Much of our modern technology relies on the use of rare earth elements (REEs), and a key to finding more of them is to understand the processes that concentrate them in the Earth’s crust.

A Binghamton student researcher has been using drones to check crop stress in upstate New York, working with local farmers to identify problems before the plants cannot recover.

More than 190 top international scientists, led by Professor Mark Sutton of the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH), are calling on the world to take urgent action on nitrogen pollution.

By hoarding water underground, vegetation will help saturate soil, boosting rain runoff.

A University of Idaho-led team of researchers found that experimental fences reduced the number of times elephants left Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park to raid nearby crops by 80-95%.
