A new study explores large-scale relationships between vegetation and climatic characteristics using machine learning. The findings highlight the importance of climatic extremes in shaping the distribution of several major vegetation types
On May, researchers from an international research group from Finland, Canada, and Russia, publicized findings about the dust trail of the comet 17P/Holmes, which orbits the Sun between Mars and Jupiter.
Associate professor Michael Mathioudakis and other authors develop algorithms that video and other Web platforms could use to make minimal changes to their recommendations so users don´t keep seeing misinformation and extremist content.
Earth Change Observation Laboratory, a research group operating at the Taita Research Station in Kenya and on Kumpula Campus in Helsinki, investigates environmental change with the help of field surveys and remote sensing datasets.
Professor Falcke will tell about the latest findings of the Event Horizon telescope, as well as the scientific impact of the new images of the black hole.
Professor Emilia Kilpua heads a multinational network project in heliophysics, which educates doctoral researchers in the field.
Quantum computing may gain a significant status in the future, and many businesses have already become involved in quantum hackathons.
An observational study by Finnish research groups at the SMEAR station confirms a theory that volatile organic compounds emitted by vegetation form atmospheric aerosols which make clouds more reflective. Brighter clouds reduce the amount of solar radiation reaching the Earth’s surface, thereby cooling the surface.
