For decades, water’s behavior in extreme conditions has puzzled scientists. A study using SDSC's Expanse has produced compelling evidence that at supercooled temperatures and high pressures, water can exist in two distinct liquid states, each with its own unique structure and density.
Better simulations to understand how viruses work. Better ways to model and predict climate change. Better robots that can navigate the real world. Researchers from all across UC San Diego and around the world converged on campus last week to explore the promise of generative AI.
A new study led by scientists from UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography details an improved method for estimating the likelihood of extreme precipitation events in the western United States.
Massimiliano Di Ventra and Lingyan Shi from the University of California San Diego have been elected senior members of the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) in recognition of their innovative work.
Electrons are incredibly fast. Because of their ultrafast motions, directly observing their behavior has been challenging. Now researchers from UC San Diego’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry have suggested a new method to make visualizing electron motion a reality.
The size of very large earthquakes might be easier to predict than smaller quakes. A Scripps-led team found that a new model did a good job explaining the amount of slip due to the 2023 Turkey earthquakes. The model also predicts some quakes might have the potential to be bigger than thought.
