A nanodevice developed at EPFL produces an autonomous, stable current from evaporating saltwater by using heat and light to control the movement of ions and electrons. Previously, researchers in the ...

Dr. Ozgur Sahin, an associate professor of biological sciences and physics at Columbia University, who has helped develop a floating, piston-driven engine that generates power, most succinctly ...

We all know that water evaporates when the temperature climbs, but researchers have just shown that there's another factor at play. The breakthrough could solve long-standing atmospheric mysteries and ...

Solar and wind power get all the attention, but harvesting energy from evaporation could go a long way toward solving our power problems — at least in theory. This method of harvesting energy is in ...

Las Vegas • Researchers are working to better measure how much water is lost to evaporation at the nation’s two largest reservoirs as part of effort they say could lead to new water management ...

The warmer than average winter has led to limited ice cover on the Great Lakes as of January 27, 2020. Evaporation can be higher when ice cover is lacking, but it’s not a certainty. Evaporation is the ...

A new source of vast amounts of renewable energy – the evaporation of water – has been discovered by scientists. Writing in the journal Nature Communications, researchers at Columbia University ...
