The orange excrement of the critically endangered North Atlantic right whales — so called because they were once seen as the right ones to hunt — can give researchers a window into their health.

Massachusetts' coastal communities were particularly hard hit, while Boston saw a record amount of snowfall in one day. We examine long-term concerns over flooding, erosion and climate change.

The orange excrement of the critically endangered North Atlantic right whales — so called because they were once seen as the right ones to hunt — can give researchers a window into their health.

After a half century, a Cape Cod weather station is being demolished before it falls into the ocean. It's among many structures threatened by stronger storms and rising seas fueled by climate change.

North Atlantic right whales now grow about three feet shorter than they did 40 years ago. Research suggests a leading cause is the damage human activity inflicts on the critically endangered mammals.

A new study concludes that endangered right whales born today will end up smaller than adult whales in the past. Researchers say stress from getting caught in fishing gear stunts the mammals' growth

One of the main threats to the endangered North Atlantic right whale is lobster-fishing rope, but there is hope in new ropeless technology.

One of the main threats to the endangered North Atlantic right whale is lobster-fishing rope. A new ropeless technology could save both the whales and the lobster industry.

Massachusetts students and their teacher are identifying the people buried in nameless graves at a cemetery associated with a now-closed state school for disabled people.
