Just 12% of the #GlobalGoals targets are on track. Progress on 50% is weak and insufficient. The road ahead is steep. But it is one we can and must travel – together – for the people we serve. news.un.org/en/story/2023/…

We're delighted that our Chancellor, the Right Honourable Baroness Ashton of Upholland GCMG, has been appointed to the Most Noble Order of the Garter by His Majesty The King. Find out more about the Chancellor and this honour: warwick.ac.uk/newsandevents/…

Excited to share that we have a new 30GB DNS dataset on blastnet.github.io! This data is from a parametric study of H2 flames by Prof. Bruno Savard at Poly Montreal. I'll be uploading >10 TB of data from the same study soon! Config. paper link: doi.org/10.1016/j.comb…

The Amazon rainforest is one of the most vital major ecosystems on Earth—but it is under threat. In this issue of Science, researchers underscore the rapid and profound changes occurring in the Amazon resulting from ever-increasing human activity. scim.ag/1iX

PRFluids Editors' Suggestion: Prediction and manipulation of hydrodynamic rogue waves via nonlinear spectral engineering Alexey Tikan, et al. Localized wave packets can be engineered to evolve as a rogue wave with a prescribed solitonic and radiative content

PRFluids Editors' Suggestion: Synchronized states of hydrodynamically coupled filaments and their stability Smitha Maretvadakethope, Yongyun Hwang, and Eric E. Keaveny Article: go.aps.org/3waI8re Bifurcations captured by extending Adler’s equation for coupled oscillators

PRFluids Letter: Minimum principle for the flow of inelastic non-Newtonian fluids in macroscopic heterogeneous porous media Laurent Talon Letter: go.aps.org/3sf3we3 non-Newtonian fluids in porous media can follow a minimum principle like minimum dissipation in Stokes flow

Climate change: UK plants now flowering a month earlier bbc.in/3geWKyb

New research in @RSocPublishing #ProcB reveals that marine heatwaves associated with the #ClimateCrisis are bringing down coral populations in the Mediterranean, some as much as up to 80 to 90%. #ClimateChange phys.org/news/2022-01-c…

Can high #ventilation flow rates hinder the removal of contaminants? Some scenarios exhibit short-circuiting, whereby "the ventilating flow passes to the outlet without being entrained into the upper layer via thermal convection." #flow #mixing @JFluidMech bit.ly/3xYMRNm

PRFluids Letter: Three-dimensional turbulence generated homogeneously by magnetic particles A. Cazaubiel, et al. Letter: go.aps.org/3FehyR1 An experiment with remotely driven small magnetic particles generates stationary, homogeneous, and isotropic turbulence

COP26 climate deal: 'It won't save us from drowning' bbc.in/3kUJAJN

The drying of a drop of human #blood exhibits coupled physical mechanisms, such as Marangoni flow, evaporation and wettability. Different drying patterns are observed for blood from anaemic, hyperlipidaemic, and `healthy’, people.🩸 @JFluidMech doi.org/10.1017/S00221…

Synopsis on PRFluids Editors' Suggestion: Dynamics of migrating sand dunes interacting with obstacles Synopsis: go.aps.org/3biypVG Article: go.aps.org/3GoXo8j A simple experiment finds when a migrating sand dune crosses over an obstacle or gets trapped against it.
