Future Supercontinent Will Be Inhospitable for Mammals - Eos Pangea returns in 250 million years, and itโ€™s not looking good for us.

It sounds like something from a sci-fi movie: Continents collide and volcanoes erupt. Toxic gases fill the air. The planet becomes a hot desert devoid of life. But that scenario could predict Earth in several million years as the continents merge into Pangea Ultima.

Machine learning helps scientists detect glacial lake outburst floods in Greenland New method developed at CIRES helps glaciologists understand how and when these climate hazards occur

Greenland is home to more than 3,000 ice marginal lakes: pools of meltwater trapped by glaciers that have dammed river valleys or depressions. Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) happen when those dams break and release catastrophic floods of meltwater.
