They are also called power plants of the cells: the mitochondria. They are present in almost all eukaryotic cells and they supply the cells with energy. Until now, it was…
Hurricane resembling those in lower atmosphere observed over Earth’s polar ionosphere. The first observations of a space hurricane have been revealed in Earth’s upper atmosphere, confirming their existence and shedding…
Stevens uses machine learning-driven techniques to develop a long-awaited tool that better reveals the health of Earth’s oceans and the impacts of climate change. Researchers at Stevens Institute of Technology…
New insights into behaviour, sinks and reduction measures. In order to assess the impact of microplastics on the oceans, it is necessary to know their quantity and their behaviour in…
During glacial periods, the sea level falls, because vast quantities of water are stored in the massive inland glaciers. To date, however, computer models have been unable to reconcile sea-level…
A new study identifies nine specific large-scale weather patterns that influence extreme precipitation over the Mediterranean. Making use of this connection between localized extremes and large-scale weather variability can help…
