Bachelor's Degree in Meteorology from the University of Havana (Cuba) in 2017 and Diploma in Environmental Management, linked with Land-use Planning, from the Higher Institute of Applied Sciences and Technologies (InsTEC), attached to the University of Havana. She developed her thesis on the implementation of a very short-term solar radiation forecasting system through image extrapolation methods, resulting in a novel scientific study in Cuba.
Laura Faz worked for two years at the environmental consultancy GAMMA S.A. in Havana, linked to projects for the preparation of studies of natural risks and Disaster Reduction Plans. Specialist in the area of natural disaster management, she also has experience in the implementation of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and knowledge in Green Marketing. A fan of meteorological photography, she was selected to participate in the National Geographic Photocamp Cuba in 2016.
The next solar eclipse will be a "ring of fire." Unlike the last eclipse that occurred in April, we will see this one from southern latitudes and it will not be total, but rather annular. Discover its date and from which countries it will be visible.
Recent studies reveal how climate change would be affecting the composition of mollusc and crustacean species. This, in addition to affecting its flavor, initiates a chain of problems in Chile, which is today the third largest exporter of molluscs worldwide.
The results of new research point to the cause of heating in the Sun's outer layers. Using observations with large telescopes and satellites, an attempt has been made to answer this question.
For decades, scientists have speculated about strong global cooling following a powerful volcanic eruption. Now, new studies provide more precise answers on this subject.
In 2015, a video that apparently showed the meeting point between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans went viral on social media. Where were these images captured? How can this phenomenon be explained? What are its consequences?
Starting in 2006, the dwarf planet classification began to be used. Pluto was considered, until that moment, the ninth planet in the Solar System: what happened to remove it from our planetary group?
Imagine that you are part of a jury in blind auditions to determine a person's appearance by their voice. A difficult task, right? The sounds we produce are revealing, to a large extent, of who we are. But they have not always been the same.
The occurrence of animal hybridization in nature highlights the impact of man's actions. Will we be exterminating wildlife as we know it?
All planetary models have suggested that, due to their properties, gold and other precious metals should sink to the Earth's core, however they are found in the Earth's crust. There is already a possible answer to this mystery.
