First-of-its-kind study uses remote sensing to monitor plastic debris in rivers and lakes

Remote sensing creates a cost-effective solution to monitoring plastic pollution. A first-of-its-kind study from researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities shows how remote sensing can help monitor and…

Hyperspectral imaging lidar system achieves remote plastic identification

New technology could remotely identify various types of plastics, offering a valuable tool for future monitoring and analysis of oceanic plastic pollution. Researchers have developed a new hyperspectral Raman imaging…

Aldabra Atoll’s Remarkable Shoreline Resilience Over 51 Years

Despite sea level rise in Western Indian Ocean, more than 60% of Aldabra Atoll’s shoreline remained unchanged from 1960 to 2011, based on aerial and satellite image analysis. On average,…

Milestone 10-GeV experiment shines light on laser-plasma interactions

With dual lasers and an advanced gas injector system, researchers at the Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator Center accelerated a high-quality beam of electrons to 10 billion electronvolts in just 30…

What happens in the ocean when two cyclones collide

In April 2021, two tropical cyclones, Seroja and Odette, collided in the Indian Ocean northwest of Australia. Two researchers from the University of Oldenburg have now studied how this rare…

Seals strategically scoot around the seas on icebergs

New study shows seal moms prefer slow and steady icebergs, while seals prefer faster ice in better foraging grounds later in the year. Harbor seals in icy regions use icebergs…
