The forested Kanha Tiger Reserve, in the highlands of central India, is home to an abundance of rare wildlife. It also used to be home to thousands of people—that is, until they were moved out by the government to make way for endangered creatures.
Columbia University physics professor Andrew Millis has been named the 2017 recipient of the Hamburg Prize for Theoretical Physics for his groundbreaking research on the electronic properties of correlated materials.
New findings by Columbia researchers are among the first to show that a decline in biodiversity may also play a role in plants flowering earlier every year, magnifying the impact of climate change not just when plants flower, but on entire ecosystems.
A wide range of people gathered at Columbia University recently for the first conference on a burgeoning approach to science in space: conducting that research in collaboration with the private space industry.
New findings from scientists from The University of Texas at Austin Jackson School of Geosciences and Columbia University add evidence to one side of a long-standing debate on how magma from the Earth’s mantle cools to form the lower layers of crust.
