The new observational study describes how air rises and falls in the atmosphere above the Earth’s surface, creating the world’s weather. This process of atmospheric circulation creates weather patterns and influences the climate of the planet. It is important to understand these processes in order to predict weather events, and to improve and test Fri, 22 Aug 2008 00:38:17 GMThttp://www.ginnn.com/news/1917612/research_reveals_ventriloquism_in_motion_how_sound_can_move_light.htmlLondon-based University scientists identify audiovisual illusion that shows that what we see can depend on our ears as much as on our eyes Research could have important implications for advertising, safety design and clinical diagnosis of dyslexia and autism Category: PressDate: 21 Aug 2008Fri, 22 Aug 2008 00:38:17 GMThttp://www.ginnn.com/news/1917493/bobble_clouds.htmlWhat is this weird cloud formation and how is it made?Fri, 22 Aug 2008 00:38:17 GMThttp://www.ginnn.com/news/1917492/world_heading_towards_cooler_2008.htmlGlobal temperatures recorded so far this year suggest is likely to emerge as the coolest this century, scientists say.Fri, 22 Aug 2008 00:38:17 GMThttp://www.ginnn.com/news/1917350/stellare_totgeburten_forscher_entlarven_braune_zwerge_als_dritte_klasse_von_himmelskorpern_neben_sternen_und_planeten.htmlDie Systematik kosmischer Körper muss offenbar überarbeitet werden. Forscher am Argelander-Institut für Astronomie der Universität Bonn haben herausgefunden, dass braune Zwerge als eine eigene Klasse neben Sternen und Planeten behandelt werden müssen. Bisher hielt man sie nur für zu klein geratene Sterne. Möglicherweise sind sie jedoch regelrechte stellare "Fehlgeburten". Die Wissenschaftler veröffentlichen ihre Ergebnisse in der Fachzeitschrift Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyFri, 22 Aug 2008 00:38:17 GMThttp://www.ginnn.com/news/1917349/eisfunde_vom_schnidejoch_–_1000_jahre_alter_als_otzi.htmlDie prähistorischen Objekte, die seit 2003 auf dem Schnidejoch im Berner Oberland aus dem Gletschereis aufgetaucht sind, haben sich als weit älter erwiesen als bisher angenommen. Sie stammen aus der Zeit um 4500 v. Chr. und sind damit mindestens 1000 Jahre älter als die Gletschermumie Ötzi. Dies wurde an einer internationalen Tagung von Archäologen und Klimawissenschaftern in Bern bekannt.

New research points to preventive exercises as an effective means to tackle the challenges children face when learning to read. The results achieved at the Centre of Excellence in Learning and Motivation Research were presented at the Academy of Finland’s science breakfast on 21 August.
