Forests managed by timber companies were more likely to exhibit the conditions that megafires love—dense stands of regularly spaced trees with continuous vegetation connecting the understory to the canopy.

Chemical engineering student’s research extracts rare earth minerals from phosphogypsum — manmade lakes of radioactive, toxic waste.

Researchers at Penn State develop a wearable sensor that can accurately measure the chloride ion levels of sweat in real time.

Heat waves are becoming more common, severe and long-lasting.
