IGBP calls for better observation of Earth's "Achilles' heels"
Monitoring the most sensitive "hotspots" of the Earth is an important way of assessing the health of our planet and predicting our future, said IGBP (International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme) scientists speaking at the Earth Observation Summit in Washington last week. The summit was attended by officials from more than 30 countries... view more... (2003-08-06)
A more silent and ecological refrigerator with more precise temperature maintenance
The Thermal Engineering group of researchers at the Public University of Navarre is working on the design of a domestic thermoelectric refrigerator. Unlike the conventional system of producing a cold environment - by vapour compression - the thermoelectricity used in the design of this refrigerator allows the manufacture of more compact and... view more...

Researchers stress the need to educate consumers about hazards of tire aging
Human factors/ergonomics (HF/E) researchers at North Carolina State University have found that vehicle owners may not be aware that older but relatively unused tires can fail and cause crashes. view more (2006-10-17)
UNH Scientists Continue To Fly High As NASA Unlocks The Puzzle Of Global Air Quality
The National Aeronautic and Space Administration's (NASA) DC-8 research aircraft is arguably the world's most sophisticated flying laboratory and scientists from the University of New Hampshire have been onboard the jet conducting one-of-a-kind science for the past two decades. view more (2006-04-28)
Delft nano-detector very promising for remote cosmic realms
A miniscule but super-sensitive sensor can help solve the mysteries of outer space. Cosmic radiation, which contains the terahertz frequencies that the sensors detect, offers astronomers important new information about the birth of star systems and planets. view more (2007-01-18)
Who needs environmental monitoring?
We monitor the stock market, the weather, our blood pressure. Yet environmental monitoring is often criticized as being unscientific, expensive, and wasteful. view more (2007-06-08)
Microbiologists meet Scottish Parliament to discuss the environment
Environmental issues such as waste management, GM crops, energy and pollution dominate much of the work of the Scottish Parliament. MSPs will be able to find out about the latest research from scientists at this year's 'Science and the Parliament' event today, Wednesday, 12 November at The Signet Library, Edinburgh. Experts from the Society for... view more... (2003-11-07)
International Field Campaign examines impact of beetle kill on Rocky Mountain weather, air quality
Mountain pine beetles appear to be doing more than killing large swaths of forests in the Rocky Mountains. Scientists suspect they are also altering local weather patterns and air quality. view more (2008-09-25)
Pine Bark Beetles Affecting More than Forests
Pine bark beetles appear to be doing more than killing large swaths of forests in the Rocky Mountains. Scientists suspect they are also altering local weather patterns and air quality. view more (2008-09-25)
Smokers see decline in ability to smell, rise in laryngitis, and upper airway issues
As Americans prepare for a day without cigarettes and tobacco products as part of the American Cancer Society Great American Smokeout (R) (November 20), new research gives them more reasons to extend that break to a lifetime. view more (2008-11-04)

Europe`s flying... view more... (2002-02-27)
How Increased UV Exposure Impacts Plants
As the first plant life to emerge from the water and develop on dry earth, bryophytes offer a unique opportunity for researchers to understand the development of protections against ultraviolet radiation. view more (2009-03-10)
Research breakthrough will lead to more accurate weather forecasts
More accurate global weather forecasts and a better understanding of climate change are in prospect thanks to a breakthrough by engineers at Queen's University Belfast's Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology (ECIT). view more (2009-08-07)
Air pollution found to pose greater danger to health than earlier thought
Experts may be significantly underestimating air pollution's role in causing early death, according to a team of American and Canadian researchers, who studied two decades' worth of data on residents of the Los Angeles metro area. view more (2005-09-21)
