Phys.org / Measuring iron in motion at Earth-core conditions
It was a journey to the center of the Earth, if only for the briefest of moments. But rather than tunneling thousands of miles from Earth's surface, researchers from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and several ...
Phys.org / A hotter climate may lead to more same-sex mounting in corpse-eating beetles
New research suggests that heat stress increases the occurrence of same-sex sexual interactions between male burying beetles—but also that a surprising number of male–male encounters occur under control conditions. This ongoing ...
Medical Xpress / Electric fields could organize neural activity trial by trial during memory tasks
It's a fact of life that the electrical activity of neurons will vary during the same task, even when the ultimate outcome is the same. A new study shows that a lot of ongoing fluctuations in the brain's activity can be explained ...
Tech Xplore / Hydrogen: Clean fuel of the future—if we can find a cheap and clean way to ship it
Many experts refer to hydrogen as "the fuel of the future." It is expected to help decarbonize the global economy in two main ways: Burning it or feeding it into a fuel cell produces storable energy with no carbon emissions, ...
Phys.org / Antarctic ozone loss drove unexpected Southern Ocean cooling, climate model shows
The Southern Ocean has long stood out as an oddity in the global climate system. While most of the planet's surface oceans have warmed in response to rising greenhouse gases, waters circling Antarctica showed an unexpected ...
Phys.org / Scavenger animals are the missing link in Australia's bird flu response. Three experts explain
Australia is racing to contain the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), which is now believed to have infected seven seabirds.
Tech Xplore / New AI research improves how computers interpret the world
For artificial intelligence tools that rely on interpreting data from the real world, both speed and accuracy are critically important. Researchers at the University of Saskatchewan (USask) have developed a tool to make AI ...
