Science X / Could striped wind turbines save millions of birds?
Wind energy is quickly becoming a key pillar in the fight against climate change, with its turbines rising like modern monuments to a greener future. Yet the rapid growth hides a dark side: the spinning blades that produce ...
Medical Xpress / Research shows individual protein needs vary widely, challenging the idea of a single daily target
Protein has become the star of the modern diet. From shakes, bars and powders to viral fitness advice, the message seems clear: more protein equals better health. But research from Texas A&M University suggests it's not that ...
Phys.org / Rivalry with neighboring groups may be a key driver of male size in primates
In many primate species, males are much larger than their female counterparts, which is generally attributed to male competition for mates (sexual selection). But bigger bodies may not just be about alpha males defeating ...
Phys.org / Engineered exosomes reverse sleep deprivation brain damage in mice
Sleep is a vital physiological process that allows humans and other animals to restore both the mind and body, while also consolidating memories, clearing out toxins and regulating their metabolism. Several past studies showed ...
Phys.org / Indonesia may soon lose its last glaciers
Asia's last tropical glaciers can be found near Puncak Jaya, Papua, the highest peak in Southeast Asia. But it is unlikely that they will survive until the end of this decade. Over the past 44 years, the peak has lost 97% ...
Phys.org / Silk made into strong plastic-like materials with 6G potential
Silk threads can be fused into transparent, plastic-like materials that twist terahertz frequencies of light, according to research led by Imperial College London, University of Michigan Engineering and Tufts University. ...
Phys.org / Engineered proteins store digital files with 30 times density at one-tenth cost
Massive volumes of digital data are generated every day from AI training, big data analytics and smart devices. As conventional hard drives and cloud storage are increasingly constrained by high costs, limited capacity, high ...
Phys.org / Autonomous underwater robot discovers hidden coral reef 'hotspots'
Researchers have developed an autonomous system for seeking out and mapping hotspots of biodiversity on coral reefs with unprecedented precision, offering a powerful new tool for studying and protecting some of the ocean's ...
Phys.org / Why are some people mosquito magnets? Clues are emerging
Ever felt like mosquitoes bite you while ignoring everyone else? Scientists are now making progress in deciphering the complex chemical cocktail that makes particular people more enticing to these disease-spreading bloodsuckers.
Phys.org / 'Last titan': Southeast Asia's biggest dinosaur discovered
A new type of long-necked plant-eating dinosaur—the largest ever found in Southeast Asia—has been revealed in a study led by researchers at University College London (UCL), Mahasarakham University, Suranaree University of ...
Phys.org / JWST spots two early black holes growing far faster than their galaxies
Astronomers have discovered two early-universe galaxies where the central black holes appear to have grown far faster than their host galaxies. Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal that the black ...
Science X / Are remoras the ocean's weirdest hitchhikers? These suckerfish invade manta rays in the most intimate of places
Remoras (family Echeneidae) are ray-finned fish that are known to attach themselves to large marine animals, such as whales, sharks, and turtles. They get a free ride and sometimes food, and in return, often provide cleaning ...
