An AI tool for scanning sand grains opens windows into recent time and the deep past
Stanford researchers have developed an artificial intelligence-based tool—dubbed SandAI—that can reveal the history of quartz sand grains going back hundreds of millions of years. With SandAI, researchers can tell with high accuracy if wind, rive.....»»
Cloud as stumbling block for the propagation of the Southern Annular Mode
The Southern Annular Mode (SAM), with an iconic dipolar zonal wind pattern centered around the axis of the storm track, is the most dominant mode of variability orchestrating the weather and wind from the subtropics to the poles. Its origin, maintena.....»»
Complex dynamics of 2024 M 7.6 Noto Hanto earthquake in Japan—the long-lasting swarm and its immediate foreshocks
A study published in the journal Earthquake Research Advances sheds light on the relationship between the 2024 magnitude 7.6 Noto Hanto earthquake and a sizable earthquake swarm that began beneath Japan's Noto Peninsula in November 2020......»»
Today’s release of macOS Sequoia brings 70+ new security fixes
macOS Sequoia has officially launched with new features and improvements such as window tiling, iPhone Mirroring, the new Password app, and more. But under the hood, Apple delivered a staggering amount of patched bugs/vulnerabilities to Mac users. Th.....»»
Gravity study gives insights into hidden features beneath lost ocean of Mars and rising Olympus Mons
Studies of gravity variations at Mars have revealed dense, large-scale structures hidden beneath the sediment layers of a lost ocean. The analysis, which combines models and data from multiple missions, also shows that active processes in the Martian.....»»
Deep underground flooding beneath hot springs: A potential trigger for the 1995 Kobe earthquake
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have shown that the 1995 Kobe (Hyogo-ken Nanbu) earthquake, which struck southern Hyogo Prefecture, may have been triggered by deep underground flooding beneath Arima Hot Springs. By analyzing the stable isotope r.....»»
Soil nutrient levels associated with suppression of banana Fusarium wilt disease
Fusarium wilt poses a significant threat to global agriculture, particularly affecting the banana industry, where it is commonly known as banana Panama disease. As a result, enhancing soil-related resistance has emerged as a crucial, environmentally.....»»
Starship Super Heavy breezes through wind tunnel testing at NASA Ames
NASA and its industry partners continue to make progress toward Artemis III and beyond, the first crewed lunar landing missions under the agency's Artemis campaign......»»
New research sinks old theory for the doldrums, a low-wind equatorial region that stranded sailors for centuries
During the Age of Sail, sailors riding the trade winds past the equator dreaded becoming stranded in the doldrums, a meteorologically distinct region in the deep tropics. For at least a century, scientists have thought that the doldrums' lack of wind.....»»
New measurements reveal the enormous halos that shroud all galaxies in the universe
Have you ever wanted to make a $150,000 gamble? If you're right, you open a new window to the universe. But if you're wrong, you've just wasted a lot of money and time......»»
A window into the body: New technique makes skin invisible
Researchers have developed a new way to see organs within a body by rendering overlying tissues transparent to visible light. The counterintuitive process—a topical application of food-safe dye—was reversible in tests with animal subjects, and ma.....»»
The Earth"s inner core is an enduring mystery: Here"s how researchers are starting to solve it
Deep beneath our feet, at a staggering depth of over 5,100km, lies Earth's inner core—a solid ball of iron and nickel that plays a crucial role in shaping the conditions we experience on the surface. In fact, without it we'd be unlikely to even exi.....»»
vCISO services thrive, but challenges persist
While 75% of service providers report high customer demand for vCISO functionality, a new Cynomi report reveals that only 21% are actively offering it—opening a window onto a growth area for service providers while emphasizing the growing centralit.....»»
iPhone 16 rumors vs iPhone 13 - a comparison for upgraders
The average time between iPhone upgrades is three years, and that means when the iPhone 16 launches, iPhone 13 owners will be in that window. Here's what an upgrade from Apple's three-year-old smartphone to the latest practically means.A render of th.....»»
Seismic echoes reveal a mysterious "donut" inside Earth"s core
About 2,890 kilometers beneath our feet lies a gigantic ball of liquid metal: our planet's core. Scientists like me use the seismic waves created by earthquakes as a kind of ultrasound to "see" the shape and structure of the core......»»
Data from space probes show that Alfvén waves drive the acceleration and heating of the solar wind
By studying data from NASA's Parker Solar Probe and the ESA Solar Orbiter, an international team of astrophysicists has found that Alfvén waves drive the acceleration and heating of the solar wind......»»
