Rachel Moore spent nearly 50 days in one of the most remote places on Earth, collecting ice cores; the research has implications for climate change predictions and searching for signs of life on icy worlds.
Annalisa Bracco, Taka Ito, and Chris Reinhard from the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences will create computer models to measure how well CO2 removal techniques work on land, rivers, and oceans, as part of $264 million in grants.
Newly appointed Georgia Power Chair Chris Reinhard, an associate professor in the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, will co-lead a $4.8 million USDA pilot project, studying a process that could help farms trap atmospheric carbon.
Many insects fly synchronously, matching the nervous system pulses to wing movement. But smaller insects don’t have the mechanics for this and must flap their wings harder, which works only up to a certain point. That’s where asynchronous flight comes in.
The Love Family Professor holds joint appointments in the School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering and School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Georgia Tech.
Georgia Tech researchers have uncovered eco-friendly bacterial proteins that stabilize methane clathrates, offering a green solution to climate challenges and potential implications for astrobiology.
