Last month, three MIT materials scientists and their colleagues published a paper describing a new artificial-intelligence system that can pore through scientific papers and extract “recipes” for producing particular types of materials.

Climate Change Has Doubled Snowfall Around North America's Highest Peak
The amount of snow falling in Alaska’s Denali National Park, home to North America’s tallest mountain, has more than doubled over the past 150 years, according to a new study.
Continued Emissions May Cause Global North-to-South Shift in Wind Power By End of Century
In the next century, wind resources may decrease in many regions of the Northern Hemisphere and could sharply increase in some hotspot regions down south, according to a study by University of Colorado Boulder researchers. The first-of-its-kind study predicting how global wind power may shift with climate change appears today in Nature Geoscience.
Las emisiones continuas pueden provocar un cambio global de norte a sur en la energía eólica para finales de siglo
En el próximo siglo los recursos eólicos podrían disminuir en muchas regiones del hemisferio norte y podrían aumentar drásticamente en algunas regiones de puntos críticos del sur, según un estudio realizado por investigadores de la Universidad de Colorado en Boulder. El primer estudio de este tipo que predice cómo la energía eólica mundial puede cambiar con el cambio climático aparece hoy en Nature Geoscience.
Study opens window on meltwater from icebergs
Surface water conditions in Greenland’s fjords and in the northern Atlantic Ocean are dictated by what’s going on deep below the surface next to the massive Greenland Ice Sheet, UO-led research has found.
Breakaway icebergs, according to research findings appearing online Dec. 4 ahead of publication in the journal Nature Geoscience, are the biggest source of freshwater entering the ocean in key areas around Greenland. And the timing and location of meltwater are important factors that should be included in ocean modeling, report the paper’s six co-authors.
Un equipo de Texas A & M crea modelos para predecir las sequías
Los modelos de computadora que predicen las sequías no están hechos solo para que los científicos puedan decir "te lo dije" cuando tu lago favorito se agote. Desde la agricultura hasta la infraestructura y el turismo, los principales sectores de la economía necesitan información sobre las condiciones climáticas que se avecinan.
