New research shows storms in the Southern Ocean are producing more rainfall, revealing a major shift in one of Earth’s most important climate systems. Macquarie Island sits in the remote Southern Ocean roughly halfway between Tasmania and Antarctica. Visitors arriving on this narrow and windswept island quickly notice the abundant wildlife. Elephant seals lie across […]

How Deep Is Australia’s Deepest Lake? Scientists Finally Reveal the Answer
CSIRO has created a complete, high-resolution underwater map of Tasmania’s Lake St Clair to finally determine the lake’s true depth. A team of researchers from CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, has created a detailed new visualization of one of Tasmania’s most famous natural landmarks. Their work focuses on Lake St Clair, located in the island’s […]
Engineers Create Unusual Magnetic Material That Behaves Like Graphene
Researchers at the University of Illinois have discovered a surprising mathematical connection between two areas of condensed-matter physics that were long considered separate. The electronic and magnetic behavior of two-dimensional materials both hold significant promise for future technologies. For many years, scientists treated these two properties as unrelated. Engineers at the University of Illinois Grainger […]

New Compound Protects Liver After Major Intestinal Surgery
A new experimental compound may help protect the liver after surgical removal of parts of the small intestine. When sections of the small intestine become severely damaged or die, surgeons may need to remove the affected tissue. Although this operation can save a patient’s life, the procedure — known as a radical small bowel resection […]
