| January-October 2014 temperatures highest on record Posted: 29 Nov 2014 04:57 AM PST The global average temperature over land and ocean surfaces for January to October 2014 was the highest on record, according to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. It said October was the hottest since records began in 1880.       |
| Scanning tunneling microscopy: Computer simulations sharpen insights into molecules Posted: 27 Nov 2014 05:23 AM PST The resolution of scanning tunneling microscopes can be improved dramatically by attaching small molecules or atoms to their tip. The resulting images were the first to show the geometric structure of molecules and have generated a lot of interest among scientists over the last few years.  |
| Brain regions that encode words, grammar, story identified Posted: 26 Nov 2014 11:42 AM PST Scientists have produced the first integrated computational model of reading, identifying which parts of the brain are responsible for such sub-processes as parsing sentences, determining the meaning of words and understanding relationships between characters. They based their results on brain scan of people reading a Harry Potter book.  |
