Deep and Crisp and Eaten: Scotland's Deep- Fried Mars Bar
Scotland has had a reputation as the home of the deep-fried Mars bar for many years. Researchers Dr Mark Petticrew, from the University of Glasgow, and Dr David Morrison had never actually seen them for sale but after a recent mention by Jay Leno, host of NBC's Tonight Show they set out to find if it is myth or fact. view more (2004-12-17)
Deep Impact and Other Spacecraft Find Clear Evidence of Water on Moon
New data from the Deep Impact spacecraft and the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3), an instrument aboard India's recently ended Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, provide, for the first time, clear evidence that water exists on the surface of the Moon. view more (2009-09-25)
Chip pan fires responsible for one in four UK non-fatal fire injuries
One in two poor families could be at high risk of a house fire because they still deep fry food, especially chips, finds a study in Injury Prevention. view more (2002-12-03)
NASA's Deep Impact Craft Observes Major Comet 'Outburst'
NASA's Deep Impact spacecraft observed a massive, short-lived outburst of ice or other particles from comet Tempel 1 that temporarily expanded the size and reflectivity of the cloud of dust and gas (coma) that surrounds the comet nucleus. view more (2005-06-29)
NASA's 'Deep Impact' Team Reports First Evidence of Cometary Ice
Comet Tempel 1, which created a flamboyant Fourth of July fireworks display in space last year, is covered with a small amount of water ice. view more (2006-02-03)
'DEEP AND CRISP AND EATEN': THE SCOTTISH DEEP-FRIED MARS BAR (p 2180)
A letter in this week's issue of THE LANCET details a survey of Scottish fish and chip shops to try and estimate the popularity of the deep-fried Mars bar. view more (2004-12-15)
UCL scientists create first earthquakes in the laboratory
Scientists at UCL have recreated earthquakes in the laboratory for the first time allowing them to better understand the origin of the largest and most violent earthquakes. This is the first time scientists have been able to generate and observe deep and intermediate focus earthquakes in the laboratory, recreating the exact pressure and... view more... (2002-11-14)
UAF geologist studies Chicxulub impact crater
About 65 million years ago, a massive disruption led to worldwide extinction of dinosaurs. The impact of a giant asteroid created massive tsunamis and spewed forth a global cloud of carbon gases that altered Earth's atmosphere and blocked the light for weeks, possibly years. In recent years, that impact event has been linked to a 112-mile-wide... view more... (2007-01-19)
Most patients can be treated safely at home for deep vein thrombosis
New, effective therapies for acute deep vein thrombosis mean that most patients do not need to be admitted to hospital, according to a study in this week's BMJ. These results challenge the traditional notion that these patients must be treated in hospital and adds to the evidence that home treatment of deep vein thrombosis is now routinely... view more...

Marine researchers explore sediment highways
A European team of researchers has demonstrated that sediment is transported to the deep sea via canyons in the seabed. The sediment accumulates in the head of the submarine canyons. At the end of the canyons, mud avalanches disperse into the deep sea. Scientists from the Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ) presented their findings at an... view more... (2002-04-18)
Deep-voiced men get the girls
Women prefer men with deep voices, research from Northumbria University has discovered. view more (2005-03-14)
Caltech scientists lead deep-sea discovery voyage
Scientists from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and an international team of collaborators have returned from a month-long deep-sea voyage to a marine reserve near Tasmania, Australia, that not only netted coral-reef samples likely to provide insight into the impact of climate change on the world's oceans, but also brought to... view more...

Deep Organ Image MR Scan Development
Oxford Researchers have developed a new, simple, design of accessory MR surface coil which significantly enhances the quality and clarity of deep organ MRI images. A new design of magnetic resonance imaging surface coil has been developed in which the location, size and improved homogeneity of the magnetic field within the, so called, "sweet... view more...

Blood clots in lungs might not always originate in deep veins of legs and pelvis in trauma patients
Few trauma patients who develop potentially deadly blood clots in the lungs (pulmonary embolism) also have clots in the deep veins of their pelvis and legs (deep venous thrombosis), challenging commonly held beliefs about the association between the two conditions. view more (2009-10-20)
Brent Spar-Second Scientific Report on Decommissioning
The environmental impacts of the new disposal option for Brent Spar selected by Shell Expro and the original deep sea disposal plan are both acceptably small, according to the Second Report of the Scientific Group on Decommissioning Offshore Structures released today (30 June). The report by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC)... view more... (1998-06-30)
Bleak Times For The Orange Roughy
A committee of high-level marine scientists are calling for an immediate drop in fishing effort on deep sea stocks such as the orange roughy. According to a report which is released by ICES today (11 June), most deep sea fish stocks are being overfished. Scientists are recommending that not only should existing fishing pressure be reduced but... view more... (2004-06-10)
Sunlight has more powerful influence on ocean circulation and climate than North American ice sheets
A study reported in today's issue of Nature disputes a longstanding picture of how ice sheets influence ocean circulation during glacial periods. view more (2008-11-07)
Study examines long-term outcomes following blood clots
Patients who develop a blood clot in their legs (deep vein thrombosis) or lungs (pulmonary embolism) are at risk for experiencing another blood clot within three years, and patients with pulmonary embolism have a higher risk of death. view more (2008-02-26)
MRI accurately depicts deep endometriosis
Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), radiologists may be able to diagnose deep endometriosis and accurately locate lesions prior to surgery, according to a new study published in the online edition of Radiology. view more (2009-07-07)
Nanoparticle technique could lead to improved semiconductors
Devices made from plastic semiconductors, like solar cells and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), could be improved based on information gained using a new nanoparticle technique developed at The University of Texas at Austin. view more (2007-08-07)
