A team of entomologists and botanists at the International Center of Insect Physiology and Ecology in Nairobi and the University of Pretoria has found that adding silicon to soil can help tomato plants fight off the destructive ...
A recent study by Dr. Ellen Green, published in the International Journal of Paleopathology, analyzed the faunal assemblage recovered from the Romano-British ritual shaft at Nescot. Despite only being used for a relatively ...
Anatolia, the western part of modern-day Turkey that sits at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe, is a fossil-rich land crucial to unlocking the mysteries surrounding the evolution of mammals over the last 10 million ...
Using Spektr-RG and Chandra space observatories, Chinese astronomers have investigated a nearby spiral galaxy known as NGC 7793. Results of the new study, published March 13 on the arXiv preprint server, deliver important ...
Skeletal analysis at Tombos, an ancient Egyptian colonial settlement in Nubia, reveals a more complex labor and social hierarchy than previously understood. Researchers from Leiden University, Purdue University, and the University ...
A pair of researchers at the University of Waterloo in Canada, working with a colleague from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in the U.S., have created a model to visualize how water flows in Antarctica's Aurora Subglacial ...
Does the proton decay? While this was a famous prediction of Grand Unified Theories (GUTS) developed in the 1970s and 1980s, experimentalists have ruled it out—or rather, put lower limits on its mean lifetime of about 1034 ...
Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), astronomers have detected a new giant molecular cloud in the Milky Way galaxy. The newfound cloud has a size of nearly 200 light years and its mass is estimated to be some 160,000 solar ...
In recent years, some large physics experiments worldwide have been trying to gather evidence of a nuclear process known as neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay. This is a rare process that entails the simultaneous decay ...
A team of scientists with the Sea Mammal Research Unit, School of Biology, University of St Andrews, in the U.K. has found that gray seals are able to monitor their blood oxygen levels as a means to prevent drowning. In their ...
