Why do some coral reefs weather marine heat waves better than others? A new study published in Scientific Reports shows that ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have discovered a peculiar feature in oscillations similar to that of a child's swing. As a result, they have succeeded in outlining a novel principle for small, ...

RIKEN neuroscientists have gained new insights into how the hippocampus generates and sustains oscillations, which will be helpful for informing models on how the brain region works. Thomas McHugh of ...

Researchers have discovered a new type of plasma oscillation that behaves unlike anything seen before. These plasma waves can move independently of the plasma’s physical properties, even faster than ...

A new study reveals that myelin sheath damage triggers epileptiform spikes and slows REM oscillations during sleep.

A team of solar physicists has reported the discovery of global oscillations of the Sun with very long periods, comparable to the 27-day solar rotation period. The oscillations manifest themselves at ...

Ocean-atmosphere oscillations are naturally occurring cycles affecting sea surface temperature and precipitation. They are among the key reasons why some years are dry and plagued by drought while ...

These motions were measured by analyzing 10 years of observations from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Using computer models, the scientists have shown that the newly discovered oscillations ...
