Technology tamfitronics The critical role of Atlantic-Arctic water mixing in global ocean circulation uncoveredby Sophie JenkinsLondon, UK (SPX) Sep 01, 2024A new study has highlighted the significant role that the interaction between Atlantic and Arctic waters plays in sustaining the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a key process for regulating the Earth's climate.Researchers from the University of Southampton, the Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar, the National Oceanography Centre, and Stockholm University analyzed ocean data spanning from 1979 to 2021 to gain a deeper understanding of how the mixing of these waters supports the AMOC.The AMOC functions as a vast ocean conveyor belt, transporting warm water from tropical regions northward and returning cold water southward, which helps distribute heat across the planet. This circulation is crucial for maintaining relatively mild temperatures in...

Technology tamfitronics Active lifestyle headphone brand Shokz has introduced the OpenRun Pro 2, a new sports headphone model priced at $319 in Australia.The device features the company’s 10th generation bone conduction technology, incorporating a new system called DualPitch.This technology combines bone conduction for mid and high frequencies with air conduction for bass frequencies. The previous generation OpenRun Pro only used bone conduction.The OpenRun Pro 2 utilizes a dual reed and coil design, which aims to stabilize the vibration system and improve vocal clarity. The headphones employ an algorithm that assigns sound elements to specific drivers, intended to create a balanced audio experience.Maintaining the open-ear design characteristic of Shokz products, the OpenRun Pro 2 allows users to hear ambient sounds while listening to audio. The device includes ergonomic ear hooks and a unibody frame designed for...

Technology tamfitronics New technology will allow the UK to receive earlier warnings of floods and droughts, the Government has said.As part of a scheme to improve the Government’s response to extreme weather, a UK-wide network is to be established, with a focus on pinpointing where incidents are likely to occur and implementing plans to limit their impact.The project will aim to “halt damage and cut eye-watering cost to the economy”, the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology said.There is no time to waste in backing our researchers and innovators to ensure we are better prepared for floods and droughts strikingTechnology Secretary Peter KyleData will be gathered by sensors in rivers across the UK to identify potential flashpoints, which the Government hopes will save lives, and reduce damage to homes and businesses.Technology Secretary Peter Kyle said:...
