A new X-ray technique developed by Cornell engineers has revealed the cause of a long-identified flaw in sodium-ion batteries; a discovery that could prove to be a major step toward making sodium-ion as ubiquitous as lithium-ion.
Five Cornell faculty members have been elected fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest general scientific society.
To reduce global atmospheric greenhouse gas, Cornell food systems expert Mario Herrero shows how China must develop more sustainable, international agricultural trade.
Flavio Lehner, a climate scientist and assistant professor of earth and atmospheric science, comments on an anticipated commitment from President Biden to cut greenhouse gas emissions at least in half by 2030.
Timur Dogan, an architect, building scientist, professor and director of the Environmental Systems Lab at Cornell University, comments on a European Union building renovation project to be announced this week.
The Cornell University Borehole Observatory provides a platform to directly study the temperature, permeability and other characteristics of the rock deep beneath the Ithaca campus – factors that will help the university determine whether to move forward with a proposed plan to warm the Ithaca campus with Earth Source Heat.
Cornell chemists have discovered a class of nonprecious metal derivatives that can catalyze fuel cell reactions about as well as platinum at a fraction of the cost, which could bring hydrogen fuel cells in vehicles and generators closer to reality.
A new Cornell study could help inform the development of offshore wind farms by providing detailed models characterizing the frequency, intensity and height of low-level jet streams over the Atlantic coast.
A nitrogen doped carbon-coated nickel anode can catalyze an essential reaction in hydrogen fuel cells at a fraction of the cost of the precious metals currently used, Cornell researchers have found.
Cornell University experts are available to weigh in on New York City's proposed congestion pricing and its potential impacts on traffic congestion, public transit ridership, greenhouse gas emissions as well as equity implications and health benefits.
