Low growth in global carbon emissions continue for third successive year. 

A new paper in Nature communications explains why some climate processes are more effective than others at warming/cooling the Earth. By accounting for these differences we can more accurately determine the most important drivers of climate change in sensitive regions like the Arctic.

Observations from the last fifty years have shown that the nights have been warming much faster than the days. Analysis of the causes of this more rapid warming at night shows that this is likely to continue in the coming decades.

Recent summer temperatures in Europe are likely the warmest of the last two millennia, a new study shows. 

Will carbon uptake increase or decrease due to global warming? A new model experiment shows that uncertainties in modelled biological production makes the answer unclear.
