Studying ancient ocean temperatures is crucial for understanding past climate conditions and predicting future climate trends. One common method used to reconstruct these temperatures is by analyzing the ratio of different oxygen isotopes in calcium carbonate remains of fossils. However, this approach is not without its challenges, as biological processes known as “vital effects” can

Interbasin water transfers play a crucial role in transporting water across vast geographical areas in the U.S. West. The recent research published in the journal Nature Water sheds light on the energy-related greenhouse gas emissions associated with these projects, with two key projects in Arizona and California contributing to a majority of the emissions. The
