This video segment adapted from NOVA scienceNOW highlights research that supports the idea that warmer oceans generate and sustain more intense hurricanes. Ongoing monitoring of sea surface temperature (SST) has supplied evidence that the world's oceans warmed 0.5°C between 1970 and 2005. Because hu
The boiling temperatures of the hydrocarbons are explained. A short review of the basics is at the beginning. The influence of the molecular surface on the boiling temperatures is also explained. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alu
Meet NASA scientist Lynn Carter, who studies the geology of planetary surfaces, in this video adapted from NASA's Goddard Space Science Center. Carter describes how scientists learn about Earth by studying other planets and moons. Objects such as the Moon have older surfaces, which serve as a record
Take a tour of the Moon's surface features in this video from NASA. Images and topographic maps show craters, rocks, mountains, basins, and valleys, including the Orientale basin, Shackleton crater, South Pole-Aitken basin, Tycho crater, Aristarchus plateau, Mare Serenitatis, Compton-Belkovich volca
Earth is a complex, evolving body characterized by ceaseless change. To understand Earth on a global scale means using a scientific approach to consider how Earth's component parts and their interactions have evolved, how they function, and how they may be expected to further evolve over time. This
Drinking water in Germany is obtained from groundwater, surface water and spring water. Depending on the region, the composition varies. Author: 3sat/nano, mirror TV, Christine Voges, R. Engelke+S. Karm+F. Gutsche+J. Heck+B. Asgari, K. Scheef+F. Buscha, Tim Kunter Translation and dubbing: alugha
A river flows because water always follows the natural gradient on the earth's surface. All flowing waters follow the line of least resistance. River curves have developed naturally over thousands of years. They are called meanders. Author: ZDF/Terra X/Bilderfest/Florian Breier, Christian Stiefenho
The volcanoes of the Andes are particularly explosive. The oceanic plate that dips below the continental one contains a lot of water. The water evaporates in the glowing magma. High pressure is created, which discharges at the Earth's surface in massive volcanoes. Source: https://www.zdf.de/dokumen
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientist Sanjeev Gupta uses images captured by Curiosity rover to explain the significance of pebbles found on Mars. Gupta describes the ground-layer composition at three outcrops near the rover's landing site that contain rounded pebbles. Because rounded pebbles on E
Mars is so attractive to us humans because it is our closest neighboring planet. It formed only a little earlier than Earth and can tell us a lot about the evolution of Earth and the solar system. Author: ZDF/nano/Raketenfilm/Andreas Gust/Konstantin Fuchs Translation and dubbing: alugha Click her
Learn the basics about Properties of water. What are the properties of water? What is water made of? Find out more in this video! This video is part of 'Chemistry for All' - a Chemistry Education project by our Charity Fuse Foundation - the organisation behind The Fuse School. These videos can be u
Explore whether Mars is alive -- geologically or biologically -- in this video from NASA. Satellite images and the recent discovery of water ice on the surface of Mars suggest liquid water is flowing beneath the surface, which could make it a habitable planet. The controversial discovery of methane
