This year, artificial intelligence and sustainability will transform the way we manage water. Cities will have smart networks ...

a mere 0.002% of Earth’s total freshwater. However, the significance lies in the rapid movement of water through plants. This transit time, from absorption to release into the atmosphere, is among the ...

Chapman University researchers found that Earth’s plants store 786 km³ of water, with water cycling through them in just 5–18 days—much faster than other water cycle processes. This rapid transit, ...

Freshwater fish face a similarly dire situation, with 26% threatened, while 16% of dragonflies and damselflies are also in danger. The key factors behind these alarming trends include pollution from ...
