Home gardens are key to better lives for vulnerable tribes in India, finds research
The forested hills and rolling fields in the state of Odisha are home to some of India's most vulnerable tribal groups, but a growing number of studies show that small home gardens—producing millet, pulses, fresh fruits and vegetables—could be ke.....»»
Climate change threatens global fisheries
The diet quality of fish across large parts of the world's oceans could decline by up to 10% as climate change impacts an integral part of marine food chains, a major study has found......»»
Climate change and nutrient fluctuations disrupt networks in lakes
Thanks to a unique data set from ten Swiss lakes, an international team of researchers led by Eawag has succeeded in reconstructing entire ecological plankton networks and determining how they respond to climate change and phosphate levels. The resul.....»»
Integrated grafting system developed for passion fruit plantlets
Passion fruit has become an important fruit crop in Taiwan and Southeast Asia due to its special taste and nutrient-rich flesh. However, it is seriously harmed by viruses, blight, and brown spot diseases. As a result of virus disease, producers have.....»»
A deeper dive into wintry, carbon-absorbing Antarctic waters
Every year as the austral winter sets in, frigid Antarctic air blasts the Southern Ocean. The chill dissipates the warmth of the ocean's surface water, and cold, dense layers form in the sea's upper reaches. Known as Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW), t.....»»
Hollow bones that let dinosaurs become giants evolved at least three times independently, shows study
Dinosaurs as big as buses or five-story buildings would not be possible if their bones were dense and heavy like ours. Like present-day birds, dinosaurs had hollow bones with inner structures known as air sacs, which made their skeletons lighter and.....»»
Decline in nutrient load and sea-level rise: Winners and losers in the Wadden Sea
A team of researchers, including Senckenberg scientists Prof. Dr. Ingrid Kröncke and Dr. Anja Singer, has detected a significant decrease in the abundance, biomass, and spatial distribution of characteristic benthic species such as snails, mussels,.....»»
Study analyzes avian cross-country biodiversity changes over a year
There is much more to avian biodiversity in the United States than the number of different species living in a given region or community, but the diversity of birds' ecosystem contributions—assessed through measures of their diet, body structure an.....»»
Future Apple "Body ID" could increase health awareness, offer diet advice
Apple is looking beyond Touch ID and Face ID to a future system where a user's entire body can be scanned to confirm identity and perform health analysis.The patent application makes no mention of hair recognitionNewly-revealed patent application, "E.....»»
Estuaries face higher nutrient loads in the future—particularly on the Atlantic coast
A new study finds that the Atlantic Coast and eastern Gulf Coast of the United States are likely to see significant increases in nutrient loading in coming decades, putting those areas at heightened risk of experiencing harmful algal blooms......»»
Warming and internal nutrient loading together interfere with long-term stability of lake restoration
Urban lakes are ubiquitous worldwide and tend to be highly eutrophic, indicating an increase in the frequency, duration and magnitude of harmful algal blooms as a widespread threat to ecological and human health......»»
iPhone 15 Pro Max camera bump could go on a diet

Why UK supermarkets are rationing food and how to prevent future shortages
Calls for the government to provide better support to U.K. food producers have intensified recently as supermarkets have been forced to ration sales of some fresh produce. Weather-related disruption has caused supply shortages of vegetables from plac.....»»
Nutrient uptake in citrus rootstock affected by huanglongbing
Huanglongbing (HLB) is presumably caused by the phloem-limited bacteria, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), and is one of the most devastating diseases of citrus. A distinctive chlorotic mottle on fully expanded leaves is one of the identifyin.....»»
