Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate of the Anthropocene | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
The Atmospheric Chemistry and Climate of the Anthropocene research group investigates key processes and drivers in the atmosphere and climate system, and predicts present-day and future changes in climate, atmospheric composition and air quality.
Inaugural Lecture: What are the physical rules that govern our complex irreversible world?
Statistical physicists want to know how structures and patterns in complex systems emerge from the interactions between component parts. Particularly vexing are the large-scale consequences of irreversible driving at the microscopic scale. This is

Tropical rainforest shifts from carbon sink to source | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
Tropical rainforests in Australia are the first in the world to contribute more carbon to the atmosphere than they extract, a new study suggests.
Well-publicised polar geoengineering ideas will not help and could harm, warn experts | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
Five well-publicised polar geoengineering ideas are highly unlikely to help the polar regions and could harm ecosystems, communities, international relations, and our chances of reaching net zero by 2050.
Research uncovers last-surviving dinosaurs in New Mexico | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
Professor Steve Brusatte, from the University of Edinburgh’s School of GeoSciences, is part of an international team that has uncovered evidence of the last-surviving dinosaurs in what is now New Mexico. The study, published in Science, reshapes
New renewable energy spinout SeaWarm launches with £550k | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
University of Edinburgh spinout SeaWarm has secured £550,000 in funding to roll out its renewable heating system across Scotland’s communities.
AI quake tools forecast aftershock risk in seconds, study shows | School of GeoSciences | GeoSciences
Earthquake forecasting tools powered by AI can forecast the risk of aftershocks seconds after the initial tremor, a study suggests.
Higgs Hour with Sergey Koposov: 'Hyper-velocity stars as probes of the super-massive black hole in the Galactic centre'
Hyper-velocity stars are interesting objects that were first theoretically proposed by Richard Hills as products of interaction of a binary star and a supermassive black hole, that leads to the star being ejected out the galaxy with the speed of
