Semi-Automated Systems Take Water Jetting to a New Level
2015-05-12 17:19:00| Chemical Processing
High-pressure water jetting is powerful and versatile, helping contractors and industrial companies do hundreds of challenging jobs. While many jobs are still done manually, new semi-automated systems can maximize three elements crucial to any companys success: productivity, safety and environmental responsibility.

Sea level rise accelerates, say scientists
2015-05-12 12:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: Sea level rises across the planet have been accelerating over the past two decades, not declining as previously thought. A new study has found that sea level rise has accelerated in recent decades, countering claims that total sea level rise is lower than previously estimated. Previous research had predicted that over the past 20 years, the rate at which sea levels were rising had slowed down, but the new study suggests a rise of between 2.6 and 2.9mm per year between 1993 and 2010. The...

Apparent slowing of sea level rise is artefact of satellite data
2015-05-11 20:47:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Scientist: A slowdown in rising sea levels recorded over the past decade is down to a measurement error. In fact, sea levels are rising more quickly than ever. Over the past century, the sea level has risen by around 0.2 metres, and it has been rising faster and faster. However, this trend got murky over the past decade, with satellite data suggesting that the sea level has risen slightly more slowly in the past decade than in the previous one. That would be good news if true. Yet the result was odd...
Sea Level Rise Speeds Up
2015-05-11 18:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: Sea level rise is a game of millimeters a year, but those millimeters add up to a huge amount of water entering the world's oceans. And the rising tide could eventually swamp cities around the globe. With tide gauges distributed sparsely around the planet, scientists have turned to satellites to provide a global picture of sea level since the early 1990s. New research published on Monday in Nature Climate Change refines those satellite estimates and provides some good and bad news. The good news?...
Sea level rise accelerated over the past two decades, research finds
2015-05-11 17:17:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Sea level rise sped up over the last two decades rather than slowing down as previously thought, according to new research. Records from tide gauges and satellites have shown sea level rise slowing slightly over the past 20 years. But as the ice sheets of West Antarctica and Greenland shed ever more water into the ocean, climate models show it should be doing the opposite. The thing that was really puzzling us was that the last decade of sea level rise was marginally slower, ever so subtly...
