Aims Stornata can close to avoid cavitation under decreased soil water availability. This closure can be triggered by hydraulic ('H') and/or chemical signals ('C', 'H + C') By combining plant ...

Water has puzzled scientists for decades. For the last 30 years or so, they have theorized that when cooled down to a very low temperature like -100C, water might be able to separate into two liquid ...

Tokyo, Japan – The exchange of water and heat between the Earth and its atmosphere determines climate zones and ecosystems, which in turn influence where essential human activities take place. While ...

Today IonQ announced that its quantum computer has achieved a critical milestone: simulating the water molecule with accuracy approaching what is needed for practical applications in the promising ...

A device which simulates borehole ballooning, a detrimental side effect of deep-water drilling operations, is expected to ensure safe and efficient operations. If not prevented, borehole ballooning ...

Researchers from the Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo consider waterflows and vegetation mosaic on hillslopes for accurate simulation of land surface water and energy status ...
