Scientists used fiber-optic cables to turn “thunderquakes” into underground maps that could help reveal hidden hazards beneath cities.
We haven't written up this one. Science News has the full story — the link below goes straight to it.
With the help of thunderstorms and everyday fiber-optic cables, these scientists are revealing a hidden world underground.
We develop a new direct accelerated Newton method for minimizing convex functions with Lipschitz continuous Hessian. The algorithm uses only primal variables and performs just one linear solve per…
KOI-884 e is a gas giant exoplanet that orbits a K-type star. Its mass is 2.42 Jupiters, it takes 59.9 days to complete one orbit of its star, and is 0.28769382022711 AU from its star.
Seismic waves produced by thunderstorms, called thunderquakes, can be used as a novel source for seismic imaging, according to a new study led by researchers at Penn State.
If a remotely operated oil tanker causes a spill, the shipowner remains responsible for compensating victims under existing international rules. But another question remains unresolved: Can the person controlling the ship from shore also be sued directly for negligence?
Sacramento River winter-run Chinook salmon are California's most endangered salmon, with a single surviving population and an average of a few thousand returning fish in recent decades. Shasta Dam blocks their original habitat in cold mountain rivers draining Mount Shasta, leaving them to spawn in the low-lying Sacramento River, heated by…
