We grow up believing oxygen is essential to life, and for most animals, that’s true. But some creatures have evolved […] ...

A research team from Penn State has broken a 165-year-old law of thermal radiation with unprecedented strength, setting the ...

Scientists say they have discovered three previously unknown, unnamed species of sea spider off the U.S. West Coast that could be teaming up with bacteria to thrive off gas bubbling from the seafloor ...

In CSP applications, thermal energy storage typically involves massive tanks holding thousands of tons of molten salt, which cycles between 300C and 600C. Although molten salts are theoretically ...

Researchers in Australia are working on a way to lower the cost of producing solar thermal energy by as much as 40% with the help of shatterproof rear-view mirrors originally designed for cars.

By using the sun to boost their energy, monitor lizards can travel long distances ... these crocodiles show just how powerful and successful a heat-loving cold-blooded creature can be.

The United Nations' climate action page adequately states: "Energy is at the heart of the climate challenge — and key to the solution." Fossil fuel production and use trap the sun's heat, which harms ...

As global temperatures rise, it is the creatures that have adapted to the heat that continue to thrive. In America, a land known for its diverse ecosystems, some animals have evolved with remarkable ...

For example, captive studies have provided information on their reproduction and their behaviour, such as warming up on heat rocks after using torpor to save energy. Two recent studies analysed ...

Sounds backward, but excess heat can be a big problem ... And do the potential energy savings really make up for the hefty upfront costs? New big-eyed creature found lurking in ancient Roman ...
