Temperatures continue to warm, animal populations respond to a rapidly changing environment. The marine environment represents a unique challenge to fisheries researchers as data collection is time and resource intensive. With warming annual temperatures, temperature seasonality is also changing. This represents an additional problem to monitoring as existing surveys typically ...

Scientists have recently developed a new way to “see” the universe, using the gravitational waves predicted by Einstein nearly a century ago. These waves can teach us about some of the most exotic objects known, including star “corpses” known as black holes and neutron stars. Remarkably, they have also helped ...
The detection of gravitational waves from merging stellar-mass black holes has generated much excitement. We expect that similar events - but with black holes that are millions to billions of times heavier - can occasionally occur. Dr. Romani will describe observations of super-massive black hole "binaries." He will also discuss the search ...
