Wind farm construction may harm marine populations

Offshore wind farms might produce clean energy, but they do have negative effects on the environment. For one, their construction causes noise that might be disturbing, driving out, or even harming local wildlife. In a Science Daily article, European researchers have devised a computer model tool to determine the possible effects of such facilities on […]

Scientists aim to predict the next Ebola outbreak by tracking the migration patterns of BATS

The next time an Ebola epidemic breaks out in Africa, we may be warned in advance by bats. A Science Daily article reports how Pennsylvania-based researchers created a computer model that predicts the migratory movements of the airborne mammals that carry the virus. Bats are considered to be a primary carrier of the Ebola virus. They are […]

A quantum approach to time could reduce memory requirements for future computer simulation models

Computer simulations are extremely useful for scientists who are trying to research by giving them the ability to use models that can make their work easier. Typically, computer models are developed by the scientists themselves while trying to work with the inherent limitations of whatever computer is available for their use. But new research suggests […]
