In a bid to determine the melting temperature of ice in high atmospheric pressures, scientists have found a sharp increase in the melting curves, which opens up the possibility that water exists as a solid in the deep interior of planets such as Neptune, Uranus and Earth. picked by AutumnLotus 3 weeks ago

Astronomers have made use of ESO's Very Large Telescope to detect for the first time in the ultraviolet the carbon monoxide molecule in a galaxy located almost 11 billion light-years away, a feat that had remained elusive for 25 years. This detection allows them to obtain the most precise measurement of the cosmic temperature at such a remote epoch. picked by AutumnLotus 5 months ago

New view of Earth’s inner workings depicts the planet as a living organism where events that happen deep inside can affect what happens at its surface, like the rub and slip of tectonic plates and the rumble of the occasional volcano. picked by AutumnLotus 12 months ago

Rising global temperatures may stall for the next decade, with some scientists now believing the natural response of ocean currents will temporarily offset the effects of climate change. German climate scientists say the temperature pause is the result of the slowing of the global currents that transport heat around the planet. picked by AutumnLotus 5 months ago

The oppressive heat that crept over parts of the western United States during the first few days of July 2007 took hold of the entire West during the week of July 4 through July 11. Deep red tones blanket every western state in this land surface temperature image. picked by AutumnLotus 1 year ago

Changing magnetic fields in the sun's core can produce small instabilities in the solar plasma. These instabilities might induce localised oscillations in temperature. These oscillations can produce changes in the core temperature in cycles that are either 100,000 or 41,000 years apart which is the time between ice ages. picked by 2manyusernames 2 years ago

Bacteria and parasites can grow more quickly in warm water. The koi fishes system takes time to adjust but the disease organisms do not. Raise the temperature from ambient at 3 - 5 degree intervals every 24 hours to 80 - 84 degrees Fahrenheit. Maintain a stable temperature with less than 2 degrees variable per day Treat with 0.3% salt and parasiticides or antibiotics during the adjustment period, ... read full post picked by subashsbm 1 year ago

If correct, then other properties of the Sun such as its internal temperature and density may be slightly different than previously calculated. Understanding the Sun's interior is important as it might help scientists make predictions about space weather and answer questions about the solar system. picked by AutumnLotus 11 months ago
