3+ day, 20+ hour ago   (286+ words) Gondwana is an ancient continent which scientists have now confirmed was a supercontinent that spread over 80 per cent of the landmass on Earth. They found 25,000 ancient rocks, and AI helped them determine that they belonged to Gondwana 500 million years ago....

1+ week, 4+ day ago   (69+ words) Sarah Stanley, a freelance writer for Eos, has a background in environmental microbiology but covers a wide range of science stories for a variety of audiences. She has also written for PLOS, the University of Washington, Kaiser Permanente, Stanford Medicine,…...

1+ week, 6+ day ago   (258+ words) As environmental conditions change, it is increasingly important to understand the structure and properties of the Earth’s critical zone, the layer where rock, soil, water, air, and living organisms meet and interact. While several geophysical methods provide images of the…...

2+ week, 2+ day ago   (71+ words) A new artificial-intelligence architecture designed to handle the jagged, unruly mathematics of real-world systems has outperformed both conventional neural networks and established optimization software in a demanding test involving a French hydraulic valley. Called P1-KAN, the model is a new…...

3+ week, 3+ day ago   (323+ words) Solving the shallow-water equations (SWEs) using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) can be computationally expensive on uniform grids. Here we develop a quadtree-based adaptive mesh refinement framework that preserves the Cartesian grid structure while enabling local refinement. A cell-centred data…...

3+ week, 4+ day ago   (86+ words) controlglobal.com Flow measurement is in the middle of a decisive shift. For example, differential pressure flowmeters—long saddled with complex, Reynolds-number-dependent calculations—are getting simpler. In this E-handbook, we discuss a new "Energy Correlation Method" that strips out discharge…...
