Major Investment in Air-Conditioning Needed to Address Future Heat Waves

by Jennifer Schmidt 9 September 20221 June 2023

More than 80% of urban residents will need AC by the 2050s, but many of the world’s poorer countries may struggle to meet that demand.

Magnetofossils Unveil Paleoredox Conditions in Extreme Climate

by Mark J. Dekkers 30 August 20229 November 2022

The Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, a thermal pulse about 56 million years ago, is an analog for future global warming. A new magnetofossil study shows progressive ocean deoxygenation.

A New, Fast Computational Tool for Magmatic Phase Equilibria

by Paul Asimow 11 August 202222 December 2022

Thermodynamic calculations in multiphase, multicomponent magmatic systems can be slow and buggy. A new parallel architecture solves the free energy minimization problem much faster than alternatives.

Ceres: Missing Craters, Crust Thickness Variation by Interior Convection

by Bethany Ehlmann 18 July 202217 February 2023

Models show that several puzzling features about Ceres’ topography, gravity anomalies, and crater size distribution may be explained by asymmetric hemispherical convection due to radiogenic heating.

It’s Cool to be Short When You’re in the Arctic Permafrost

by Ankur R. Desai 15 July 202225 July 2022

Extensive ground temperature measurements complicate our understanding of how vegetation cover, snow duration, and microtopography influence the pace of permafrost thaw in a changing climate.
