AI Model Aurora Ushers in a New Era of Climate Forecasting

A powerful new AI model trained on over a million hours of Earth system data is redefining climate forecasting. Aurora delivers faster, more accurate, and more accessible predictions—just when the world needs them most.

AI Misses the Storms It’s Never Seen

A new study shows that AI weather models can’t predict unprecedented disasters like Category 5 hurricanes—unless they’ve seen one before. Researchers are now blending AI with physics to fix that.

The Boulder That Moved: Uncovering a 7,000-Year-Old Tsunami’s Fury

A 1,200-tonne boulder hurled inland by a 50-metre wave in ancient Tonga has become a key to unlocking the Pacific’s tsunami past — and reshaping our approach to coastal risk.

Methane Feedback Loop in Arctic Wetlands Fuels Climate Peril

Arctic microbes are producing more methane as the region warms—fueling a climate feedback loop that may accelerate global heating faster than we can control it.

Mother’s Day Solar Storm Supercharged Earth’s Hidden Atmospheric Layers

The 2024 Mother’s Day solar storm didn’t just light up the skies—it triggered elusive metal clouds that could jam signals across the globe, Kyushu University scientists reveal.
