Comparing the first simple climate models with those of today is like comparing a little blurry black and white line drawing with a large, high-resolution full-color photo. Everything has increased dramatically - both complexity, geographical resolution and model datasets. Read the interview with Markku Rummukainen, coordinator of MERGE. - The development is quickly moving forward. When we started

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By studying cold atoms, researchers have in a unique way been able to observe a precursor to a quantum phase transition, and thereby study physical processes that can be compared to the Higgs mechanism. The discovery can, among other things, provide more knowledge about quantum mechanical processes that are similar to

New findings from Jezero crater reveal how bedrock formed deep within Mars' crust was uplifted, submerged under water in a lake and became altered. The results provide a new piece of the puzzle in understanding the long geologic history of our red neighbour planet. Since NASA's Perseverance rover landed on Mars' red dusty surface in February 2021, it has collected a wealth of valuable data. As the

A groundbreaking study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the Australian Bogong moth uses the stars and the Milky Way as a compass during its annual 1,000-kilometre journey to cool inland caves. It also reveals that the Earth’s magnetic field plays an important role in the enigmatic moth’s navigation. It is absolutely amazing considering the length of the journey. It’s the equivalent of a h
