The Fukushima Dai-ichi release of radionuclides into ocean waters caused significant local and global concern regarding the spread of radioactive material. We report unequivocal evidence that Pacific ...

This work describes a flexible, solid-state, lithium-ion–conducting membrane based on a 3D ion-conducting network and polymer electrolyte for lithium batteries. The 3D ion-conducting network is based ...

The current Carbon Capture, utilization, and Storage (CCS) tax credit in the United States is unlikely to incentivize ...

Recommender systems use data on past user preferences to predict possible future likes and interests. A key challenge is that while the most useful ...

The rate of change of climate codetermines the global warming impacts on natural and socioeconomic systems and their capabilities to adapt. Establishing past rates of climate change from temperature ...

We conduct a comprehensive study of three different magnetic semiconductors, CrI3, CrBr3, and CrCl3, by incorporating both few-layer and bilayer sa ...

The principle factor controlling the heat flux from the core is the ability of the thermal boundary layer overlying the core-mantle boundary to conduct heat. Thermal conductivity of the lowermost ...

Some of the earliest genomewide studies involved testing for linkage at loci spanning a large portion of the genome. Because a separate statistical test is performed at each locus, traditional p ...

GdPtBi and NdPtBi belong to the Heusler family of compounds and are conventional antiferromagnets below 9 and 2.1 K, respectively. We present evidence for magnetic-field–induced Weyl physics in these ...

It is well known that a jostled string tends to become knotted; yet the factors governing the “spontaneous” formation of various knots are unclear. We performed experiments in which a string was ...

Improved approaches for the detection of common epithelial malignancies are urgently needed to reduce the worldwide morbidity and mortality caused by cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small (≈22 nt) ...

Identifying the genes underlying adaptation is a major challenge in evolutionary biology. Here, we describe the molecular changes underlying adaptive coat color variation in a natural population of ...
