Antarcticas clouds are a big mystery to climate scientists

Grist: I know what you`re thinking: Clouds can`t possibly be that complicated, right? They`re just a bunch of water vapor hanging out in the atmosphere, and sometimes they leak. Sure, there are a lot of variables at stake: temperature on land and at sea, wind speeds both local and global, humidity, pressure, not to mention a changing climate. And, yes, clouds are subject to chaotic physical forces such that even the most detailed measurements can`t explain what will happen more than a few hours into...

Scientists move one step closer to turning water into fuel, cheaply

Christian Science Monitor: Scientists have cleared one hurdle on the path to deriving hydrogen fuel from water affordably, a breakthrough that could drastically change the way we power vehicles. Hydrogen has the potential to fuel incredibly environmentally-clean cars. But making that fuel hasn't been so efficient or economical. Pure hydrogen gas does not occur naturally on Earth, so scientists must devise ways to separate hydrogen from naturally-occurring compounds, like H2 O. Until now, cars that run on water have been...

Scientists detect inherited traits tied to sleep, wake, and activity cycles
2015-12-29 00:57:51| Biotech - Topix.net
December 28, 2015 - In the first study of its kind, a team of international scientists led by UT Southwestern Medical Center and UCLA researchers have identified a dozen inherited traits related to sleep, wake, and activity cycles that are associated with severe bipolar disorder. Researchers also were able to tie the traits to specific chromosomes, providing important clues to the genetic nature of the disorder, as well as potential new avenues for prevention and treatment.
