"Tells the story of a laser technology that will have a big impact on society and the brilliant innovators responsible for its development"--
The presence of subseismic scale faulting within high porosity sandstone reservoirs and aquifers represents a significant source of uncertainty for activities such as hydrocarbon production and the geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide. The inability to resolve geometrical pr…
The climate of the Wester Ross region of NW Scotland is particularly sensitive to fluctuations in the strength and latitude of the North Atlantic Gulf Stream. This was particularly apparent during the last deglaciation (14.7-12.9 ka), when overall climatic amelioration was inter…
A sustainable and resilient infrastructure is critical to maintaining the US global competitiveness and the development of its society. However, a historical pattern of continuous deterioration of the domestic infrastructure condition is the likely result of the increasing fundi…
This research combines traditional archaeological analysis with lidar data to investigate infrastructure, residential architecture, and neighborhoods in a completely new way. Taken together, these analyses show the shape and form of this city during its apogee in CE 650, while p…
