Beat the clocks going back with a sunrise alarm that can 'revolutionise winter mornings'

The clocks are set to change this weekend, Sunday October 27 at 2am. While we do gain an extra hour of sleep, the clocks going back also means darker mornings and shorter days, which can have an unpleasant impact on our morale and productivity.

Fresh warning as experts say Pacific Ocean closing off to form new super continent
READ MORE:Top AI experts warn groundbreaking new tech could spark 'nuclear-scale' catastropheCalculations have placed the forming of a new supercontinent in 200 or 300million years where the Earth’s landmasses will form with the Americas and Asia that will collide to create Amasia.Making use of supercomputer simulations, the scientists at Curtin University in Perth, Australia have made use of supercomputer simulations which has led them to their prediction.Writing in the National Science Review, they said: “Earth's known supercontinents are believed to have formed in vastly different ways, with two endmembers being introversion and extroversion.“The former involves the closure of the internal oceans formed during the break-up of the previous supercontinent, whereas the latter involves the closure of the previous external superocean.”They added: “However, it is unclear what caused such a diverging behaviour of supercontinent cycles that involved first-order interaction between subducting tectonic plates and the mantle. "Here we address this question through 4-D geodynamic modelling using realistic tectonic setups.”The world's oldest known supercontinent, Nuna, came together about 1.8 billion years ago, and Chuan Huang, from Curtin's Earth Dynamics Research Group says a supercontinent is due to form in a "couple of hundred of million years' time".He said: “Over the past 2billion years, Earth's continents have collided together to form a supercontinent every 600million years, known as the supercontinent cycle.
