What does it take to keep water in a landscape that’s slowly forgetting how to hold it? Heliox investigates the drought that stunned a Canadian rainforest — and the ancient, low-tech, furry solution that gray infrastructure couldn’t match. A deep dive into watershed science, ecological restoration, and the surprising return of North America’s original hydraulic engineers.

Tiny defects in common minerals may reveal unexpected patterns in how Earth’s interior moves.

Ancient rocks are revealing that early Earth may not have been geologically still at all.

Using X-ray lasers, researchers at Stockholm University have been able to determine the existence of a critical point in supercooled water at around −63 °C and 1,000 atmospheres. Ordinary water at higher temperatures and lower pressures is strongly affected by the presence of this critical point, causing the origin of its strange properties. The findings are published in the journal Science.

Water, both omnipresent and essential for life on Earth, behaves very strangely in comparison with other substances. How water’s density, specific heat, viscosity and compressibility respond to changes in pressure and temperature is the complete opposite of other liquids that we know.

All matter shrinks when it is cooled, resulting in an increase in its density. One would therefore expect that water would have a high density at the freezing point. However, looking at a glass of ice water, everything is upside down, since—as we all know—ice cubes float. Strangely enough for the liquid state, water is the densest at 4 degrees C, and therefore it stays on the bottom whether it’s in a glass or in an ocean.
