Potential of Leaking Modes to Reveal Underground Structure

JoAnna Wendel, freelance science writer and illustrator by JoAnna Wendel 7 March 20227 March 2022

Instead of waiting for earthquake waves to tell scientists about the structure of Earth’s interior, scientists can now use ambient noise from humans to “see” underground.

El Niño-Southern Oscillation and Radiation Two-Way Coupling

by Suzana Camargo 9 February 20221 August 2022

Changes in sea surface temperature during ENSO events and radiation are related, suggesting a two-way coupling between sea surface temperature and radiation in coupled climate variability.

Evolution is More Important than Environment for Water Uptake

by Valeriy Ivanov 8 February 20223 May 2022

Despite conventional assumptions, a new study shows that evolutionary proximity of species defines root water uptake strategies, not their position in landscape or ambient environment.
