Human activity: A double-edged sword in the face of drought
Earth and environmental scientists have reported that, as human socio-economic activities increase, greenhouse gas emissions will rise, leading to more frequent extreme weather events such as droughts and floods. However, a research team from Pohang.....»»
Vision Pro bug fixed; websites can no longer fill your room with bats
Apple has fixed a Vision Pro bug which would have allowed a website to fill your room with an unlimited number of virtual 3D objects. Those objects – flying bats in the proof of concept – would then persist even after you quit Safari. The bug.....»»
Scientists solve the puzzle of directional hearing underwater
When underwater, humans cannot determine where a sound comes from. Sound travels about five times faster there than on land. That makes directional hearing, or sound localization, nearly impossible because the human brain determines the origin of a s.....»»
Science Is Full of Errors. Bounty Hunters Are Here to Find Them
A new project is paying researchers to find errors in other scientists’ work. The only problem? Even error hunters make mistakes......»»

New insights into how cell shape influences protein transport rates
When a cell spreads out or changes its shape to adapt to its environment, the transport rate of proteins between the nucleus and cytoplasm changes. Previously, scientists assumed this change was caused by a shift in the size of the nuclear envelope's.....»»
Spectroscopic technique that singles out water molecules lying on the surface reveals how they relax after being excited
A more complete picture of how excited water molecules at an interface with air lose their energy has been uncovered by RIKEN scientists in a study published in the journal Nature Communications. This finding will be valuable for better understanding.....»»
