A new report describes how researchers analyzed a major 2011 Texas wildfire using a scientifically based post-fire data collection approach, a system they believe will lead to improved defensive measures and strategies for significantly reducing structural damage and property loss.>
We all have some idea how solar panels work by now; a photovoltaic cell gets bombarded by photons from the sun, which knocks loose electrons that flow as electricity, hopefully while wasting as little energy in the form of heat as possible.Beyond that, it's a topic of research in order to try and create panels that>
New work suggests Earth's ancient magnetic field was significantly different than the present day field, originating from several poles rather than the familiar two.
Earth generates a strong magnetic field extending from the core out into space that shields the atmosphere and deflects harmful high-energy particles>
In older countries it has become common for young people to live with their parents until, and sometimes well after, they get married. A new study finds that some parts of the animal kingdom don't even stop growing until what it middle age for humans. An analysis of 17 tyrannosaurus rex specimens, from early>
If you're anything more than an infrequent stumbler to Science 2.0, then you will probably have noticed - if not, read - Helen's article on geomagnetic polarity reversals, which until recently has been floating in the top articles list.Whilst it's a gallant attempt to understand the ins and outs of an incredibly complex>
We know some glaciers are growing and we know some glaciers are receding. What we did not know until recently is how many glaciers there are, where they are, and what their extents and volumes are.That has changed - for the first time reliable calculations of the future development of glaciers and their contributions>
