3D Radar Scan Provides Clues About Threats to Iconic Alaskan Glacier
Mapping a large coastal glacier in Alaska revealed that its bulk sits below sea level and is undercut by channels, making it vulnerable to accelerated melting in an already deteriorating coastal habitat.
Quantum Sensing in Outer Space
New NASA-funded research will build next-gen tech to better measure climate.
Discovery of Novel Gene to Aid Breeding of Climate Resilient Crops
Researchers have revealed for the first time how a key gene in plants allows them to use their energy more efficiently, enabling them to grow more roots and capture more water and nutrients.
Giant Underwater Waves Affect the Ocean’s Ability to Store Carbon
Underwater waves deep below the ocean’s surface – some as tall as 500 metres – play an important role in how the ocean stores heat and carbon, according to new research.
How Can We Tackle the Biggest Challenges? Ask a Plant
Without plants, we’d have no air to breathe or food to eat, yet plant science lingers in the shadowy wings while other fields take center stage.
