An analysis of the melt situation on the Central-Western Greenland ice sheet reveals clear signs of tipping. Data from the Jakobshavn drainage basin of the…
Machine learning model combines timing and weather data. A branch of artificial intelligence (AI), called machine learning, can accurately predict the risk of an out…
Inspired by nature, researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), along with collaborators from Washington State University, created a novel material capable of capturing light…
Plant disease surveillance, detection can preserve food security. Plant diseases don’t stop at a nation’s borders and miles of oceans don’t prevent their spread, either….
Crystallizing salts can grow “legs,” then tip over and fall away, potentially helping to prevent fouling of metal surfaces, researchers find. About a quarter of…
One subnetwork constructs imagined scenarios, while the other evaluates them. Two components of imagination — constructing and evaluating imagined scenarios — rely on separate subnetworks…
The first-ever discovery of an extraterrestrial radioactive isotope on Earth has scientists rethinking the origins of the elements on our planet. The tiny traces of plutonium-244…
Washington State University researchers have developed an innovative way to convert plastics to ingredients for jet fuel and other valuable products, making it easier and…
A black hole permanently scrambles information that can’t be recovered with any quantum machine learning algorithm, shedding new light on the classic Hayden-Preskill thought experiment….
Have you ever worn a dark T-shirt on a sunny day and felt the fabric warm in the Sun’s rays? Most of us know dark…
Doctors often recommend Omega-3s to help patients lower their cholesterol and improve heart health. Those Omega-3s can come from fatty fish like salmon and mackerel,…
Upcoming Solar System exploration missions will search for extraterrestrial (ET) life, but ET life may not be like Earth life; a new mass spectrometry analysis…
Researchers detected non-negligible interactions between technologically intriguing 2D materials and the substrates that physically support them. Atomically thin layers are of great technological interest because…
MAROON-X instrument built by University of Chicago team measures its first planet. In the past two decades, scientists have discovered more and more planets orbiting…
A study published in the scientific journal Addiction today (May 17, 2021) provides the most comprehensive evidence to date of the association between recreational cannabis…
Study tests viability of 100-year old patented device by inventor. A valve invented by engineer Nikola Tesla a century ago is not only more functional…
Scientists have proposed the first steps towards a united global plan to save our oceans, for the sake of human health. An interdisciplinary European collaboration…
