Earth’s hiding fifth layer in its inner core, reveals fresh evidence

Posted by in categories: education, evolution

Traditionally we’ve been taught the Earth has four primary layers. Though, a distinct change at depth suggests there’s another.

Fresh evidence concerning the possibility that Earth’s inner core has a separate inner core of its own was published in Nature Communications.

In the new study, Thanh-Son Phạm and Hrvoje Tkalčić from the Australian National University collated data from existing probes.

This Arkansas school turned solar savings into better teacher pay

Posted by in categories: education, energy

The project that resulted has helped slash the district’s annual energy consumption by 1.6 million kilowatts and in three years generated enough savings to transform the district’s $250,000 budget deficit into a $1.8 million surplus.

Just as Hester envisioned at the outset, a major chunk of the money is going toward teachers’ salaries — fueling pay raises that average between $2,000 and $3,000 per educator per month.

Yale’s most popular class ever to be available via Coursera

Posted by in category: education

The most popular class in the history of Yale is now available online, joining 20 other Coursera classes taught by Yale faculty.

The class, Psyc 157, “Psychology and the Good Life,” is taught by psychology professor Laurie Santos. Nearly a quarter of all Yale undergraduates have enrolled in the class in its inaugural year — a fact that attracted media attention around the globe.

Scientists Detect Signs of Hidden Structure Inside Earth’s Core

Posted by in category: education

While most of us take the ground beneath our feet for granted, written within its complex layers, like the pages of a book, is Earth’s history. Our history.

Research shows there are little-known chapters in that history, deep within Earth’s past. In fact, Earth’s inner core appears to have another even more inner core within it.

“Traditionally we’ve been taught the Earth has four main layers: the crust, the mantle, the outer core and the inner core,” Australian National University geophysicist Joanne Stephenson explained in 2021.

New Smart Technology Developed by UC Davis Professor May Help in Early Detection of Insects in Food and Agricultural Products

Posted by in categories: computing, education, engineering, food, internet

Zhongli Pan is the recipient of the 2023 Distinguished Service Award by the Rice Technical Working Group, which will be presented at the 2023 RTWF Conference on February 20–23. The award recognizes individuals who have given distinguished long-term service to the rice industry in areas of research, education, international agriculture, administration and industry rice technology.

Post-harvest losses are common in the global food and agricultural industry. Research shows that storage grain pests can cause serious post-harvest losses, almost 9% in developed countries to 20% or more in developing countries. To address this problem, Zhongli Pan, an adjunct professor in the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering, has developed a potential solution.

Pan’s recent project using an IoT (Internet of Things) based smart wireless technology to remotely detect early insect activity in storage, processing, handling and transportation may solve the insect infestation related challenges for the agricultural industry. The technology uses a novel device called SmartProbe – designed by Pan and his team using wireless sensors and cameras – and leverages cloud computing to monitor and predict insect occurrences. This could help control insect pest, reduce food loss and the fumigants used in agricultural products today. Ragab Gebreil, a project scientist in Pan’s lab, is the co-inventor of this technology.

Future computers You WON’T See Coming…(analog computing)

An emerging technology called analogue AI accelerators has the potential to completely change the AI sector. These accelerators execute computations using analogue circuits, which are distinct from digital circuits. They have advantages in handling specific kinds of AI algorithms, speed, and energy efficiency. We will examine the potential of this technology, its present constraints, and the use of analogue computing in AI in the future. Join us as we explore the realm of analogue AI accelerators and see how they’re influencing computing’s future. Don’t miss this engaging and educational film; click the subscribe button and check back for additional information about the newest developments in AI technology.
