Phys.org / Fungi could transform leftovers into lifelines
As the global population climbs toward 10 billion and climate change strains farmland, scientists are searching for new ways to feed the world. A group of Cornell food science researchers say one answer may lie not in fields ...
Medical Xpress / The 5 a.m. myth: Why waking early won't make you more successful
At 5 a.m., social media fills with proof that the early risers have already won the day. Cold plunges. Journals. Sunrise runs. Productivity gurus insist this is the routine that separates high performers from everyone else, ...
Tech Xplore / Local water supply crucial to success of hydrogen initiative in Europe, study shows
Green hydrogen is considered to be an important part of the global climate transition, especially as a fuel and energy carrier for heavy transport and industry. However, large-scale green hydrogen production requires sustainable ...
Medical Xpress / Contralateral endolymphatic hydrops ID'd in one in four patients with unilateral Meniere disease
For patients with unilateral Meniere disease, endolymphatic hydrops occur in 24.2% of contralateral ears, according to a study published online Feb. 4 in Acta Oto-Laryngologica.
Medical Xpress / New way to test life-threatening reaction to anesthetic
University of Queensland researchers have developed a less invasive way to test for a potential life-threatening reaction to an anesthetic. The work is published in the journal Anesthesiology.
Phys.org / Source or sink? Trees with heart rot disease emit more methane, upending forest carbon models
Throughout their lifetimes, healthy forests produce more oxygen than they use, while taking in greenhouse gases via plants and soils. This ecosystem-wide service, called carbon sequestration, regulates global climate and ...
Phys.org / Ocean carbon blind spot may skew climate forecasts
A new report by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO reveals a critical lack of understanding of how the ocean absorbs and stores carbon. This glaring uncertainty about our planet's largest carbon ...
Phys.org / Risk of whale entanglement in fishing gear tied to size of cool-water habitat
New research shows that, off the U.S. West Coast, humpback whales face a higher risk of getting entangled in fishing equipment during years with lower availability of cool-water habitat, where the whales feed. Jarrod Santora ...
Phys.org / How long could Earth microbes live on Mars?
Searching for past or present life on Mars is the sole driving force behind every mission we send to the red planet, from orbiters to landers to rovers. However, there remains a concern in the scientific community about Earth-based ...
Phys.org / New study reveals what crop advisors really want from AI tools
A new study co-authored by Virginia Tech and University of Vermont researchers offers one of the first, large-scale empirical looks at how Certified Crop Advisors (CCAs) across North America evaluate the next generation of ...
