Guest post at Realclimate on aerosol nucleation and climate 1 Citation Guess it?s a little late notice, but I have a guest post at RealClimate on the potential effects of aerosol nucleation and cosmic rays on climate. For the whole article please see RealClimate. The bottom line is as follows. Freshly nucleated particles have to grow by about a factor of 100,000 in mass before they can effectively scatter solar radiation or be activated into a cloud droplet (and thus affect climate). They have about 1-2 weeks to do this (the average residence time in th, technorati.com

1 Citation Two sandals, both alike in dignity, In fair Nordstrom, where we lay our scene, From gorgeous hue break to new wearability, Where cork soles make sore feet untrue. From forth the fatal lust for these two shoes An empty star-cross?d wallet takes its life; Whole misadventured high-priced killer shoes Do with their purchase bury my meager savings. The fearful passage of their death-mark?d price, And the continuance of my wallet?s emptiness, Which, but a lottery win, nought could unite, Is, technorati.com

13 things that still need explaining? 1 Citation space Ok geek heads of the internet this one is for you! Science is basicly experimentation and testing to prove or disprove the unknown, well it?s 2009 and even with our current advances in technology we are still a long long long way from being a super civilisation that knows everything but with a little hard work and the life long commitment of some scientific boffins we should get there eventually? Just spend some time reading this article from New Scientist, very interesting and defi, technorati.com

NASA spacecraft unravels anatomy of solar tsunami in 3D 1 Citation Washington, April 15 (IANS) A NASA spacecraft provided scientists with their very first view of the speed, trajectory and three-dimensional shape of powerful detonations from the sun known as coronal mass ejections (CME). This new capability will dramatically enhance scientists? ability to predict if and how these solar tsunamis could affect the Earth. When directed toward our , technorati.com

Planet physical State of the Earth and Life 1 Citation By Dr. Alexey N. Dmitriev*SummaryCurrent Planet Physical alterations of the Earth are becoming irreversible. Strong evidence exists that these transformations are being caused by highly charged material and energetic non-uniformity in anisotropic interstellar space which have broken into the interplanetary area of our Solar System. This ?donation? of energy is producing hybrid processes and excited energy states in all planets, as well as the Sun. Effects here on Earth are to be found in the acc, technorati.com

1 Citation T ra qualche mese comincerà la fase cruciale di un esperimento molto interessante al CERN di Ginevra. Si tratta del CLOUD Esperiment (Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets), con il quale ci si propone di approfondire la conoscenza su uno degli aspetti più controversi della scienza del clima. Ad oggi il fattore limitante più incisivo sull?attendibilità delle simulazioni climatiche è il comportamento delle nubi, con riferimento alla loro formazione alla loro tipologia e, ovviamente contenuto di va, technorati.com

NASA spacecraft provides scientists with 3D view of powerful solar explosions 1 Citation Washington, April 15 (ANI): Twin NASA spacecraft have provided scientists with their first view of the speed, trajectory, and three-dimensional shape of powerful explosions from the sun known as coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. This new capability will dramatically enhance scientists? ability to predict if and how these solar tsunamis could affect Earth. When directed toward , technorati.com

Giant Balloon traversing the Atlantic to catch cosmic radiation 1 Citation University of Delaware researchers in Sweden have launched a giant balloon taller than a football field that is now flying at the edge of space to collect data on cosmic rays ? the most super-charged particles in the universe. You can follow the flight?s path online.The balloon, which is 396 feet tall and 459 feet in diameter when fully inflated, was set aloft at 4:34 a.m. on May 17 from Esrange Space Center near Kiruna, Sweden, in the Arctic Circle. It is flying at a speed of more than 40 knots, technorati.com
