SOLVING CHALLENGES IN A RAPIDLY CHANGING WORLD
VIRGINIA TECH RESEARCH EXPERTS IN THE MEDIA
Space Daily - The shifting history of North America's ancient ice sheet - Yet, while picturing this immense ice mass is fascinating, the present-day implications of its retreat - particularly concerning land shifts and sea-level changes - are of pressing interest. Ph.D. candidate Karen Williams, from the Department of Geosciences at Virginia Tech, has taken on this challenge. Using advanced computer models, Williams is investigating how Earth's landscape transformed as the ice receded and how these changes may inform current issues like sea-level rise and sinking land.
Interesting Engineering (also MSN and Popular Mechanics) - Billion-year-old rocks could be hiding dark matter, scientists surprise - “The team has already started generating 3D renderings of high-energy particle tracks in synthetic lithium fluoride. This artificial crystal won’t make a good dark-matter detector, but it will help establish the full range of signals while keeping the crystal intact,” Patrick Huber, a physicist at Virginia Tech, said.
IFL Science - After Snowball Earth Came Short-lived Slushball Earth, Lithium Isotopes Prove - Dr Tian Gan, then at Virginia Tech, was part of a team that explored what happened afterward using the ratio of lithium-6 to lithium-7 in carbonate rocks laid down as the ice melted. Their work supports a model of the process known as plumeworld.
