For decades, Arctic sea ice has been melting earlier in spring and freezing later in fall, extending the melt season and contributing to widespread ice loss.

Storing energy as heat is a proven pathway to address the challenge solar power faces when it’s dark or cloudy outside by enabling the capture, storage and on-demand release of thermal energy.

As a liquid that is easily stored and transported, ammonia (NH3) is an attractive carrier for hydrogen, which is used in fuel cells, semiconductor manufacturing, chemical processing, and other applications.

Extreme weather events, such as floods, droughts and torrential rains, affect the water quality in lakes, rivers and coastal areas.

Southern California is emerging from yet another round of wildfires just as the wildfire season gets underway.

Artificial intelligence is transforming research, accelerating discovery and helping scientists tackle increasingly complex challenges.

When people hear that I am completing my doctorate in agricultural and biological engineering at UF, they often assume my work is confined to farmland, crop yields and tractors.

During sunny and sweltering summer days, much relief comes from sweat.

Oxygen provides the driving force for many vital chemical reactions. Two well-known examples include respiration, the process that allows living things to break down food to release its energy, and combustion, reactions that produce heat and light.

A study led by Newcastle University involving the community in Lunana, Bhutan, found that while there was a high awareness of the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) among people in Lunana - much of it as a result of ongoing government communications and outreach work - many residents were not sufficiently prepared to respond quickly and safely when warnings occurred.
