Telescopic images often capture traces of gases that may indicate life and habitable planets. But findings from a new CIRES-led study challenge this idea.

In July, Denver and the northern Front Range failed to meet the national air quality standards for ozone amid a nine-day streak of ozone pollution alerts. Lindsey Anderson, a CU Boulder atmospheric chemist, offers her perspective on why this is important.

A new CU Boulder study has found disproportionate effects of temperature shifts on an icy glacier layer.

CIRES researchers have authored a new study that measures the time between storms to better understand soil moisture and how this relates to floods.

CU Boulder's Tribal Climate Leaders Program supports students in bringing science home to their reservations and communities.

An engineer, a graduate student and three research scientists are in Greenland braving extreme cold and blustery winds as they install 25 instruments to observe changes in the ice sheet-atmosphere system during the summer melt season.

For the first time in the field, CIRES-led research shows that ice shelves don’t just buckle under the weight of meltwater lakes—they fracture.

The Colorado River’s future may be a little brighter than expected, according to a new modeling study from CIRES researchers. Warming temperatures have raised doubts the river could recover. But the new study paints a fuller picture.

A new CU Boulder study finds microbes in soil may influence the flavor of mustard seeds, adding to our understanding of the many ways soil microbes can influence plants.

A new paper co-authored by CU Boulder professors lays out a blueprint for mandating indoor air quality standards for public buildings.
