More than half of the lakes around the world are loosing water

More than half of the lakes around the world are loosing water

Posted on 26 June, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: A recent study found that 53 percent of the greatest freshwater lakes on earth are in decline and are now retaining less water than they did thirty years ago. The study measured changes in water levels in roughly 2,000 of the largest lakes and reservoirs in the globe using satellite measurements spanning decades. It was discovered that human consumption, sedimentation, and climate change are to blame . However, the lead author, former CIRES visiting fellow and current climate...
How water pumping change the Earth's surface?

How water pumping change the Earth's surface?

Posted on 28 June, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: A recent study found that the Earth tilted about 80 centimeters (31.5 inches) east between 1993 and 2010 due to human activity in extracting water out of the earth and transporting it to other locations. Scientists previously calculated that between 1993 and 2010, humanity pumped 2,150 gigatons of groundwater, or more than 6 millimeters (0.24 inches), of sea level increase, based on climate models. It's challenging to verify that estimate, though. One method involves using...
Creating an Innovative, Solid, Air Working Battery

Creating an Innovative, Solid, Air Working Battery

Posted on 30 June, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: Typically, negative electrodes in batteries are made of active materials like metals. Rechargeable metal-air batteries with oxygen-reducing positive electrodes have recently used redox-active organic compounds, such as quinone- and amine-based molecules, as negative electrodes. Here, the redox reactions involve protons and hydroxide ions. These batteries operate well and are almost at their theoretical maximum capacity. Furthermore, using redox-active organic molecules in...
Enhanced 3D vision helped a four-legged robot navigate bumpy terrain

Enhanced 3D vision helped a four-legged robot navigate bumpy terrain

Posted on 3 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary: A novel model has been created by researchers at the University of California, San Diego, that teaches four-legged robots to see in three dimensions more clearly. The development made it possible for a robot to easily and autonomously navigate difficult terrain, including rocky ground, stairways, and paths with gaps.  The scientists will present their findings at the Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), which will be held in Vancouver, Canada, from June...
AI discovers flora's hidden characteristics to aid save species

AI discovers flora's hidden characteristics to aid save species

Posted on 4 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

Summary:To research and mitigate the effects of climate change on flora, scientists from UNSW and the Sydney Botanic Gardens have trained AI to access data from millions of plant specimens maintained in herbaria around the world. Associate Professor Will Cornwell, the study's principal author, adds that herbarium collections are incredible "time capsules of plant specimens." It's no longer feasible to go through items manually because the National Herbarium of New South Wales alone...
