Scientists at EPFL have developed a scalable method to produce porous graphene membranes that efficiently separate carbon dioxide.

Extreme cosmic events such as colliding black holes or the explosions of stars can cause ripples in spacetime, so-called gravitational waves. 

Scientists estimate that tweaking some burn conditions could cut cancer risks from smoke exposure by over 50%.

O‘ahu’s sandy beaches are at risk. New research from the Coastal Research Collaborative (CRC) at the University of Hawai‘i (UH) at Mānoa determined that 81% of O‘ahu’s coastline could experience erosion by 2100, with 40% of this loss happening by 2030. 

When you’re on a sandy beach or the banks of a river, transformed by rolling waves or slightly still waters, it’s likely you’re not thinking about what happens just beneath the surface, where dirt and pollution are swirling and traveling through to new destinations.

As coral bleaching and deaths become more widespread globally, experts are re-evaluating the benefits of restoration missions to reverse damage and protect some of the world’s most species-rich ecosystems.

New research will model the risks and impact of using solar radiation modification (SRM) to build understanding of the radical process and address evidence gaps. 

Waters off the British Isles sprang to life with colorful swirls in early April 2025.
