Earthquake early warning detection is more effective for minor quakes than major ones. This is according to a new study from the United States Geological Survey.
Seismologists modelled ground shaking along California’s San Andreas Fault, where an earthquake of magnitude 6.5 or more is expected within 30 years.

Carbon is a solid, naturally occurring, non-toxic element found in all living things. It forms thousands of compounds, much more than any other element. Medicines, trees, oil, and even our bodies are made of carbon compounds.
Pure carbon occurs in nature mainly in the forms of graphite and diamond. So, what is the “carbon pollution” environmentalists are concerned about? Are they speaking about soot emissions reduction? Amorphous carbon, carbon without structure, is the main ingredient in soot, which is a pollutant important to control. Power plants have already done a good job reducing soot, as they have with other pollutants.

1 INTRODUCTION, In Section One, it was concluded:
1) If the constellations are moving apart at whatever speed, and are simultaneously being replaced by some mass derived from energy, this could provide another explanation for the evolution of the universe, which does not involve a big bang explanation.

Geophysicist and tectonics expert Dr. Aftab Khan has unearthed a massive fault in the current understanding of (1) rapid sea level rise and its fundamental relation to (2) global-scale warming/polar ice melt.
Succinctly, Dr. Khan concludes the two have little to nothing to do with one another.

The question of whether the Late Jurassic dino-bird Archaeopteryx was an elaborately feathered ground dweller, a glider, or an active flyer has fascinated palaeontologists for decades.
Valuable new information obtained with state-of-the-art synchrotron microtomography at the ESRF, the European Synchrotron (Grenoble, France), allowed an international team of scientists to answer this question in Nature Communications. The wing bones of Archaeopteryx were shaped for incidental active flight, but not for the advanced style of flying mastered by today’s birds.

The past decade of work by Stephen Crothers (pictured), following some earlier work by Antoci and Abrams, has focused on mathematically demonstrating the impossibility of the black hole, consistent with the original analysis by Karl Scwarzschild.
This paper briefly reviews Crothers’ work, then presents a physical argument against the credulity of the black hole. This argument examines the extreme difficulty, if not altogether impossibility, of the ‘irresistible force’ of increasing gravity allegedly collapsing a neutron star into an even greater ‘immovable object’ of increasing density – a black hole.

The vast majority of hydropower dams in the Mekong Delta in Southeast Asia have a similar climate footprint as wind power, solar power, and other renewable power sources, scientists conclude in a newly published study in the peer-reviewed Environmental Research Letters.
The findings are particularly powerful because the Mekong Delta dams are likely to emit more methane than dams built and maintained in the United States and much of the rest of the world.

A US Federal Court finally recognizes that climate scientists do not measure properly. Honest mistakes are forgivable, some are plainly intended to commit science fraud.
An open California courtroom this week saw dodgy alarmist scientists properly exposed and taken to task by a US Federal judge – who just so happens to also be a trained engineer! (see: ‘California Court Shines Bright Light On Junk Climate Science‘

There are a number of different techniques and methods that the fake news media uses to attack and demonize those who are concerned with the harmful side effects of some vaccines. Some of these methods were outlined in a recent article published by The World Mercury Project titled “Journalists ‘Shots’ Sometimes Miss Their Mark.”

You may recall the above report by the BBC, which described how bad last year’s Atlantic hurricane season was, before commenting at the end:
A warmer world is bringing us a greater number of hurricanes and a greater risk of a hurricane becoming the most powerful category 5.

MEDFORD/SOMERVILLE, Mass. (March 22, 2018) – Monitoring in real time what happens in and around our bodies can be invaluable in the context of health care or clinical studies, but not so easy to do.
That could soon change thanks to new, miniaturized sensors developed by researchers at the Tufts University School of Engineering that, when mounted directly on a tooth and communicating wirelessly with a mobile device, can transmit information on glucose, salt and alcohol intake.

ABSTRACT: The cause of gravity and its relationship to the formation of the Universe is explored together with a possible relationship between our nearest Black Hole, and Earth.

Attempt to sue oil companies backfires as judge calls out their exaggerations and deceptions. ENVIRONMENTAL campaigners suing oil companies were left wounded yesterday when the first ever “climate change trial” left their exaggerations badly exposed under questioning from a curious judge who demanded evidence not allegations.
