Warm water that seeps underneath can melt ice in way not yet included in models.
AI Shows How Field Crops Develop
Tool developed at the University of Bonn should enable yield forecasts, among other things, in the future.
Surprising Vortex Behind New Solar Cell and Lighting Materials
Metal-halide perovskites have quickly advanced in the last decade since their discovery as a semiconductor that outshines silicon in its conversion of light into electric current.
Groundwater Declines in the U.S. Southwest
Record snowfall in recent years has not been enough to offset long-term drying conditions and increasing groundwater demands in the U.S. Southwest, according to a new analysis of NASA satellite data.
Researchers Engineer AI Path To Prevent Power Outages
University of Texas at Dallas researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that could help electrical grids prevent power outages by automatically rerouting electricity in milliseconds.
First of Its Kind Detection Made in Striking New Webb Image
For the first time, a phenomenon astronomers have long hoped to directly image has been captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam).
CO2 Puts Heavier Stamp on Temperature Than Thought
A doubling of the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere could cause an increase in the average temperature on earth from 7 to even a maximum of 14 degrees.
Carbon dioxide’s heavy stamp on temperature: Doubling CO2 may mean 7 to 14 degree increase
A doubling of the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere could cause an increase in the average temperature on earth from 7 to even a maximum of 14 degrees. That is shown in the analysis of sediments from the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California.
How cells boost gene expression
The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA, non-coding RNA does not produce proteins -- yet it exists in large quantities. A research team has now discovered an important function of antisense RNA (asRNA): the researchers found that asRNA acts...
New study confirms forever chemicals are absorbed through human skin
A study of 17 commonly used synthetic 'forever chemicals' has shown that these toxic substances can readily be absorbed through human skin.
