Students inspire engineering activities and curriculum development for young learners
Civil and environmental engineering TREX students present their findings on Hawaii’s Mt. Kilauea to Boston Museum of Science educators.
Engineering undergraduates characterize sulfur emissions from Hawaiian volcano
Kilauea volcanic smog study may lead to better understanding of effects on human health, infrastructure, and environment.
Chasing the plume
Civil and environmental engineering "TREX" course allows students to examine firsthand the effects of volcanic emissions on air and soil quality.
Study: Climate change and air pollution will combine to curb food supplies
Ozone and higher temperatures can combine to reduce crop yields, but effects will vary by region.
An Arctic ozone hole? Not quite
MIT researchers find that the extremes in Antarctic ozone holes have not been matched in the Arctic.
Making Martian clouds on Earth
Cloud-chamber experiments show that clouds on Mars form in much more humid conditions than clouds on Earth.
New low-temperature chemical reaction explained
Unusual reaction, never fully understood, is important to fuel combustion, atmospheric chemistry and biochemistry.
