Planetary scientists want to identify the regions where these explosions are happening and make a weather map of the last few years, by using the fans to trace the wind directions.
The Swedish government is funding research into the feasibility of using a wind-turbine driven oxygen pump in the Baltic, following studies carried out last year by the University of Gothenburg, which looked at the effect of pumping oxygen-rich surface water to the bottom of two Swedish fjords.
Using electricity generated by the wind, "Delmarva Power will be able to light about 50, 000 homes a year, every year" for the duration of the 25-year contract, Lanard said, with first power expected by 2012.
Block grants are wrong and states will wind up using the funds for other purposes.

The company has a deal with Linux purveyor Red Hat (nasdaq: RHAT - news - people ) to develop Linux for the embedded market, using Wind River tools, middleware and services.
Wirth has decided to design the new Virgin car without using a wind-tunnel, a tool for shaping a car's aerodynamics that has been de rigueur in F1 for 30 years.
Mr Ford said people needed to "wind down" the language they were using.
According to their website the team was attempting to row unassisted across the Atlantic Ocean, a daring 3569 nautical mile journey, using human power to propel the boat, and solar and wind power to charge its instruments.
In addition, it is calling for new offshore wind farms to be connected to the National Grid using underground cables to existing substations.
To match that output using wind energy, you'd need a land area nearly the size of Rhode Island.
Instead, he has decided to design the car wholly using computational fluid dynamics - which current teams use alongside wind tunnels.
Imaginations ran wild and creativity abounded using wind and alternate forms of energy, but what most involved in the project took away was a sense of possibility.
Instead of using aircraft-borne chemicals as seeds, the researchers propose spraying seawater from unmanned, wind-powered, satellite-controlled vessels that would cruise the latitudes where hurricanes form since droplets of brine have a similar effect to dry ice and silver iodide.
The energy storage system will produce hydrogen using excess power generated from renewable energy, primarily wind power.
And their report out today really does seem to show that, for the UK at least, wind power is simply too expensive to be worth using.
She said she thought the first few calls were a "wind up" before she realised people were using her number by mistake.
As a result, a system using wind and solar has to be built with sufficient system capacity from conventional sources to be handle the system full load without the wind and solar systems.

Energy storage, such as using trailers of batteries, to store renewable electricity also will help utilities manage the supply and demand of solar and wind.
