MANILA, Philippines — Schools across the country have suspended classes due to high heat indices to protect students—but what about workers? The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE ...

A new study suggests solar heat may subtly influence seismic activity by altering ... Seismologists understand the fundamental mechanics of earthquakes: as tectonic plates shift, they build up strain ...

Some of Arizona's starters have looked quite comfortable at the plate, while some of their Triple-A hitters have risen to the occasion while fighting to carve out a roster spot for themselves.

By combining a model of mantle convection, including a reconstruction of how tectonic plates have moved over the Earth’s surface ... means that they affect how heat is extracted from the Earth’s core.

Heating mantles are preferred to Bunsen burners or hot plates for organic liquids. They provide even heating (no hot spots) and maximum surface coverage for better temperature uniformity. Glas-Col ...
