Microsoft AI weather forecast faster, cheaper, truer: study
Friday, 23 May 2025 12:57
Microsoft has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that beats current forecasting methods in tracking air quality, weather patterns, and climate-addled tropical storms, according to findings published Wednesday.
Dubbed Aurora, the new system - which has not been commercialised - generated 10-day weather forecasts and predicted hurricane trajectories more accurately and faster th Citizen scientists asked to identify clouds in satellite data for climate research
Friday, 23 May 2025 12:57
CloudCatcher, a citizen science program developed by STFC RAL Space, is inviting the public to help improve the accuracy of cloud detection in satellite imagery. The project plays a vital role in enhancing how scientists measure Earth's surface temperatures from space by verifying when clouds obstruct the satellite's view.
This latest version of CloudCatcher builds on the success of a 2020 Deep mantle carbon flow influences diamond formation and craton stability
Friday, 23 May 2025 12:57
A recent study led by scientists at the Guangzhou Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (GIG-CAS), in collaboration with international partners, uncovers how deeply subducted carbonates reshape the Earth's mantle chemistry, influencing both diamond formation and the evolution of cratonic lithosphere.
Using high-pressure experiments that simulate depths from 250 to 66 NASA-French Satellite Spots Large-Scale River Waves for First Time
Friday, 23 May 2025 12:57
The SWOT mission captured the flood waves, which stretched from 47 to 166 miles long, as they traveled down rivers in Montana, Texas, and Georgia.
In a first, researchers from NASA and Virginia Tech used satellite data to measure the height and speed of potentially hazardous flood waves traveling down U.S. rivers. The three waves they tracked were likely caused by extreme rainfall and by a Senate sets up early June vote on Isaacman nomination to lead NASA
