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,

NASA Saving Lives
Using data from a NASA
satellite, scientists
crafted accurate storm
animations intended to
improve upon current models
used by meteorologists. They
used historical data to
combine all the information

Environmental Scientists Fume About Disappearing Flower Fragrances
Biochemists have shown that air pollution inhibits the distance that flower's fragrances can travel. Scent molecules usually travel easily in the air, but pollutants break them apart, which destroys ... > 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 -
Atmospheric Scientists And Engineers Demonstrate Amount Of Pollution In U.S. Originating Overseas
Environmental scientists and engineers developed mathematical models to calculate the impact of pollution from Europe and Asia on areas in the United States. They found that almost twelve percent of ... > 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 -
Engineers Use Mine Roof Simulator To Increase Mine Safety
Industrial hygienists, applying geology and engineering, can test mine support systems with the only mine roof simulator of its kind. Using up to 3 million pounds of vertical force and 1.6 million ... > more -
Poultry Nutritionists Remove Pollutants From Watersheds By Adding Enzyme To Chicken Feed
Poultry nutritionists add an enzyme called phytase to chicken feed in an effort to decrease the amount of phosphorus that passes through them undigested. Research revealed the maximum amount of ... > more -
Seismologists Devise New Technique To Measure Pollution
Seismologists have tested a new way to measure the concentration of the dangerous groundwater contaminant Trichloroethylene (TCE). Ultrasonic waves called P-waves are sent through ground containing ... > 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 -
Geophysicists Discover Slippery Secret Of Weaker Underwater Earthquakes
Seismologists investigating undersea earthquakes have found that molten rock lubricates faults. This decreases the amount of friction between sides of the fault and decreases the intensity of ... > more
