The intensity of waves in a three-dimensional material that has a high degree of disorder does not drop off exponentially — rather it exhibits a step-like change. The interaction of waves with ...

Journal of Coastal Research, SPECIAL ISSUE NO. 29. Natural and Artificial Reefs for Surfing and Coastal Protection (WINTER 2001), pp. 51-65 (15 pages) A method for predicting and describing the ...

Atmospheric teleconnections or wave trains, such as the well-known PNA (Pacific–North America) pattern, are of great importance because they can link weather and climate between regions separated by ...

(Nanowerk News) "Terahertz waves" fall between microwave and infrared radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum, oscillating at frequencies of between 100 billion and 30 trillion cycles per second.

Researchers have developed a way to use sound to create cellular scaffolding for tissue engineering, a unique approach that could help overcome one of regenerative medicine’s significant obstacles.

Terahertz (THz) waves fall between microwave and infrared radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum, oscillating at frequencies of between 100 billion and 30 trillion cycles per second. These waves ...

Imagine working in your office while the sun is shining outside. Thinking about what you could be doing instead of working is an example of "counterfactual thinking". New research in primates has ...

This year’s scorching weather is in keeping with a trend. Scientists say a number of factors, including changes in the jet stream, are in play. By Henry Fountain Two months ago, France experienced its ...

As the planet continues to warm, multi-day heat waves are projected to increase in frequency, length and intensity. The additive effects of these extreme heat events overwhelm emergency service ...
