Researchers from the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ are diving into the dusty environment that surrounds the sun—a search that could help to reveal how planets like Earth come into being.
A simple, scratch-and-sniff test could play a key role in curbing the spread of COVID-19, at a fraction of the cost of high-tech tests that are difficult to scale and take longer to return results, new Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder research suggests.
A long-term trend of ecological improvement is appearing in the mountains west of Boulder. Researchers from Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØBoulder have found that Niwot Ridge—a high alpine area of the Rocky Mountains, east of the Continental Divide—is slowly recovering from increased acidity caused by vehicle emissions in Colorado’s Front Range.
