UK waters hit with extreme heatwave as global sea temperatures reach record levels
Experts warn that some marine species are at risk of ‘mass mortality events’ in ever-warming oceansUK waters are being hit with an “extreme” marine heatwave, the Met Office has said, as scientists warn that high ocean temperatures globally could result in “mass-mortality events”
UK heatwave spreads further north and west as temperatures continue to climb
This year's third heatwave is one of the longest lasting heatwaves since the infamous year of 1976. O recorte ajuda a contextualizar a pauta dentro de Agro.
Heat-shrinking materials get cleaner production route with lower temperatures and finer pa
Among the many modern technologies that shape life today, functional oxide materials are found in almost everything, from advanced electronics to energy-efficient systems. Functional oxides with high-valent metal ions are a significant topic of interest because of their unusual p
Block-by-block AI maps uncover real urban air temperatures across 380 U.S. cities
Cities are often described as "heat islands," with media reports warning that some neighborhoods can be 20° F (7° C) hotter than others. But those temperatures are often based on satellite data rather than the conditions people actually experience, due to the dearth of near-surfa
Western Europe records hottest-ever June as heatwaves intensify
Temperatures across ravaged region 3C above average as scientists warn of risks for people, ecosystems and infrastructureRecord wildfires in Europe show failure to adapt carries a mounting costWestern Europe has been scorched by its hottest June on record, scientists have said, a
Scientists finally solved a 150-year-old gallium mystery
Scientists have rewritten the story of gallium after discovering that its unusual atomic bonds re-form at high temperatures, contradicting decades of accepted theory. The finding changes how researchers explain why the metal melts so easily and behaves unlike almost any other met
Researchers develop low-cost AI tool to help cities map urban tree canopy
As a heat dome drives dangerous temperatures across much of the United States and renews concerns about extreme heat, USC researchers have developed a new, freely available AI tool that could help cities better understand one of their best defenses against rising temperatures: tr
This alien planet never has sunrise or sunset. It may support life
A planet with one side permanently roasting and the other frozen in endless darkness might still have a chance of supporting life. Researchers found that heat inside a tidally locked exoplanet could circulate in a stable, continuous loop, helping moderate temperatures in certain
UK bakes in 35C highs as heatwave to continue next week
On Thursday, temperatures exceeded 34C for the eighth day this year, breaking the previous record of seven days in a calendar year.
Why natural forests survive heat waves better than planted forests
When a record-breaking drought and heat wave swept across China's Yangtze River Basin in 2022, forests across the region faced an extreme test. The event provided a rare opportunity for researchers to test how different forests respond when rising temperatures and water shortages
‘Children were calling for their mummies’: UK pupils struggle in 40C-plus classrooms
Teachers call for schools to be urgently adapted for hot weather amid reports of nausea, fainting and heatstrokeThe extreme heat that has hit the UK twice in the past few weeks has left teachers struggling to cope as temperatures in some classrooms climb above 40C, with pupils an
