Researchers have identified urban sewage as a critical hotspot for the evolution and spread of drug-resistant bacteria, highlighting an urgent need for nationwide wastewater monitoring to prevent future health crises.
The new study presents a method for predicting the age of the quake that caused a sand dike using a phenomenon known as luminescence dating.
Scientists at Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru have developed a new type of energy harvester that uses piezoelectric and electrodynamic mechanisms in a single device.
Energy harvesters are devices which converts ambient sources of energy like solar, wind, thermal or mechanical, into usable electricity. Unlike energy producers which consume fuel to produce energy, energy harvesters can only convert one type of energy into another usable form, usually electricity and often run on renewable energy sources.
