Predictions of the direct impacts of greenhouse gases must account for local temperature and humidity conditions.
Surface measurements of rain drop sizes shed light on cloud processes and cloud types.
Research offers evidence that microbes and organic matter raise toxin levels, potentially helping improve mercury monitoring.
Nutrients increasingly moving to the deep ocean with strong climate warming could lead to drastic drops in surface ocean life and fishery yields.

New method produces high-purity zirconium-89, a diagnostic radionuclide used to image cancerous tumors.
Yes. Such condensates, analogous to those in carbon-12, in heavier nuclei could change how we describe certain elements.
Scientists tame damaging edge instabilities in steady-state conditions required in a fusion reactor.
Spectroscopic measurements reveal that main ions flow much faster than impurities at the edge of fusion-relevant plasmas.
Surprisingly, a magnetic island does not necessarily perturb the plasma current in a dangerous way and destroy fusion performance.
Scientists discover why solar flares produce X-rays; a few electrons avoid collisions and accelerate to produce a microsecond burst.
The two most abundant elements in the universe, hydrogen and helium, were previously thought to be impossible to measure by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

The 3.7-billion-year-old structures were considered the first evidence for life on the planet; new evidence suggests differently.
