GeoOptics has launched the Climate Mobile 1.2 iPhone and iPad app for free to environmental enthusiasts and citizen scientists alike.

Climate Mobile provides up-to-date information on the global climate like temperatures, ice cover, atmospheric CO2, solar activity and weather reports. The app gives you access to data from international satellites and surface instruments, along with global temperature records from NASA and NOAA going back more than 130 years.

With Climate Mobile you can graph data, create charts, and compare variables with Climate Mobile’s built in tools. If you make a research breakthrough, you can email it to yourself. The app also offers educational tutorials, as well as tutorials to aid your data analysis.

Video overview and previews of the app:

Discovered a New Carbon-Carbon Chemical Bond

di Chiara D'Errico
Pubblicato il 16/10/2024

A group of researchers from Hokkaido University has provided the first experimental evidence of the existence of a new type of chemical bond: the single-electron covalent bond, theorized by Linus Pauling in 1931 but never verified until now. Using derivatives of hexaarylethane (HPE), the scientists were able to stabilize this unusual bond between two carbon atoms and study it with spectroscopic techniques and X-ray diffraction. This discovery opens new perspectives in understanding bond chemistry and could lead to the development of new materials with innovative applications.

Chemistry

After nearly a year of review, on September 25, a study was published in Nature that has sparked a lot of discussion, especially among chemists. A group of researchers from Hokkaido University synthesized a molecule that experimentally demonstrated the existence of a new type of chemical bond, something that does not happen very often.
