青年涩导航 Biological Sciences Professor Helps Lead International Research Coordination Network to Study Insect Decline

Over half of the described species in the world are insects. Although many people think of insects as pests, they play vital roles and have a big impact on our invaluable ecosystems, as pollinators, helping break down wastes, and as an essential food source for many other organisms.

Climate Scientist Publishes Trends in 鈥榃eather Whiplash鈥 Events

Many wonder if climate change is the reason we鈥檝e had 'weather whiplash' or day-to-day dramatic changes from hot to cold or cold to hot. As a climate scientist, Cameron Lee, assistant professor in the Department of Geography in the College of Arts and Sciences at 青年涩导航, gets asked this question a lot. Looking beyond just the average temperatures and statistical means, he decided to take a more analytical look at weather whiplash and add to a growing body of climate change literature examining temperature variability trends.

Geology Professor and Science Historian Co-Author Article Exploring Eunice Foote鈥檚 Climate Experiments From 1856

Recently, Joseph Ortiz, Ph.D., professor and assistant chair in the Department of Geology in 青年涩导航鈥檚 College of Arts and Science, partnered with Sir Roland Jackson, Ph.D., a historian of science at the Royal Institution and the Department of Science and Technology Studies at University College London, to co-author a paper assessing the experiments described in Eunice Foote鈥檚 papers from a detailed quantitative perspective and to place them in historical context. They point out the differences between her hypothesis and that of the modern greenhouse effect.

Nuclear Physics Researchers Publish Atom-Smashing Symmetry Experiment Results in Top-Tier Journal

Nuclear physics researchers at 青年涩导航 and all over the world have been searching for violations of the fundamental symmetries in the universe for decades. Much like the 鈥淏ig Bang鈥 (approximately 13.8 billion years ago), but on a tiny scale, they briefly recreate the particle interactions that likely existed microseconds into the formation of our universe which also likely now exist in the cores of neutron stars.
