Foroutan, associate professor in civil and environmental engineering and an affiliated faculty of the Global Change Center in the Fralin Life Sciences Institute, wants to bring these impacts to the forefront.
As sea ice disappears and grows less reflective, the Arctic has lost around a quarter of its cooling power since 1980, and the world has lost up to 15%, according to new research led by University of Michigan scientists.
UC San Diego researchers have uncovered the roots of group behavior in the brains of schooling fish. Glassfish, they found, depend on their sense of vision to coordinate social swimming behavior in schools and increase their ability to follow coordinated group movements as they mature.
The Supreme Court's recent Grants Pass v. Johnson ruling grants mayors broad powers to address homelessness, including jailing individuals for sleeping outside. ...
Irvine, Calif., July 17, 2024 — As nursing homes constantly strive to balance staffing decisions and optimal health outcomes for residents, a new study led by the University of California, Irvine reveals the complex relationship between different staff disciplines and quality of care. Recently published online in the Journal of the American Medical Directors Association, the study found opposite effects between registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and certified nursing assistants on various quality measures, ranging from antipsychotic medication usage to treating pressure sores.
Los investigadores de ACS Energy Letters informan sobre una batería de iones de litio con componentes totalmente extensibles, incluida una capa de electrolito que puede expandirse un 5000 %, y que conserva su capacidad de almacenamiento de carga después de casi 70 ciclos de carga y descarga.
