place for information — the clouds that shift and swirl around the planet.In a new study, researchers from Yale and the University at Buffalo (UB) say that satellite data about...
A Yale University study says global climate models have significantly underestimated how much the Earth’s surface temperature will rise if greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase as expected.
Yale scientists looked at a number of global climate...
