Planet Venus. Credit: Unsplash. For the first time, oxygen atoms have been identified in the dayside atmosphere of Venus, free from being part of larger molecules. This revelation not only marks a significant advancement in our understanding of Venus but also paves the way for future missions to the enigmatic planet. Revised Text For the first time...
Credit: Pixaobay A study led by Penn State reveals that rivers are experiencing more rapid warming and oxygen loss compared to oceans. The research, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, indicates that out of approximately 800 rivers studied, 87% showed warming trends, and 70% exhibited oxygen loss. According to the study, river systems, especially in...
The pivotal component in EPFL's innovative solar hydrogen reactor is the parabolic dish. EPFL engineers have successfully constructed and examined a solar reactor capable of harnessing sunlight and water to produce hydrogen gas. This system not only exhibits exceptional efficiency in hydrogen generation but also effectively utilizes the byproducts of oxygen and heat. Hydrogen has a...

A small, light-activated molecule lately evaluated in mice corresponds to a brand-new strategy to eliminating clumps of amyloid protein located in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients....
Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge and 20 other hospitals worldwide and healthcare technology leader NVIDIA have utilized artificial intelligence (AI) to anticipate Covid patients' oxygen needs on a global scale. The pandemic triggered the research study and set out to develop an AI tool to forecast how much additional oxygen a Covid-19 patient may require in...
NUS researchers, led by Assistant Professor Lum Yanwei, have developed a groundbreaking technique to address rising CO2 emissions and their impact on climate change. Their method greatly improves the conversion of waste CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels, directly from treated industrial flue gas. This innovation turns CO2 into key raw materials like ethylene...
