Earth’s major sand seas are populated by giant sand dunes, evolved over tens of thousands of years. We perform a global analysis of the topography of these giant dunes, and their associated atmospheric forcings and geologic constraints, and we perform numerical experiments to gain insight on te...

That is why Earth is spherical and in fact so smooth and spherical, bulging at the equator. A ball of molten rock held together by its own gravity, which also keeps the water and atmosphere in place and under pressure, all wobbling like a giant rock jelly beach ball in the varying gravi...

Some claim that life can only develop under perfect circumstances, and Earth is perhaps the only example of this. Other scientists object to this claim, and point out that even on Earth, life can find a way under the most extreme circumstances. Some people believe that aliens have already ...
If someone falls overboard on a ship, their survival depends on how quickly they are noticed. Ideally, someone on the ship sees the person fall and immediately sounds theMan Overboard!Alarm. They should then keep an eye on the person in the water to track their movements. ...
(Agriculture & Life Sciences, not Letters & Science; confusing divisions!) at the UW. I got some early research experience in that first college: I tried my hand at raising colonies of Indian mealmoths (Plodia interpunctella; I can still identify them!) and their parasitoid wasps. At that ...
While clearly, it hits the main beats of the prompt, it’s not a particularly convincing scene, and it falls firmly in the uncanny valley. The man’s three hands, the shark that comes together in multiple parts at an unconvincing scale, the Exorcist-esque head swivel and shout from ...
Information Technology is a field that manages and processes information for large-scale organizations or companies. Information technology is now synonymous with any form of digital communications and technologies. Everything falls under the grasp of Information Technology, from checking emails to running...
Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation in which Earth spins in the opposite direction - clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and geography on Earth, Live Science reported. As Earth spins in a c...
