Parched Earth soaks up water, slowing sea level rise
2016-02-12 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: As glaciers melt due to climate change, the increasingly hot and parched Earth is absorbing some of that water inland, slowing sea level rise, NASA experts said Thursday. Satellite measurements over the past decade show for the first time that the Earth's continents have soaked up and stored an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water in soils, lakes and underground aquifers, the experts said in a study in the journal Science. This has temporarily slowed the rate of sea level rise by about 20 percent,...

Irrigation System Controller helps farmers optimize water use.
2016-02-12 14:31:05| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Allowing farmers to apply consistent amount of water on area covered by center-pivot corner arm, Irrigate-IQ™ uniform corner prevents over- and under-watering through uniform application. Algorithms enable consistent water application regardless of position of corner arm. To minimize risk of application overlaps or gaps, solution controls each individual nozzle based on desired application depth and position of corner arm. Product works with multiple brands of corner arm equipment.

On/Off-Grid Inverter supports PV water heating.
2016-02-12 14:31:05| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Capable of switching between on-grid and off-grid mode automatically, On/Off-Grid CyboInverter can be set up to power electric water heater as primary goal in off-grid mode. When hot water reaches temperature setpoint, inverter will switch to on-grid mode to supply solar power to grid. System can also be set up to run in on-grid mode while grid is up. When grid is down, it can keep electric water heater running in off-grid mode.

Increasing water on land slowing down rising seas
2016-02-12 09:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Indo Asian News Service: While ice sheets and glaciers continue to melt, climate change over the past decade has caused Earth's continents to soak up and store an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water in soils, lakes and underground aquifers -- temporarily slowing the rate of sea level rise by about 20 percent, scientists have revealed. New measurements from a NASA satellite have allowed researchers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, California and University of California-Irvine, to identify and quantify,...
