University at Albany chemists have created a new high-energy compound that could revolutionize rocket fuel and make space flights more efficient. 

Obesity has long been acknowledged as a risk factor for a wide range of diseases, but a more precise link between obesity and Alzheimer’s disease has remained a mystery – until now.

A new study by researchers at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre reveals that the Amazon rainforest has just undergone its most devastating forest fire season in over two decades, which triggered record-breaking carbon emissions and exposed the region’s growing ecological fragility despite a slowing trend in deforestation. 

A University of Arizona research team will receive nearly $2.7 million from the NIH's Common Fund Venture Program to advance next-generation imaging technologies that allow deeper, clearer views inside the body without the need for invasive procedures.

A new study led by scientists at the University of Arizona used historical tree-ring data to study a key driver for widespread, extreme summer weather events: locked jet stream wave patterns that are often preceded by winter La Niña conditions in the Pacific.

Improved carbon-cement supercapacitors could turn the concrete around us into massive energy storage systems.

New suite of space weather forecasting models focuses on how space weather can influence the thermosphere and ionosphere here on Earth.

Tokamaks are machines that are meant to hold and harness the power of the sun.

Ammonia is one of the most widely produced chemicals in the world, used mostly as fertilizer, but also for the production of some plastics, textiles, and other applications.

Scientists can now receive near-real-time alerts about the world’s lands as their surfaces change, thanks to a new satellite-based monitoring system described today in Nature Communications.
