Shrubs on warming North Slope attract moose, hares

Snowshoe hares and moose, which are both relative newcomers to Alaska's North Slope, may have become established in the area with the help of warming temperatures and thicker vegetation.

Why we're sequencing the genomes of Canada's iconic species

Last year, to commemorate Canada's 150th birthday —and to lay a foundation for Canadian research excellence for the next 150 years—a group of scientists in our country embarked upon the Canada 150 Sequencing Initiative ...

Groundwater information is no longer out of depth

A UConn Ph.D. candidate and a faculty member have developed a novel way of gathering data about streams fed by groundwater that provide important insights about the possible effects of climate change.

Hares, turtles, and the race to unravel genetic diversity

If you thought the only way to solve a puzzle was by looking at a picture of its end result as you go, guess again. Using an innovative approach to the study of genetic diversity, an international research team, comprising ...
