Rain is one of nature’s most fascinating processes, yet most people take it for granted. Every drop that falls from the sky ...

Molecular dynamics model uses topological order parameter to show stratification of water molecules based on density.

A new technology is stepping in the ring to help Permian Basin oil and natural gas producers manage their produced water.

Transpiration, the process of plants releasing water vapor, is crucial for plant cooling but can lead to dehydration in extreme heat. Continuously high nighttime temperatures exacerbate plant stress ...

Imagine waking up one morning to find that every drop of water on Earth—oceans, lakes, rivers, puddles, even the dew on grass ...

Seabed-origin oil spills pose distinct challenges in marine pollution management due to their complex transport dynamics and ...

Most of the water on Earth is salty ocean water—not suitable for drinking. While desalination plants can remove the salt and make seawater drinkable, they use a lot of energy and expensive equipment.

In a leap toward sustainable desalination, researchers have created a solar-powered sponge-like aerogel that turns seawater into drinkable water using just sunlight and a plastic cover. Unlike ...

Car experts emphasize quick, safe actions if you experience a breakdown during California’s summer heat: Move your vehicle ...

Researchers developed a sponge-like material with long, microscopic air pockets that uses sunlight and a simple plastic cover ...

Learn how trees use massive amounts of water through the process of transpiration for the benefit of themselves and the Earth.

Researchers have developed a sponge-like material with long, microscopic air pockets that uses sunlight and a simple plastic ...
