- Groundwater in the Arctic is Delivering More Carbon into the Ocean Than Was Previously Known. The groundwater is liberating an estimated 230 tons of organic carbon per day along the almost 2,000-kilometer coastline of the Beaufort Sea in summer. https://www.jsg.utexas.edu/news/2025/01/groundwater-in-the-arctic-is-delivering-more-carbon-into-the-ocean-than-was-previously-known/ 13 comments science

- Scientists find iron ‘snow’ in earth’s core. The snow is made of tiny particles of iron – much heavier than any snowflake on Earth’s surface – that fall from the molten outer core and pile on top of the inner core, creating piles up to 200 miles thick that cover the inner core. http://www.jsg.utexas.edu/news/2019/12/scientists-find-iron-snow-in-earths-core/ 8 comments science

- Calm Lakes on Titan Could Mean Smooth Landing for Future Space Probes. A new study has found that most waves on Titan’s lakes reach only about 1 centimeter high, a finding that indicates a serene environment that could be good news for future probes sent to the surface of that moon. http://www.jsg.utexas.edu/news/2017/07/calm-lakes-on-titan-could-mean-smooth-landing-for-future-space-probes/ 7 comments science
