  • Why Some Rainbows Turn White

    5 days ago

    Why Some Rainbows Turn White

    Rainbows are usually known for their brilliant colors—but under certain conditions, they can appear almost completely white. In this episode, we explore the fascinating science behind fogbows, sometimes called white rainbows. These rare atmospheric phenomena form when sunlight interacts with extremely tiny water droplets in fog, creating a pale, ghostly arc instead of the vivid spectrum we normally expect. Why do the colors disappear? How are fogbows different from ordinary rainbows? And what other strange optical illusions can the atmosphere create? We explore the science of light, water droplets, and atmospheric conditions to uncover why one of nature’s most colorful spectacles can sometimes turn almost completely white. Because even when the colors disappear… the physics behind the rainbow is still extraordinary. 🌈 Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kurzgesagt-podcast-science-revealed--6600013/support.

  • Why does soil matter?

    05/06/2024

    Why does soil matter?

    There is still so much to learn about the mysterious realm of soil. From the microscopic organisms essential to life on Earth, to the complex and wonderful associations between plants and fungi, the ground beneath your feet is teeming with life. Dr Mya-Rose Craig explores soil in this episode of Unearthed: Nature needs us from the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Find out how our world’s health is impacted by forces we may not even be able to see, and how this plays out on the scale of crop health, biodiversity in environments and the nutritional wealth of landscapes. We head to Kew’s world-class fungarium with Professor Irina Druzhinina, and into Wakehurst’s diverse woodlands where conservation research is going on to understand gas exchange between the earth, atmosphere and vegetation. Dr Gary Egan and Dr Phil Wilkes show us around this living laboratory in Sussex. Mya also hears how conservation of Madagascan grasslands, which are important carbon sinks, goes hand-in-hand with providing value to local communities through livestock grazing. And hear from Dr Feng Cai, whose research into plastic-eating fungi on China’s saltmarshes is powering innovative research into cleaning up this global pollution problem and supporting important habitats. Then it’s off to FarmED in Oxfordshire where “Rooted” author Sarah Langford meets with fellow farmers Ian Wilkinson and Andy Cato of Wildfarmed (and Clarkson’s Farm) to discuss how modern farming is transitioning to working with soil regeneration and longevity of our environments in mind. But it’s not just about changing hearts and minds, they chat about the social, economic and policy changes that are vital in supporting farmers to save our beloved landscapes.

    Ep. 3: The Americans

    All North Korean IT worker schemes hinge on one thing: a willing participant in America. We found one, and knocked on her door.Experts have dubbed some of these Americans “laptop farmers.” The North Koreans call them “facilitators” – people willing to host multiple laptops in their home and happy to not ask too many questions. But identifying these people can be hard: unless you have access to a private Discord channel where North Korean IT workers talk freely among themselves.In Episode 3, host and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times, Nicole Perlroth, goes to Ohio to try to understand how and why anyone would help a hostile, authoritarian regime, launder their true whereabouts, and fuel their nuclear weapons program.To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People.To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, T. J. Raphael, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang.

    Too Good To Be True

    The age of online dating. It certainly has its ups and downs. Sure, it takes away a bit of that face-to-face connection you’d get meeting someone at a bar. But it also means you don’t have to be in the same bar as someone to meet them. There’s a whole world full of options right at your fingertips. And it allowed Sophie to meet Stelios. And it’s a normal way to meet someone. Gone are the days of being concerned about creeps lurking in dark rooms on their keyboards, or embarrassment about connecting with someone through a screen. These days, you know who people are when you speak to them online...don’t you?
