Sep. 22, 2023 One result of climate change is that spring is arriving earlier. However, migratory birds are not keeping up with these developments and arrive too late for the peak in food availability when it is ...
Sep. 21, 2023 Reducing CO2 levels in the atmosphere will take more than cutting emissions -- we will also need to capture and store the excessive volumes of already-emitted carbon. A team of plant scientists argue ...
Sep. 21, 2023 The western edge of Chicago -- including the North and South Lawndale, East Garfield Park, Archer Heights and Brighton Park neighborhoods -- experiences up to 32% higher concentrations of nitrogen ...
Sep. 21, 2023 Trees depend on fungi for their well-being. As climate change and global warming cause higher temperatures and amplified drought, little is known about how these important fungi will respond. To ...
Sep. 21, 2023 Geothermal heat offers a promising source of renewable energy with almost zero emissions, but it remains a relatively expensive option to generate electricity. A new technique may help prevent ...
Sep. 21, 2023 In the 'weather kitchen,' the interplay between the Azores High and Icelandic Low has a substantial effect on how much warm water the Atlantic transports to the Arctic along the Norwegian ...
Sep. 21, 2023 Almost 80% of plastic in the waste stream ends up in landfills or accumulates in the environment. Scientists have now developed a technology that converts a conventionally unrecyclable mixture of ...
Sep. 20, 2023 New research examines the 'revolution' in the study of deforestation brought about by satellites, and analyzing which kinds of policies might limit climate-altering ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Scientists and industry leaders worldwide are looking for answers on how to make aviation sustainable by 2050 and choosing a viable sustainable fuel is a major sticking point. Aerospace engineers ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Building on work in human-computer interaction that aims to incorporate sustainability and reuse into the field, researchers introduce 'garbatrage,' a framework for prototype builders ...
Sep. 20, 2023 A new study suggests patches of fertile soil in the Amazon, known as dark earth, were intentionally produced by ancient Amazonians as a way to improve the soil and sustain large and complex ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Researchers have developed a method that lets them genetically modify each cell differently in animals. This allows them to study in a single experiment what used to require many animal experiments. ...
Sep. 20, 2023 A scientific breakthrough brings mass production of the next generation of cheaper and lighter perovskite solar cells one step ...
Sep. 20, 2023 The bright lights of big cities could be causing an evolutionary adaptation for smaller eyes in some birds, a new study indicates. Researchers found that two common songbirds, the Northern Cardinal ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Plants are often attributed with abilities similar to those known in the animal or human world. Trees are said to have feelings and can therefore care for their offspring, like mothers. Researchers ...
Sep. 20, 2023 The consequences of a warming climate frequently dominated the news this summer, from devastating wildfires and floods to deadly heat waves across the globe. Reducing harm from climate change is a ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Marine virologists analyzed sediment from the Mariana Trench, the deepest place on Earth, and identified a new ...
Sep. 20, 2023 A research team has achieved a significant breakthrough in the development of a hybrid silicon ...
Sep. 20, 2023 Scientists have discovered a new technique which will shed light on the phenomena of winter monsoons -- the heavy autumn and winter rainfalls which can cause floods and landslides across southeast ...
Sep. 20, 2023 X-rays of an ancient jawless fish shows earliest-known example of internal cartilage skull, unlike that of any other known ...
