Ethanol produced from sweet sorghum can be used for auto and jet fuel, UF/IFAS researchers said

While engineers have had success building tiny, insect-like robots, programming them to behave autonomously like real insects continues to present technical challenges

The 1,000+ feet of ice may contain more than half a million years of climate history

Scientists should have a much better understanding in a few decades how high the sea level could rise, Rutgers-led study says

In a recent study, researchers wanted to understand if and how changing climate over the last several decades affected post-fire tree regeneration, a key indicator of forest resilience

Do the simulations with less sea ice or warmer SSTs produce the cooler temperatures seen over Eurasia in the last decade, or could this just be some chaotic variation of the climate system that will eventually even itself out?

Methanol is a key feedstock for the production of chemicals, some of which are used to make products such as plastics, plywood, and paint

NYU Langone Health researchers report on a model developed in India that offers lessons for high-income countries on how to make a common surgery sustainable

UBC research shows both forest vegetation and climate change have an impact on water supply

It is commonly accepted that there is an urgent need for sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels for transportation to replace diesel and petrol
