How planarians can regenerate during periods of starvation
Planarians are able to survive long periods of starvation unscathed by maintaining their stem cell pool and regenerative capacity. The molecular processes behind this are not yet known. Jena researchers from the Leibniz Institute on Aging—Fritz Lip.....»»
Study finds increasing frequency and scale of mass mortality events among farmed salmon since 2012
The frequency and scale of mass mortality events—events where large numbers of organisms die in short periods of time—among farmed salmon have increased since 2012, according to a study published in Scientific Reports......»»
Jet in Jupiter"s atmosphere found to fluctuate in roughly four-year periods
A team of planetary scientists affiliated with multiple institutions in the U.S. has found a jet in Jupiter's atmosphere that fluctuates in roughly four-year periods. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group describes how they found.....»»
Global warming may be behind an increase in the frequency and intensity of cold spells
Global warming caused by increased concentrations of greenhouse gases is already affecting our lives. Scorching summers, more intense heat waves, longer drought periods, more extended floods, and wilder wildfires are consequences linked to this warmi.....»»
Three things Apple got wrong with the Vision Pro launch
After a solid month of using Apple Vision Pro, I'm finding the product a lot easier to wear for longer periods of time than I expected. At the same time, I think Apple made at least three critical errors in the initial launch of its new spatial compu.....»»
Mercury rising: Study sheds new light on ancient volcanoes" environmental impact
Massive volcanic events in Earth's history that released large amounts of carbon into the atmosphere frequently correlate with periods of severe environmental change and mass extinctions. A new method to estimate how much and how rapidly carbon was r.....»»
Researchers reveal how cells regenerate protein factories at the endoplasmic reticulum
The synthesis of proteins in the cell is a key process of life. By this means, the genetic code of the genome is translated into the amino acid sequence of proteins. The process is complex—and has been studied in detail for decades......»»
Historical Architecture: Characteristics, Influences, Ambassadors and Sights
Historical architecture encompasses various architectural styles and periods characterized by distinct characteristics, influences, and ambassadors. The characteristics of historical architecture vary depending on the period and style. From the.....»»
Study finds polar bears unlikely to adapt to longer summers
More time stranded on land means greater risk of starvation for polar bears, a new study indicates......»»
Researchers uncover a key link in legume plant-bacteria symbiosis
Legume plants have the unique ability to interact with nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the soil, known as rhizobia. Legumes and rhizobia engage in symbiotic relations upon nitrogen starvation, allowing the plant to thrive without the need for externally.....»»
Increased rainfall threatens UK sea urchins: Study
Sea urchins exposed to diluted seawater for long periods show signs of physical deterioration, according to scientists from the British Antarctic Survey, the University of Cambridge, and the Scottish Association for Marine Science. Their study also f.....»»
Using isotopic measurements on stalagmites to investigate "climate hiccups"
Climate changes usually happen over long periods of time, but during the last glacial period, extreme fluctuations in temperature occurred within just a few years. Researchers at the University of Basel have now been able to prove the phenomenon also.....»»
A new study makes the case for asteroid strikes setting in motion global glaciation in the distant past
A research team has picked a side in the "Snowball Earth" debate over the possible cause of planet-wide deep freeze events that occurred in the distant past. According to their new study, these so-called "Snowball" Earth periods, in which the planet'.....»»
"It needs to be talked about earlier": Some children get periods at 8, years before menstruation is taught at school
Managing menstruation in public can be challenging at the best of times, but imagine being eight years old and having to deal with your period at school. You might need to change your pad during class and explain to your friends why you are not going.....»»
People are already ‘fixing’ the Vision Pro’s biggest problem
Several reviewers have noted that Apple’s Vision Pro headset can be uncomfortable after long periods, but some people have fixed that in various ingenious ways......»»
People are modding the Vision Pro to fix its comfort problem
Several reviewers have noted that Apple’s Vision Pro headset can be uncomfortable after long periods, but some people have fixed that in various ingenious ways......»»
European immigrants introduced farming to prehistoric North Africa, new research shows
The Neolithic age—when agriculture and animal farming were adopted—has become one of the most widely studied periods of social and economic transition in recent years. It was a period that drove great change in the evolution of human society......»»
"Old smokers": Strange new type of star discovered in Milky Way
Nearing the end of their life, they sit quietly for long periods of time, barely noticeable, before suddenly puffing out a cloud of smoke......»»
Researchers develop implantable device that can record a collection of individual neurons over months
Recording the activity of large populations of single neurons in the brain over long periods of time is crucial to further our understanding of neural circuits, to enable novel medical device-based therapies and, in the future, for brain–computer i.....»»
The OnePlus 12 could be quite literally the coolest smartphone
I’m sure you’ve noticed that when playing games for extended periods of time on your smartphone will result in it getting quite warm or hot to the touch. This is why more smartphone makers are introducing new methods of cooling their devices. But.....»»
Old times revived for climate adaptation
Extreme rainfall events are becoming more extreme and periods of drought are becoming more frequent. To keep the Dutch delta livable, adaptations will be needed, such as extra water buffers. The Netherlands has a long history of struggle against wate.....»»
