Microplastics have been found in environments around the world, but little is known about how they move through the air. New CIRES-led research demonstrates a new method for sampling microplastics in the atmosphere using an uncrewed aerial system (UAS).

Fire risk to structures in the U.S. will almost triple by mid-century if we don’t act on climate change, manage vegetation, & transform how we build and adapt for fire, according to new work led by CIRES' Virginia Iglesias. @colorado.edu @earthlabcu.bsky.social

El Niño rains bring drought relief to the Rocky Mountains, destructive floods to the Four Corners
Southwest Colorado is no longer in drought conditions, but communities are struggling with the damage brought by severe flooding events in October.

When light refracts & reflects though ice crystals in the Arctic atmosphere, a bright ring of light can form around the sun.

In 2024, a "sun halo" appeared above a team — including CIRES scientists Matthew Shupe & Michael Gallagher — installing equipment on the Greenland Ice Sheet

Basic wildfire protections add less than 1% to new-home construction costs, CU Boulder study finds
As wildfires threaten more communities across the West, new research suggests some basic changes to how homes are built could make them safer without significantly increasing the price tag.
