Topic: evaporation

Support superconducting-device fabrication at the Molecular Foundry, including cleanroom processes, qubit workflow development and cryogenic measurements. Work uses evaporation, microscopy, lithography and chemical processing, alongside careful sample tracking and reproducibility. The role is a one-year term at 20 hours weekly, with expected hourly pay of USD 28.78–36.69. Priority review is November 17, 2026.

Climate scientist Mathew Barlow explains why warming can intensify both drought and extreme rainfall. The episode follows water through a warmer atmosphere, connecting increased moisture capacity and evaporation with dry soils and stronger downpours. It distinguishes changes in average conditions from the most damaging extremes and discusses why infrastructure faces growing flood risks.
