Nature Geoscience has published a remarkably interesting new article, "Continental-scale temperature variability during the past two millennia," by an international team of researchers using proxy ...

Students often struggle with temperature conversions in science courses due to time constraints. A simplified approximation method offers a solution by using basic arithmetic: double Celsius and add ...

Building a thermometer is a matter of precise technology—putting just the right amount of mercury into a specially designed glass tube, for instance—but determining which numbers to use on the ...

It can also measure the temperature-dependent voltage at a nanometer-scale point contact." "Our goal is to perform electro-thermal measurements at the nanometer scale," according to Patrick Fletcher, ...

Scientists recently developed molecular films that can measure the operating temperature of electronic components on a nanometric scale. These patented temperature-sensitive molecules have the ...
