Researchers in China have developed an AI system capable of predicting critical transitions, known as tipping points, in complex systems. This breakthrough could lead to better forecasting of natural disasters, financial crises, and other significant events, providing valuable time for preventative measures.
Groundbreaking research led by Dr. Catherine Booth from Imperial College London and the University of Bristol is revolutionizing our understanding of volcanic eruptions. By studying the origins of magma up to 20 kilometers below the Earth’s surface, scientists have challenged previous assumptions and emphasized the crucial role of magma buoyancy. This transformative research has implications for predictive models and sheds light on the influence of factors like water and carbon dioxide in magma.
