Alexander Robel leads a new study projecting that warm seawater — seeping under certain glaciers — could eventually lead to future sea level rise that’s double that of existing estimates, with new findings published in The Cryosphere.
As we celebrate the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG) Action and Awareness Week, School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences’ Élise Beaudin and Annalisa Bracco share their work on climate and marine heat waves at Dubai's World Expo.
In her senior year in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Devon Robinson joined fellow students in writing and illustrating a children's book about the deep ocean. Now, their class project is an e-book with NOAA's RESTORE program.
Georgia Tech's Samer Naif co-authors study showing streams of heated rocks called mantle plumes probably play a role in creating a slippery base for tectonic plates.
A climate scientist and professor, Cobb will depart Georgia Tech to lead IBES, an academic hub for scholars exploring the interactions between natural, human, and social systems.
ScienceMatters, the podcast of the College of Sciences, brings more tales of curiosity and discovery. Season 2 is now live at sciencematters.gatech.edu.
The Colleges of Sciences and Engineering are pleased to announce the appointment of Joseph Montoya, professor in Biological Sciences, to the position of director of the Interdisciplinary Ph.D. Program in Ocean Science and Engineering at Georgia Tech.
A team of international scientists will study how the Asian summer monsoon — one of the largest and most important meteorological patterns in the world — affects atmospheric chemistry and global climate.
Antarctic supraglacial lakes have been linked to ice-shelf collapse and acceleration of inland ice flow. A new study shows lake area and volume vary substantially from year-to-year around the East Antarctic Ice Sheet and between ice shelves.
Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Assistant Professor Frances Rivera-Hernández will help develop smarter autonomous rovers and robotics for the Moon and Mars, and hunt for chemical signs of life beyond Earth.
