Drug trafficking and, paradoxically, efforts to slow it are rapidly driving the deforestation in Central America's most vulnerable tropical rainforests, new research conducted in part by Texas State University reveals.
Predictive agriculture models can inform farming decisions
Just by breathing or wearing deodorant, you have more influence over your office space than you might think, a growing body of evidence shows.
Researcher to explain findings from an Alaskan boreal forest and a Costa Rican cloud forest
Researchers in the lab of UC Santa Barbara professor Yasamin Mostofi have enabled, for the first time, determining whether the person behind a wall is the same individual who appears in given video footage, using only a pair of WiFi transceivers outside.
Symposium to cover cross-cutting issues that apply to growers
To harvest wind energy, you don't necessarily need rotors on steel masts – light kites on thin ropes can do the same. The Empa spin-off TwingTec has been researching this technology for some time now. Last autumn, it was possible for the first time to start, generate electrical energy while flying and then land again, all in the specified level of automation.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) will convene a meeting Oct. 2-3, with top experts from across government, academia and industry to discuss future efforts in Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Scientists to explore unique agriculture facilities in San Antonio area
Media invited to these speakers in San Antonio
Agronomists, crop and soil scientists from around the world to meet in San Antonio
A new artificial intelligence (AI) tool available for free in a smartphone app can predict near-term crop productivity for farmers in Africa and may help them protect their staple crops
USA: The Sahara Desert is vast, generously dusty, and surprisingly shy about its age.USA: The Sahara Desert is vast, generously dusty, and surprisingly shy about its age. New research looking into what appears to be dust that the Sahara blew over to the Canary Islands is providing the first direct evidence from dry land that the age of the Sahara matches that found in deep-sea sediments: at least 4.6 million years old.
Technical sessions at this year’s conference centered around four thematic areas: Autonomous Systems, Nanophotonics and Plasmonics, Virtual Reality and Augmented Vision, as well as Quantum Technologies.
Scientists and companies will showcase their latest research, tools, equipment and services at the AVS 66th International Symposium and Exhibition. The event will be held Oct. 20-25 in Columbus, Ohio. This will be a great opportunity for reporters to interact with experts in a variety of science fields, such as quantum science, plasmas, biomaterials, photonics, nanometer scale technology and more.
A standing room only crowd at the AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum in Indianapolis, Ind. heard an overview of the state of the art of warp drive theory and the feasibility of a future working system. Engage.
At the 2019 Topics in Astroparticle and Underground Physics conference in Toyama, Japan, leaders from the KATRIN experiment reported Sept. 13 that the estimated range for the rest mass of the neutrino is no larger than 1 electron volt, or eV.
It is increasingly common to use robots in war zones to examine and disarm hazards or recover objects with the understanding that the loss of a robot is a far more acceptable outcome than the death of a solider.
Humans and machines worked together to help train an artificial intelligence -- AI -- model that outperformed other clickbait detectors, according to researchers. In addition, the new AI-based solution was also able to tell the difference between clickbait headlines that were generated by machines -- or bots -- and ones written by people.
Better simulating soil’s processes helps better predict climate and land use effects
