measurements

“If we had arrived a week earlier with Voyager 2, then the spacecraft would have made completely different measurements, and our discoveries would have been very different. Voyager 2 arrived at just the wrong time!”

To answer that question, researchers recently analyzed millions of measurements of air turbulence collected by commercial aircraft.

The researchers gathered all the available measurements of methanethiol in seawater, added those they had made in the Southern Ocean and the Mediterranean coast, and statistically related them to seawater temperature, obtained from satellites.

The research also revealed that collecting multiple brain scans from the same person over time can improve reliability for some brain measurements but may actually reduce reliability for others, depending on what is being studied.

To support this future research, the team seeks long-term, open-access AID datasets that include a wide range of sensor measurements of possible factors and a diverse cohort of people with T1D.
