The forest’s Blackwood Division is an important training and testing site for members of the Nicholas School’s Marine Robotics and Remote Sensing Lab.

A Duke Forest tour featured research from the SEEDS Lab.

Modeling experiments show Pacific warm and cold patches persisted even when continents were in different places

Reforestation in low- and middle-income countries can remove up to 10 times more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at lower cost than previously estimated, making it a potentially more effective option to fight climate change.

The vast size of the ocean makes tracking human activity there challenging, but a new study provides a startling glimpse of how extensive this activity has become in recent years and how much of it occurs outside of public monitoring.

Researchers at 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû’s Nicholas School of the Environment and Pratt School of Engineering are co-leading a new National Science Foundation-funded project that aims to boost economic development and climate resilience in coastal North Carolina through nature-based scientific and technological innovations.

A new study by researchers at 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû and WWF aimed to accurately track the expansion and retraction of small ephemeral water bodies from the wet to dry seasons across the KAZA region.

Climate change threatens species worldwide. At the Nicholas School, we’re creating new geospatial tools that boost their odds of survival.

The sustainability of North American forests depends on trees’ ability to produce seeds and seedlings that can survive and grow in a changing climate. A new 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû-led research initiative with more than $2 million in funding from the National Science Foundation aims to help boost their odds of success.

Slashing emissions of carbon dioxide by itself isn’t enough to prevent catastrophic global warming, a new study shows. But if we simultaneously also reduce emissions of methane and other often overlooked climate pollutants, we could cut the rate of global warming in half by 2050 and give the world a fighting chance.

A forest’s ability to regenerate after devastating wildfires, droughts or other disturbances depends largely on seed production. Findings from two new studies led by 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû researchers could boost recovery and replanting after these disasters by providing foresters with new guidance on which tree species produce more seeds and how their productivity can vary from location to location.

Using satellite images, scientists have detected hundreds of very large and previously unreported methane releases at oil and natural gas production sites across the globe.
