A new study by researchers at the University of South Florida and Florida Atlantic University has demonstrated that a DNA sequencing tool can rapidly identify harmful algae in coastal waters, offering a new approach for monitoring ...
Every time a computer stores or erases information, it uses energy. The amount is tiny for a single operation, but those operations happen billions of times every second. For decades, scientists have wondered just how little ...
Quantum information systems could one day shape everyday life through faster computing, sharper sensing and more secure communication. A new result from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and ...
Like the folds in crumpled sheets or the footprints on recently trodden sand, certain materials mark their histories. Now, Yale researchers show that networks of flowing water and other fluids can store their own memories—similar ...
A hurricane does not have to make a direct hit to affect the Chesapeake Bay. Even from out at sea, a hurricane's winds, waves and rising tides can cause major flooding.
AI ethics has come under increasing criticism. Critics argue that while companies publish guidelines for AI development and use, the AI systems themselves often remain problematic. Researchers from the University of Bayreuth, ...
In 2021, Texas suffered the worst energy infrastructure failure in state history, following three severe winter storms in February. At least 246 people were killed as a result of the disruptions, which led to food, water, ...
Nonprofit organizations have historically struggled with underfunding, scarce resources and even identifying what physical, human, social and financial capital they already have. But what if there were an easy way they could ...
Understanding and controlling phase transitions are fundamental to physics and central to many technological revolutions. There is currently strong interest in materials with coupled structural and electronic phase transitions, ...
Until now, the alien white-hot worlds of exoplanets have been depicted as circular, but new research has revealed the true shape of their atmospheres to be a deformed sphere rather than a perfect circle.
