The study analyzed weather and climate models to assess how a warmer atmosphere is increasing the likelihood of fire-prone weather. It revealed that the extreme conditions driving the recent fires in Los Angeles are now expected to occur once every 17 years, compared to once every 23 years without climate change.

A look back at the success of the UC PRIME medical education model, seen through the experiences of PRIME alums.

A new attribution analysis found that climate heating caused by burning fossil fuels significantly increased the likelihood of extreme fire conditions.

WASHINGTON — Human-caused climate change increased the likelihood and intensity of the hot, dry and windy conditions that fanned the flames of the recent devastating Southern California wildfires, a s

Global warming caused mainly by burning of fossil fuels made the hot, dry and windy conditions that drove the recent deadly fires around Los Angeles about 35 times more likely to occur, an international team of scientists concluded in a rapid attribution analysis released Tuesday.

A new study finds that the region's extremely dry and hot conditions were about 35 percent more likely because of climate change.

The hot, dry, and windy conditions that drove the fires were about 35% more likely due to warming caused primarily by the burning of oil, gas, and coal, said the new analysis by 32 climate scientists

Extreme conditions helped fuel the fast-moving fires that destroyed thousands of homes. Scientists are working to figure out how climate change played a role in the disaster.

California students have the opportunity to win thousands in college scholarships. The Pacific Gas and Electric Corporation Foundation recently announced it would award up to $600,000 in financial aid in 2025 to California students seeking higher education, according to a news release.

Some students work multiple jobs and give up extracurricular activities to supplement their financial aid. Many say it’s worth it.

If you’re against mass deportations and want to see some sort of amnesty, it’s easy to feel deflated right now and even easier to curse Orange County for its past.

The hospital is the 56th in California, and is among fewer than 10% nationwide, to be recognized for patient care by the American Nurses Credentialing Center.
