New research from India reveals that, contrary to long-held scientific beliefs, feeding on trees and shrubs does not provide Asian elephants with more protein than grazing on grass.
A new study presents a comprehensive understanding of how river floods in India have evolved over the past 40 years, from 1970 to 2010, based on records of river flow from 173 different monitoring stations spread across the country.
A new study brings attention to a different type of glacier - Rock glaciers, which are landforms composed of rocks and ice, and their importance.
Detecting leakage of hydrgoen gas has been a major challenge in using hydrogen as fuel for many applications. This is now made easier by a new study by researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee. They have used nanotechnology based silicon carbide ‘cauliflowers’ to develop a simple, robust, and cost-effective sensor that can detect hydrogen gas at high temperatures and small quantities. This research is a small step that can make using clean and green hydrogen gas as fuel, replacing conventional fossil fuels.
