Such lakes likely deposited sulfate salts, as these salts have been widely identified from orbital and in situ Mars data. However, the relationship between martian sulfates and the environmental conditions that formed them ...

Abstract Due to the properties of sound propagation underwater, including the existence of the SOFAR channel, sounds in the ocean can propagate over large distances with little attenuation. This makes passive acoustics a relevant method for monitoring natural events such as ice calving, earthquakes, and underwater volcanic eruptions.

Heavy‐duty conceptual engineering
Abstract Conceptual engineering is the process of assessing and improving our conceptual repertoire. Some authors have claimed that introducing or revising concepts through conceptual engineering can go as far as expanding the realm of thinkable thoughts and thus enable us to form beliefs, hypotheses, wishes, or desires that we are currently unable to ...
