Radiocarbon is a powerful tracer for ocean circulation and climate studies
Radiocarbon analyses on corals from two sites in Australian waters of the southwest (SW) Pacific has indicated significant changes in ocean circulation in the Pacific and large climate variability during the early to mid-Holocene period (8,000-5,400 years ago).
International researchers overturn assumptions about the structure of most widely used hydrogel
Research confirms that methylcellulose, one of the most widely used hydrogel-forming materials in biomedical research and consumer products, organises itself into a structural architecture
