Shrinking Reservoirs in Catalonia
The Catalonia region of Spain is experiencing a long-term drought, which has shrunk reservoirs and led to water restrictions.
Large Geomagnetic Storm Hits Earth
On April 21, 2023, a coronal mass ejection (CME) erupted from the sun, spewing out a burst of plasma that raced toward Earth at nearly two million miles per hour and generated a severe geomagnetic storm (level 4 out of 5 on NOAA’s space weather G- scale) at 3:26 p.m. EDT on April 23.
What Happens in the Tropics Can Reach the Arctic and Set Up Extreme Precipitation Events
In April 2016, a warm front approached southwest Greenland, causing air temperatures in the capital city of Nuuk and the surrounding area to increase rapidly.
How Solid Air Can Spur Sustainable Development
The green hydrogen economy is a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. However, one of the challenges of constructing a global hydrogen economy is hydrogen transportation by sea. A new paper proposes solid air as a medium for recycling cold energy across the hydrogen liquefaction supply chain.
Machine Learning Helps Scientists Identify the Environmental Preferences of Microbes
Researchers have figured out a way to predict bacteria’s environmental pH preferences from a quick look at their genomes, using machine learning.
