What Would Earth’s Temperature Be Like Without an Atmosphere?
Right now, the temperature of the Earth is pretty much perfect for humans, at around 13.9 degrees Celsius, or 57 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pink Dye Experiment to Reveal Mysteries of Coastal Ocean Dynamics
An experiment at a San Diego beach is turning the seawater pink, temporarily, in the name of science.
New Multidisciplinary Project Will Help Forecast Where and When Deadly Disease Outbreaks Are Likely to Occur
DART (Dengue Advanced Readiness Tools), a new project led by Oxford University, has received funding from Wellcome to use climate data to better predict and prepare for infectious diseases outbreaks.
Looking Beyond Microplastics, Oregon State Researchers Find That Cotton and Synthetic Microfibers Impact Behavior and Growth of Aquatic Organisms
While microplastics have received significant attention in recent years for their negative environmental impacts, a new study from Oregon State University scientists found microfibers from synthetic materials as well as cotton impacted the behavior and growth of water organisms.
Physicists observe rare resonance in molecules for the first time
If she hits just the right pitch, a singer can shatter a wine glass. The reason is resonance. While the glass may vibrate slightly in response to most acoustic tones, a pitch that resonates with the material’s own natural frequency can send its vibrations into overdrive, causing the glass to shatter.
