A sustainable and resilient method to reduce wave forces and debris impact during extreme tsunami and coastal flood events
General
New research from Stanford University has discovered a distressing link between coal-fired power plants and the harm they can cause to two of India's most important crops - Rice and Wheat.
Asteroid YR4 2024 is a near-Earth asteroid discovered in December 2024. It is an Apollo-type asteroid, which means it orbits the sun in an elliptical orbit that intersects the Earth's orbit. It made news earlier this year when the probability of YR4 hitting the Earth was raised to 3.1% in February 2025, warranting nations to take note.
Combining hydrogen-based processes with advanced catalysts and renewable energy paves the way for developing economically and industrially viable solutions to decarbonise the steel industry
Research uncovers how worldwide weather trends contribute to the rise of simultaneous heatwaves and droughts in India, stressing the urgency for better weather forecasting and climate preparedness.
Researchers have discovered two new species of dragonflies from the Western Ghat - Merogomphus aryanadensis from Kerala and Merogomphus flavoreductus from Maharashtra.
Combining two electrochemical techniques, hydrogen permeation-based potentiometry (HPP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), the researchers efficiently measured the coating degradation rates on the industrially relevant metal.
Researchers have shown how subtle nanoscale changes to the spacing between cancer cells can enhance ultrasound treatments' effectiveness in killing those cells.
IIT Kharagpur researchers have developed a new framework using blockchain-based technology and token-based incentivisation to securely and fairly share data to train an AI model.
Since early January 2025, more than 207 cases of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) have been reported from Pune, many of them from within a 5 km radius of Sinhagad Road. On the 12th of February, Mumbai recorded its first death from GBS. At the same time, Bengaluru traffic police put out a cautionary video on precautions to take to prevent the spread of the disease. The outbreak in Pune has been linked to a pathogen known as Campylobacter jejuni, a major cause of foodborne infections and the leading contributor to GBS cases worldwide.
