A new paper finds more radar signals suggesting the presence of subsurface ‘lakes,’ but many are in areas too cold for water to remain liquid….
Precipitation totals and lake levels are among the worst they have been since the 1970s. Just four years after emerging from a severe multi-year drought, California…
Fresh water is scarce in many parts of the world and must be obtained at great expense. Communities near the ocean can desalinate seawater for…
A study of woodland ecosystems that provide habitat for rare and endangered species along streams and rivers throughout California reveals that some of these ecologically…

For many engineers and scientists, nature is the world’s greatest muse. They seek to better understand natural processes that have evolved over millions of years,…
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…
Much of Mars’ ancient water was buried in the planet’s crust, not lost to space. Several oceans’ worth of ancient water may reside in minerals…
