Lava lamp tectonics: Research suggests giant blobs of subducted sediment float up through deep Earth Posted: 04 Aug 2021 09:35 AM PDT Sand and mud subducted off the coast of California around 75 million years ago returned to the Earth's crust by rising up through the mantle as enormous diapirs, like blobs in a lava lamp, new research shows. |
Dissolvable smartwatch makes for easier electronics recycling Posted: 04 Aug 2021 09:35 AM PDT Small electronics, including smartwatches and fitness trackers, aren't easily dismantled and recycled. So when a new model comes out, most users send the old devices into hazardous waste streams. To simplify small electronics recycling, researchers have developed a two-metal nanocomposite for circuits that disintegrates when submerged in water. They demonstrated the circuits in a prototype transient device -- a functional smartwatch that dissolved within 40 hours. |
Space scientists reveal secret behind Jupiter’s ‘energy crisis’ Posted: 04 Aug 2021 09:33 AM PDT New research has revealed the solution to Jupiter's 'energy crisis', which has puzzled astronomers for decades. |
Researchers use AI to unlock the secrets of ancient texts Posted: 03 Aug 2021 02:52 PM PDT Researchers at University of Notre Dame are developing an artificial neural network to read complex ancient handwriting based on human perception to improve capabilities of deep learning transcription. |
