Breakthrough carbon nanotube material sets new thermal insulation record –
Chinese researchers have developed a new carbon nanotube insulator that can withstand high temperatures up to 2,600°C, outperforming all other materials used for extreme-temperature applications. This breakthrough could be used for heat shields on hypersonic Read More
For the first time, a study maps safe areas that can practically be used for underground carbon storage, and estimates that using them all would only cut warming by 0.7°C. The result is almost ten Read More
All (or at least most) astronomical eyes are on 3I/ATLAS, our most recent interstellar visitor that was discovered in early July. Given its relatively short observational window in our solar system, and especially its Read More
Every year, billions of microscopic ocean drifters—copepods, krill, and other zooplankton—perform a breathtaking migration in the Southern Ocean, diving hundreds of meters into the deep. As they descend to hibernate for the winter, Read More
Study maps New Zealand's residential carbon emissions – New Study/Science
Taranaki and the upper West Coast have the most potential to reduce heat-related carbon emissions and reliance on natural gas resources, a new University of Otago—Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka-led study shows. Summary A University Read More
A deeper look into carbon flux is now possible—thanks to a deep pool of scientific collaboration. And for once, the spotlight is on Asia. Summary A growing network of scientific collaboration is enabling more Read More
Novel protein therapy shows promise as first-ever antidote for carbon
University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) researchers, along with their colleagues, engineered a new molecule that appears promising as an effective antidote for carbon monoxide poisoning with fewer side effects than other molecules currently Read More
In the dark depths of the ocean, scientists have confirmed that deep-sea mesopelagic fish produce carbonate minerals just like their shallow-water relatives. This hidden process plays a critical role in the ocean’s carbon cycle, Read More
“Potentially Huge Implications” – Scientists Discover Ancient Carbon Is Leaking
A new global study reveals that ancient carbon, once thought securely stored in soils and rocks, is leaking into the atmosphere via rivers. For the first time, researchers have confirmed that carbon trapped in landscapes Read More
