Climatic trends, even if distant, have significant implication for India

Business Standard: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is in the process of putting out its fifth series of assessment reports. There are three components in this series. The report on the first component - science - was released at the end of September. The other two - impacts and mitigation - will be published in March and April 2014. While we wait for the perspectives that those reports will provide on strategic responses, the assessments made in this one must provoke some thought on the trajectory of...

Distant Quakes Trigger Temblors in the Oil Patch: Study
2013-07-12 21:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Daily Climate: Wells filled with waste injection fluids at oil and gas fields across the United States are at risk of small earthquakes triggered by larger temblors across the globe, according to a new study published Thursday. Waste injection wells are on the rise as domestic energy production soars and companies increasingly use water and chemicals to unlock natural gas from shale or force oil from wells, a process known as hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. As oil and gas industries pump waste into sub-surface...
Distant seismic activity can trigger quakes at 'fracking' sites
2013-07-11 13:09:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Powerful earthquakes thousands of miles (km) away can trigger swarms of minor quakes near wastewater-injection wells like those used in oil and gas recovery, scientists reported on Thursday, sometimes followed months later by quakes big enough to destroy buildings. The discovery, published in the journal Science by one of the world's leading seismology labs, threatens to make hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking," which involves injecting fluid deep underground, even more controversial. It comes...

VLA Gives Deep, Detailed Image Of Distant Universe
2013-05-03 04:25:41| rfglobalnet News Articles
Staring at a small patch of sky for more than 50 hours with the ultra-sensitive Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), astronomers have for the first time identified discrete sources that account for nearly all the radio waves coming from distant galaxies.
