Cornell-led scientists aim to resolve a wasting disease afflicting seagrass – the ocean’s critical first line of coastal filters – with a $2.5 million National Science Foundation grant.
Flavio Lehner won a three-year, $500,000 grant from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to improve climate models on which future U.S. water projections are based.
Justin Wilson has received a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop more efficient methods of separating rare earth elements, which are found in wind turbines, liquid crystal displays, batteries, and portable electronics.
After stifling temperatures parked over the Pacific Northwest in late June, scientists – including Cornell’s Flavio Lehner – said climate change triggered it.
Cornell is partnering in a $36 million grant from the Toyota Research Institute for its Accelerated Materials Design and Discovery collaborative university research program, which seeks to use artificial intelligence to discover new materials that could help achieve emissions-free driving.
The rocky surface of Earth’s geology may provide a buffer for climate change to absorb excess carbon, according to a new Cornell paper in Global Biogeochemical Cycles.
John Tobin, an expert on environmental and energy economics, comments on the impact coronavirus is having on the renewable energy industry, and what the industry's long-term outlook looks like.
David Bateman says that the conflict between California and the Trump administration over auto emissions will expose potentially counter-intuitive positions on states’ rights among political actors.
An engineered bacteria may solve challenges of extracting rare earth elements from ore, which are vital for modern life but refining them is costly, environmentally harmful and mostly occurs abroad.
