Urban flooding is becoming a growing concern in densely developed neighborhoods, where paved surfaces limit infiltration and intense rainfall can overwhelm drainage systems. Low impact development measures, such as rain barrels (RBs) and rain gardens (RGs), help manage stormwater
Urban flooding is becoming a growing concern in densely developed neighborhoods, where paved surfaces limit infiltration and intense rainfall can overwhelm drainage systems. Low impact development measures, such as rain barrels (RBs) and rain gardens (RGs), help manage stormwater close to where it falls. RBs collect rooftop runoff for later nonpotable use, while RGs use vegetated depressions and soil to encourage infiltration.

One extra quantum dot helps balance speed and stability in spin qubits
Quantum computers need qubits that can be controlled both quickly and reliably. Yet making semiconductor spin qubits faster often makes them more sensitive to electrical noise, creating a difficult trade-off.

JWST and ALMA reveal a dusty, rapidly growing black hole in the early universe
A new study reveals a dust-reddened quasar from a time when the universe was less than a billion years old. Located at a redshift of 6.5488, the object J1440+0019 contains a rapidly accreting supermassive black hole with a mass of about 1.1 billion suns. The paper was posted to t
