Nextrode project could revolutionise the way electrodes for Li-ion electric vehicle (EV) batteries are manufactured.

Moderate earthquakes triggered by oilfield hydraulic fracturing operations to extract hydrocarbons are rare.

Most years, they rise from the water and blanket unsuspecting communities.

NASA’s Aqua satellite provided forecasters at the National Hurricane Center with infrared data and cloud top temperature information for Tropical Storm Fernand as it was making landfall in northeastern Mexico. 

A new understanding of how an important methane-producing microorganism creates methane and carbon dioxide could eventually allow researchers to manipulate how much of these important greenhouse gases escape into the atmosphere.

Liquid crystals are widely used in technologies such as displays, which manipulate their orientation to display colors across the spectrum.

NASA’s Terra satellite provided an infrared view and temperature analysis of Tropical Storm 14W’s cloud tops.

In recent years, wildfires in the western United States have occurred with increasing frequency and scale. Climate change scenarios in California predict prolonged periods of drought with potential for conditions even more amenable to wildfires.

With water scarcity a growing problem worldwide, University of California, Berkeley, researchers are close to producing a microwave-sized water harvester that will allow you to pull all the water you need directly from the air — even in the hot, dry desert.

In a remarkable evolutionary discovery, a team of scientists co-led by a Virginia Tech geoscientist has discovered what could be among the first trails made by animals on the surface of the Earth roughly a half-billion years ago.
