Clouds less climate-sensitive than assumed
Airborne campaign solves parts of the riddle of clouds. In a major field campaign in 2020, Dr. Raphaela Vogel who is now at Universität Hamburg’s Center for Earth System Research…
Symmetry-protected Majorana edge modes produced on Google’s quantum computer
Researchers at Google Quantum AI have produced quantum states that are resilient to decoherence that typically plagues quantum computers. Physicists at Google Quantum AI have used their quantum computer to…
Strongest Arctic cyclone on record led to surprising loss of sea ice
A warming climate is causing a decline in sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, where loss of sea ice has important ecological, economic and climate impacts. On top of this…
Fertilizing the ocean to store carbon dioxide
Iron-based fertilizer, engineered into nanoparticles, could help store excess carbon dioxide in the ocean. The urgent need to remove excess carbon dioxide from Earth’s environment could include enlisting some of…
Obscure heat transfer behaviors
Discovery shows heat movement slowing down under extreme pressure instead of speeding up. UCLA researchers and their colleagues have discovered a new physics principle governing how heat transfers through materials,…
Bioreactor keeps cell culture conditions under control
Laboratory parameters maintained at physiologically relevant levels allow for more robust experiments with human cells. A cell-culturing technique developed by KAUST scientists helps to create biological conditions that more closely…
