A temperature jump of 400°C at a depth of 2 km—it’s possible in Krafla to cook a steak!
This study explains the heat transfer between a magma reservoir and the surrounding rock in the high-enthalpy geothermal exploration area of Krafla, Iceland. Thermomechanical numerical models explain the sudden jump […]
Unprecedented mineral and organic compounds discovered in Mars’ Jezero Crater
The Perseverance rover has uncovered sedimentary rocks containing minerals and organic matter organized into structures never before seen on Mars, opening up new perspectives on the Red Planet’s past habitability. […]
The carbon footprint of research infrastructures challenges the environmental responsibility of INSU laboratoires
To limit global warming to less than 2°C, it is necessary to radically reduce current greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Scientists should also participate in this effort as part of their […]
