Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientists have found that trees in a dense forest of Oman have an unusual way to water themselves by extracting moisture from low-lying clouds. Professor Elfatih A.B. Eltahir of civil and environmental engineering have found that the trees have preserved an ecological niche in an area characterized mostly by desert. The plants exploit a wispy thin source of water that occurs seasonally. The forest could be driven to extinction if camel continue to g...

Silicon is the edifice of electronics revolution. With the help of silicon, microchips are made and they are used as integrated circuit (I.C.) in a variety of electronic appliances like TV, computer, etc. Transistors made of silicon switch electric current on and off. In a single silicon chip there are hundreds of thousands of tiny transistors. As a result, the size of a computer in the early stage was as large as a room, which later shrank to pocket-sized PC. In the Univ...

According to a report on the journal Science, the unusual molluscs of oceanic cold sweeps ---strange clams, mussels, and sea snails --- that thrive on the sulfur and methane rich environments ---- are on average older than marine mollusk rich community as a whole.

Due to the hydrogen sulphide and methane leak through the oceon floor, a unique chemical environment is created where the ha...
