Earthquakes Reveal Deep Secrets Beneath East Asia

Supersized Science ·

2015/05/18

Host Jorge Salazar interviews scientists Min Chen of Rice University and Jeroen Tromp of Princeton University. An international science team reported a discovery of gigantic rock structures hidden deep under East Asia, centered on the Tibetan Plateau. Scientists used supercomputers to process earthquake data and make images in 3-D down to depths of about 900 kilometers, or about 560 miles below ground. Scientists from China, Canada, and the U.S. worked together to publish their results March of 2015

Supercomputing the Evolution of a Model Flower

2015/01/27

Scientists have used supercomputers to find what they say is the best evidence yet that a plant's genes sensitive to cold and drought will help it adapt to changes in its environment. What they studied in plants was gene expression, instructions coded in DNA that regulate how many proteins it makes. Gene expression gives rise to traits such as tolerance of cold or drought, and it can evolve through natural selection to help a plant cope with environments out of its comfort zone. The results of the

Interstellar Mystery Solved by Supercomputer Simulations

2015/01/27

Astrophysicists have been puzzled by their observations since the 1970s that only a small fraction of matter in the cloud becomes a star and part of a galaxy. They found a lot less of the universe's mass than expected in the middle of galaxies. Things changed when a multi-university collaboration produced a set of new supercomputer models of galaxies called FIRE, The Feedback in Realistic Environments. FIRE simulations ran on the Stampede supercomputer at TACC, an XSEDE resource funded by the
