Study clears the waters on a dirty threat to Hawai‘i’s reefs
Sediment pollution from land has severe consequences for fragile coral reef ecosystems, and Hawai‘i is no exception: Soil erosion from development and agriculture creates excess sediment that chronically muddies reefs across the state, making it difficult for corals and fish to thrive. But what are the most effective means to prevent sediments from reaching the reefs? And once sediments reach the reefs, how quickly are they flushed out by wind and tide? A new study answers some of these questions.
5 things you might not know about mountains and climate change

How to Prevent Five Common Failures in Robotic Welding Systems
Is your robotic welding operation costing time and money for problems like burnbacks, premature contact tip wear, loss of tool center point (TCP) or other issues? These common failures in robotic welding can be costly, resulting in downtime and unplanned part replacement. Even issues that seem minor, such as the wire sticking to the contact tip and forcing tip replacement, can cost thousands of dollars per day when you consider lost consumables, cell downtime and labor costs for changeover.
Study clears the waters on a dirty threat to Hawai‘i’s reefs
Of all the threats facing Hawai’i’s coasts and coral reefs — including overfishing and “hot blobs” — one of the trickiest to stop, it turns out, is mud. Sediment pollution from land has severe consequences for fragile coral reef ecosystems, and Hawai‘i is no exception: Soil erosion from development and agriculture creates excess sediment that chronically muddies reefs across the state, making it difficult for corals and fish to thrive.
