A new study shows that hybrids between black-capped and mountain chickadees are more likely to be found in places where humans have altered the landscape in some way.

Published only days before the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources' annual meeting, this evidence-based commentary published in Science notes that current levels of fishing, combined with climate change, are taking a concerning toll on this diverse ecosystem of global importance.

New research shows that a cold equatorial ocean current—which provides a buffer for the Galápagos Islands against an otherwise warming Pacific Ocean—has been getting stronger for decades. It's encouraging news, and another reason to safeguard this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Two Category 4 hurricanes made landfall on U.S. coastlines within two weeks of each other in September. Kris Karnauskas explains why hurricanes form when they do and why Fiona and Ian may not be the end of this season.

Five years after Maria, Hurricane Fiona exposes continued problems with Puerto Rico’s infrastructure. Fernando Rosario-Ortiz explains when the power goes out, so does access to clean water.

A grant from the Office of Naval Research in the U.S. Department of Defense will support five Denver-metro community colleges and two universities in an initiative to increase the number of community college students who pursue engineering careers—particularly those from underrepresented populations.

New research highlights how taming chronic, low-level inflammation through diet, exercise, rest and stress management could help fend off serious and lasting impacts of the virus.

A new Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder-led study documents how a durable plastic can be perpetually broken down and remade, without sacrificing its desired physical properties.

An annual experiment based out of Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder’s century-old Mountain Research Station aims to measure the effects of warming temperatures and faster snowmelt on alpine ecosystems by coating snowpack with thousands of pounds of black sand.

Across the country this summer, flooding has damaged national parks, cities and communities—and left hundreds of thousands of people without clean water in Jackson, Mississippi. Two Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder engineering experts discuss the state of our infrastructure and the impacts of climate change.
