Floods Are Worsening but Engineers Worry National Rainfall Database Won’t Be Updated

The only member of the Atlas 15 team to provide comments was lead scientist Ken Kunkel, a principal research scholar at North Carolina State University’s Institute for Climate Studies. He has studied heavy precipitation for more than 30 years and hopes that completion of Atlas 15, volumes 1 and 2 will be the capstone of his career.

Advocates Protest Pesticide Measures in N.C. Senate Bill, Point to Potential Health Effects

North Carolina Health News
While there is premarket testing on pesticides, there’s no testing on people, said Jane Hoppin, an environmental epidemiologist at NC State University. Most people don’t know what’s in the pesticide they use, such as ant poison, which makes studying health effects difficult, she said.

Unlocking Room-Temperature Superfluorescence for Advanced Quantum Technologies

AZO Quantum
In a recent study published in Nature, the international research team at North Carolina State University details both the underlying process and the specific material requirements for achieving superfluorescence at room temperature. This research could provide a guide for creating materials that exhibit unusual quantum states – like superconductivity, superfluidity, or superfluorescence at higher temperatures.
