The experiment, which will take place on 19 September, demonstrates the potential of high-performance computing infrastructures for emergency calculations, warning systems and urgent responses to extreme natural events.
Thanks to the exceptional allocation of supercomputing resources, unprecedented seismic simulation maps will be generated covering half of Mexico, one of the most seismically active areas on the planet.
A “teenaged” pachycephalosaur from Mongolia’s Gobi Desert may provide answers to lingering questions around the dinosaur group, according to new research published today in the journal Nature. The fossil represents a new species of pachycephalosaur and is both the oldest and most complete skeleton of this dinosaur group found to date.
New study reveals that corals in the Gulf of Aqaba have withstood four consecutive and intensifying marine heatwaves, including the world’s most extreme 2024 event, without suffering mass bleaching — a resilience unmatched elsewhere. This is important because coral reefs globally are collapsing under rising ocean temperatures, threatening ecosystems and human livelihoods. The Gulf of Aqaba may represent one of the planet’s last natural refuges for reef survival, offering a crucial model for understanding resilience and underscoring the urgency of protecting this unique ecosystem before even it reaches its limits. New study reveals resilience of Red Sea corals in the face of intensifying climate threats.
Layered sodium manganese oxides (Na2/3MnO2) are promising cathode materials for developing high-capacity sodium-ion batteries. However, they suffer from severe capacity fading during cycling. In a new study, researchers systematically investigated how scandium doping can improve the cycling stability of P’2 polytype of Na2/3MnO2, revealing a new design strategy for developing long-life and high-capacity sodium-ion batteries for commercial applications.
POSTECH and University of Seoul have developed a roadmap for low-cost, high-efficiency perovskite solar cells using AI.
