Understanding whether lakes are fed predominantly by groundwater or rainwater is critical to managing our water resources in the face of droughts and shortages, new research has found.
Magnetic materials are in high demand. They're essential to the energy storage innovations on which electrification depends and to the robotics systems powering automation. They're also inside more familiar products, from ...
Weather forecasting is not easy. The truth is that predicting future weather conditions over broad, or even narrow, swaths of Earth's surface comes down to complex microphysical processes, and as College of Engineering Associate ...
Throughout their everyday lives, humans are typically required to make a wide range of decisions, which can impact their well-being, health, social connections, and finances. Understanding the human decision-making processes ...
Across much of Europe, the engines of economic growth are sputtering. In its latest global outlook, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) sharply downgraded its forecasts for the UK and Europe, warning that the continent ...
Some of the most encouraging results for reaction-enhancing catalysts come from one material in particular: tin (Sn). While Sn's overall utility as a catalyst is well-known, its underlying structure-performance relationship ...
Researchers have used machine learning to dramatically speed up the processing time when simulating galaxy evolution coupled with supernova explosion. This approach could help us understand the origins of our own galaxy, ...
Floods are some of the most devastating natural disasters communities in the United States face, causing billions of dollars of damage annually, according to the National Weather Service. A group, including several researchers ...
Researchers from more than 50 international institutions have launched Open Problems, a collaborative open-source platform to benchmark, improve, and run competitions for computational methods in single-cell genomics.
Figuring out the ages of stars is fundamental to understanding many areas of astronomy—yet, it remains a challenge since stellar ages can't be ascertained through observation alone. So, astronomers at the University of ...
