Located on the north-eastern outskirts of Tashkent , the house sits between two contrasting environments. The site is accessible from two streets, with a canal and gardens on one side and a low-rise residential neighborhood, or mahalla, on the other. The house was positioned to o
Natural gas drilling could raise salt levels, in turn boosting radium in water
Pennsylvania ranks second in U.S. natural gas production, accounting for about one-fifth of U.S. output in 2024, and has one of the most extensive histories of energy extraction in the country. A team of researchers from Penn State is trying to better understand the environmental
Hotel stigma may drive Chinese hospitality graduates away from careers
Research published in the International Journal of Environment and Sustainable Development analyzed interviews with more than 300 Chinese hotel interns to examine how perceptions of hotel work affect whether graduates pursue a career in the industry. The findings suggest that neg

Years ago, during the Great Recession, I attended an event sponsored by an environmental organization that had formed in protest to a planned dam construction project on the Cache La Poudre River in northern Colorado. At the time, my husband
Beyond Raw Transcripts: Structured Persona Extraction for LLM-Based Digital Twins
arXiv:2608.20344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based "digital twins" aim to simulate how an individual would behavein new environments or respond to novel questions, given some representation of that individual's prior responses. A common approach constructs this representat
MIT researchers engineer bacteria that could program plants for self-defence
Researchers at MIT have found a way to grow bacteria to function as signal-senders that might allow plants to "sense and respond to environmental conditions such as drought or attack by pests". The study was published in the journal Nature Chemical Biology and details a novel way
