Hypothesis Testing in Hydrology: Why Falsification of Models is Still a Great Idea
If we consider models as hypotheses about how the hydrology is working, then testing models as hypotheses is one way of doing science in the inexact sciences.
“Golden Age” of Molecular Microbiology: Understanding Freshwater Microbial Communities
In the “golden age” of molecular microbiology, modern molecular tools enable researchers to understand freshwater microbial communities in unprecedented detail by identifying and enumerating them, as well as determining their activity in the environment.

Thermoelectric Material for Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation [Video]
Researchers from Cranfield University and Queen Mary University of London report the use of a thermoelectric material as a catalyst support and promotor for carbon dioxide hydrogenation. Using a specially designed reactor chamber, they achieve simultaneous thermoelectric energy harvesting and catalysis.
A Salt Water Battery
Inexpensive and stable: Water could form the basis for future particularly inexpensive rechargeable batteries.
Cheers: Scientists Turn Beer into Fuel
Chemists at the University of Bristol have made the first steps towards making sustainable petrol using beer as a key ingredient.
