Tracking Pollution From Space
Engineers processed data
from NASA's Aura satellite
in order to track and
predict the movement of
airborne pollution. Using
satellite data to measure
ozone concentrations over

Preparing For A Walk On The Moon
Astrophysicists found that
the moon's surface becomes
electrified during each full
moon. The moon passes
through the Earth's
magnetotail, a cone of
highly-charged particles,

Predicting When Tornadoes Will Strike
Meteorologists found
connections between the sea
surface temperature in the
tropical Pacific Ocean and
the occurrence of tornadoes
in unlikely parts of the
North American continent.

Engineers And Meteorologists Catalogue Weather Activity To Devise Green Energy Plan
Researchers installed weather stations to track the best locations for taking advantage of renewable resources. Tracking sunlight exposure helps pinpoint the ideal location for solar panels, and ... > more -
Soil Scientists Restore Marshes To Protect Coastal Ecology
Soil scientists spread material dredged from shipping channels over shore areas to help rebuild marsh areas. Wetlands along the shore protect the land from storm surges, create habitat for wildlife, ... > more -
Earth Scientists And Geographers Integrate Maps And Weather Data
Scientists created a way to combine weather data and geographic information systems software in a visual display for use in disaster response. They created a map with a variety of ways to layer and ... > more -
Geophysicists Show That Crust Temperature Variation Explains Half Of Elevation Differences In North America
Geophysicists determined that tectonic mountain-building processes are not the only factor that determines elevation in North America. The temperature of the crust affects its density, and lower ... > more -
Marine Biologists Work To Protect Seahorses By Developing A Breeding Program
Marine biologists, worried that regular harvesting of wild seahorses may threaten the creature with extinction, have begun breeding them in home aquariums. Caring for seahorses requires a three-step ... > more -
Meteorologists Find That Increased Ocean Temperatures Cause Increasingly Intense Hurricanes
Climate change experts studying hurricanes documented a 35-year warming trend in ocean surface temperature and linked it to larger hurricanes. The increase has been 1 degree Fahrenheit, resulting in ... > more -
Geophysicists Blame La Nina Weather For Lost Time
Geophysicists have identified the very real physical mechanism that can lengthen or shorten the amount of time the earth takes to complete one rotation. During La Nina the temperature of the Pacific ... > more -
Electrical Engineers Use Regional Airliners To Increase Weather Forecasting Accuracy
