Seismic anisotropy in the deep mantle could partly be derived from the deformation of hydrous phase D
Shear waves split into fast and slow waves when they travel through elastically anisotropic media, and the anisotropy of the seismic velocity is recorded by seismic stations. In the Earth's deep interior, this is usually interpreted as the effect of.....»»
Engineered nanovesicles from activated neutrophils show promise in treating infected wounds
Infectious wounds represent a critical challenge in health care, especially for diabetic patients grappling with ineffective antibiotics and escalating drug resistance. Conventional therapies often inadequately address deep tissue infections, highlig.....»»
AI may be able to predict droughts a year in advance
Skoltech researchers and their colleagues from Sber have proposed deep learning models that predict droughts using climate data. Long-term forecasts of this kind are sought by agricultural producers planning their operations, as well as by insurance.....»»
Apple announces Bay Area Housing Innovation Fund to create more affordable homes
Apple has announced the launch of a new Bay Area Housing Innovation Fund, intended to help the creation of more affordable homes in and around San Francisco. It’s the latest phase of the company’s multi-year initiative to help tackle the Calif.....»»
Researchers reveal parsec-scale radio emission properties of dual AGNs by multi-phase-center VLBI observations
Galaxy mergers play a crucial role in the cosmological evolution of galaxies. During galaxy merging, tidal torques can trigger the accretion and feedback of the central black holes in merging galaxies, forming dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs)......»»
Grain boundaries weaken in planetary interiors, research suggests
Mantle convection and associated plate tectonics of planets like the Earth are governed by the deformation of mantle rocks. This deformation occurs through the motion of defects in the crystal lattices of minerals. Thus, the physical properties of th.....»»
Seismic data shows Mars is often pummeled by planet-shaking meteorites
Seismic information now allows us to make a planet-wide estimate of impact rates. Enlarge / One of the craters identified seismically, then confirmed through orbital images. (credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/University of Arizona).....»»
Researchers forge more open access data for studies of the Earth"s lithosphere
Crust and lithospheric mantle—the thinnest and thickest layers of the Earth's lithosphere—and a wide range of dynamic processes that deform them can be studied by using high precision geodetic data taken directly from Global Navigation Satellite.....»»
NASA transmits hip-hop song to deep space for first time
The stars above and on Earth aligned as an inspirational message and lyrics from the song "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)" by hip-hop artist Missy Elliott were beamed to Venus via NASA's DSN (Deep Space Network). The agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in S.....»»
Cape Cod"s fishhook topography makes it a global hotspot for mass strandings by dolphins
The recent stranding of more than 100 dolphins on Cape Cod, the largest such event involving dolphins in U.S. history, is partly due to the peninsula's geography, with its gently sloping sand flats, tidal fluctuations and proximity to productive feed.....»»

Weather experts discover new effect of storm—in a teacup
Britain, prepare for deep depression: Storms ruin tea. A new study reveals that Storm Ciaran cut an invisible path of mayhem across southern Britain last autumn, destroying any possibility that 20 million people could have a proper cup of tea at brea.....»»
Research team uses satellite data and machine learning to predict typhoon intensity
Amidst the challenges posed by climate change in predicting typhoons, a team of researchers has developed a technology that leverages real-time satellite data and deep learning capabilities to predict typhoons with greater precision......»»
Exploring three-dimensional quantum Griffiths singularity in bulk unconventional iron-based superconductors
Exploration of exotic quantum phase transitions has always been a focus in condensed matter physics. Critical phenomena in a phase transition are entirely determined by the universality class, which is controlled by the spatial and/or order-parameter.....»»
Visualization tool helps oceanographers predict sediment sample hotspots
A new data visualization tool designed by a Georgia Tech Ph.D. student is helping a team of microbial ecologists, geobiologists, and oceanographers gain more insight into how deep-sea microorganisms interact within their environment......»»
Digging deep—value of the soil microbiome unearthed
Researchers in South Australia are digging deep into history of soil biology in the state to gain a better understanding of how the soil microbiome functions to ensure sustainable broadacre farming into the future......»»
We Indulged Our Child During COVID Lockdown. Did That Change Him?
During the lockdown phase of the COVID pandemic, we indulged our toddler son. Years later, we wonder if his current behavior is normal or a result of that early isolation .....»»

Phage-derived enzyme targets E. faecalis biofilms to mitigate acute graft-versus-host disease
Allogenic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) involves transferring healthy donor stem cells to recipients with conditions such as blood cancer, bone marrow failure, or certain genetic blood disorders. Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD.....»»
Deep-mapping the night sky for hot stars
The next NASA space telescope to survey the ultraviolet sky has the fingerprint of an astronomer from the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA). Assistant Professor Ylva Götberg is part of a large international collaboration that will s.....»»
Fermionic Hubbard quantum simulator observes antiferromagnetic phase transition
In a study published in Nature, a research team has, for the first time, observed the antiferromagnetic phase transition within a large-scale quantum simulator of the fermionic Hubbard model (FHM)......»»
