According to a recent study published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications, the vibrant color is caused by microscopic algae blooming across the surface of the snow. Using satellite data and fieldwork observations, a team of researchers at the University of Cambridge and the British Antarctic Survey have created the first large-scale map of the green algae and predicted the future spread of the bizarre snow.

New research challenges idea that ocean acidification affects fish behavior
A decade-long study led by comparative physiologist Timothy Clark at Deakin University in Geelong, Australia has challenged the long-held notion among marine biologists that rising levels of ocean acidification will disturb fish behavior. The research analysed individuals belonging to six distinct reef species and found no change in behavior for levels of acidification consistent with climate models for this century.

Wind speeds are rising, making wind power more viable
According to a new study, wind speeds have risen dramatically all over the world over the course of the last ten years. Researchers claim that wind speeds will only continue to increase and this is expected to benefit wind turbines. Even a small increase in wind speed can increase power generation by a lot.
