Back down to Earth
About a decade ago, systems biology hit the life sciences with the promise that it would revolutionize biological research and create new products, drugs and therapies along the way. As with so many over-hyped ‘breakthroughs’, it inevitably failed to deliver, prompting criticism from a number of eminent biologists. Nobel Prize winner Sydney Brenner, for example, accused systems biologists of us...
متن کاملBringing GRACE Down to Earth.
Introduction NASA’s Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), which is a joint mission of the United States and Germany, uses a pair of coupled satellites to measure spatial and temporal changes in the Earth’s gravity field. From these data, estimates of changes (time-variable anomalies) in mass are derived. In turn, the mass changes are attributed primarily to changes in water content (...
متن کاملEstimation of rain induced attenuation on earth- space path
This paper describes research on earth-space attenuation on a microwave communications link set up at Belgaum-RC Nagar (Karnataka State), India, during July to September, each year. The rain data secured from India Meteorological Department, Bangalore has been used for analysis with the live data of rainfall recorded with the aid of two tipping bucket rain gauges, and a disdrometer. A simple mo...
متن کاملBlue-Sky and Down-to-Earth
We discuss how traditional methods for understanding design requirements are leveraged to produce innovative and fundamentally new perspectives when using analogy. We call these analogous practice approaches, and illustrate two cases that both use analogy to achieve exploratory design with ethnography, by gathering data from a different setting than we intend to design for. We discuss how the u...
متن کاملBringing the Sun Down to Earth
The sun is often portrayed as a “laboratory for astrophysics” but it is a laboratory over which we have no control. Instead, solar physicists employ a wide range of theoretical, computational, and observational tools to study the magnetically driven activity on the sun. The challenge for these methods is that solar physics is extremely complex, making it difficult to isolate the key drivers of ...
