Titan's Surface Organics Surpass Oil Reserves on Earth
"This global estimate is based mostly on views of the lakes in the northern polar regions. We have assumed the south might be similar, but we really don't yet know how much liquid is there," said Lorenz. Cassini's radar has observed the ...
Cenozoic Bi-polar Connections Over Millennia Session at the 33rd ...
change, especially in light of the International Polar Year with a renewed focus on history of the Polar regions. We invite you to submit abstracts concerning developing connections and modeling between the polar regions. ...
Comment on Equal Area Projections by Geoff Sherrington
In the absence of computational code released by Hansen, we have no idea of the sophistication of the adjustments made in polar regions, or whether particular problems were not thought of. We do not know if the 1000 km range derived ...
In the dark
Potential targets for the MoonLITE probes include the Moon’s permanently dark far side and its two shadowed polar regions. The far side of the moon is, of course, not permanently dark, it’s just facing away from us. ...
The World’s Largest Potential Energy Resource
“Gas hydrates are a naturally occurring, ice-like combination of natural gas and water found in the world’s oceans and polar regions. These natural gas accumulations are estimated to greatly exceed the volume of all known conventional ...
HYDROLOGIC AND CRYOSPHERIC PROCESSES IN MOUNTAIN AND POLAR REGIONS
HYDROLOGIC AND CRYOSPHERIC PROCESSES IN MOUNTAIN AND POLAR REGIONS. Canada's cold regions (alpine, Arctic, subarctic) have unique geophysical and geomorphological characteristics that significantly affect the regional hydrologic cycle. ...
Ocean impacts mapped
In one of the most comprehensive looks yet at the oceans, researchers say that humans have "strongly" fouled 41 percent of the high seas with everything from storm water runoff to shipping waste and that only small polar regions are ...
Inconvenient Ice Thickening
The polar regions are a concern to climate specialists studying global warming, since those regions are expected to feel the impact of climate change sooner and to a greater extent than other areas. ...
Postdoctoral Fellowships in Polar Regions Research
The Postdoctoral Fellowships in Polar Regions Research program supports training and research for recent doctoral degree recipients in any aspect of scientific study of the Antarctic and/or the Arctic within the Office of Polar Programs ...
Global Warming - Sun
Another phenomena I've seen in dreams, a lifting of the apparent horizon (not an actual physical lift but an optical phenomena relating to refraction) is currently observed to a limited degree primarily in polar regions, often referred ...
