A new global crustal model and its corresponding uncertainty were obtained using minimum a priori information and a geostatistical approach.Read More »Science Policy & Funding
The Resilience Genome Initiative will empower a cadre of transdisciplinary resilience engineers to adopt and continuously develop climate adaptation solutions.Read More »Hydrology, Cryosphere & Earth Surface
According to a new study, the performance metric–based methods currently used to evaluate dynamical model sensitivity are based upon faulty reasoning and need to be reenvisioned.Read More »
A new model suggests that many objects in the outer asteroid belt may still harbor deposits that formed around the time of their accretion.Read More »Mathematical Geophysics
Building well-documented, citable frameworks for Earth data analysis will encourage scientific replicability by addressing the underlying issues that inhibit code sharing.Read More »
A task force of researchers set out to bridge the gap between the 2-week weather forecast and long-term climate predictions; their findings could help in forecasting the likelihood of extreme events.Read More »Atmospheric Sciences
Bruce R. Barkstrom, principal investigator for NASA missions involved with understanding Earth’s radiation budget, committed his life to analyzing, interpreting, and stewarding Earth science data.Read More »Mathematical Geophysics
The planet is heating up, but uncertainty still exists about how temperatures will change in specific regions. A new study examines sources of uncertainty in the meridional pattern of warming.Read More »Climate Change
How well would your city weather a hurricane? Digitally “moving” past storms to new locations simulates the effects of extreme weather events on local infrastructure.Read More »Mathematical Geophysics
His vision and persistence created a 1.4-billion-pixel map of the Gulf of Mexico seafloor—a crucial tool in research on the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and a completely new standard for bathymetry maps. Read More »
