Study shows that temperature changes have a smaller effect on transmission than policy interventions like lockdowns and social distancing.
Results for "climate change"
The weather is getting weirder at our poles
New research suggests an increase in lightning strikes and liquid precipitation, which will affect sea level and penguin colonies.
What’s so special about rivers that run dry?
As an increasing global population moves into areas where non-perennial rivers are common, we need to understand how human water needs impact when, where, and how much these rivers flow.
Vaccinating the most vulnerable first may not have the greatest impact on COVID-19, new model suggests
A new simulator can accurately model COVID-19 and the effects of different mitigation strategies, which researchers say could help guide new policies to combat the pandemic.
Chimie douce: Green hydrogen
A low temperature water-splitting protocol uses microwave power in lieu of concentrated solar energy.
Compressed air cars for urban transportation
Researchers have increased the efficiency of compressed air cars with the aid of phase change materials for heat recovery, making them a viable carbon-free alternative for future passenger cars.
