Scientists in a recent breakthrough have discovered a paradigm shift in polar bears’ genetics, helping them to adapt to disastrous realities of climate change. Owing to human-caused global warming, ...

With climate change steadily dismantling the icy habitat essential to their existence, new research suggests polar bears are rapidly rewiring their own genetics in a bid to survive. The species is ...

Scientists say bears in southern Greenland differ genetically to those in the north, suggesting they could adjust Changes in polar bear DNA that could help the animals adapt to warmer climates have ...

Do you believe in Santa? If not, you might find yourself on a train heading toward the North Pole in order to help you believe, or this might just sound like the plot of "The Polar Express" to you.

New research reveals a link between rising temperatures and changes in polar bear DNA, which may be helping them adapt and survive in increasingly challenging environments. The study by scientists at ...

A polar vortex system is expected to bring two or more cold waves to Florida this week. Temperatures in North Florida could drop into the upper 20s, with a chance of frost or freeze. Central and South ...

A map of the polar vortex that is bringing frigid temperatures to parts of the U.S. (AccuWeather) The first of three rounds of cold Arctic air from a shifting polar vortex has sent temperatures ...

The wall that keeps cold air contained in the Arctic is called the polar vortex. There's been a "displacement" in the polar vortex, which allows Arctic air to escape to the south. An "arctic frontal ...

The summer crowds are long gone on Cape Cod. The beaches across Massachusetts are empty. Even the birds have flown south. But Buzzards Bay still has a story to tell, because this time of year, it ...

The polar vortex is expected to send three waves of Arctic air into the U.S. through mid-December. Despite the cold blasts, current forecasts do not predict significant snow for most of Mississippi.

In this video, we explore line integrals in polar coordinates, a key concept in mathematical physics. I’ll guide you through how to set up and evaluate line integrals in polar systems, including ...
