Inspired by the mechanisms plants use to store carbon, researchers found that sunlight can power the capture and release of carbon dioxide, which could vastly lower costs and net emissions.
Immerse yourself in art and science, learn about how climate change might shape population shifts in America and get some tips to make the holidays less overwhelming.
Cornell researchers created a machine learning-based model that can forecast, with greater accuracy than current methods, the impact severe wildfire conditions will have on solar electricity generation.
Cornell bee experts are analyzing samples of bees and related material to help identify the cause of unprecedented managed honeybee losses this winter.
A new study, published in Global Change Biology, presents five case studies that demonstrate how deep collaboration can transform crop monitoring, fertilizer use and water management to tackle the most significant challenges facing farming: water status, fertilizer systems and phosphorus recovery.
In collaboration with Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit, researchers found that a pilot fleet of seven electric buses consumed up to 48% more energy in cold weather.
Cornell researchers are helping to transform portions of Chattanooga’s transit system into a seamless, AI-powered network where buses, shuttles, electric cars and bikes work together to provide the most efficient routes – at the push of a button.
For decades, researchers searched for a single “thermosensor”—a biological thermometer buried deep in the plant’s molecular machinery. But a new theory, led by Avilash Singh Yadav, postdoctoral associate at the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology and the Cornell College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, is flipping that idea on its head.
