Bacteria Use Hydrogen, Carbon Dioxide to Produce Electricity
May 19, 2013 — Researchers have engineered a strain of electricity-producing bacteria that can grow using hydrogen gas as its sole electron donor and carbon dioxide as its sole source of ... > full story -
Roots of Future Tropical Rainfall: Sea Level Influenced Tropical Climate During the Last Ice Age
May 19, 2013 — How will rainfall patterns across the tropical Indian and Pacific regions change in a future warming world? Climate models generally suggest that the tropics as a whole will get wetter, but the ... > full story -
Heat-Related Deaths in Manhattan Projected to Rise: Killing Season May Push Into Spring and Fall
May 19, 2013 — Researchers say deaths in Manhattan linked to warming climate may rise some 20 percent by the 2020s, and, in some worst-case scenarios, 90 percent or more by the 2080s. Higher winter temperatures may ... > full story -
