Phys.org / Scientists map more than 200 years of nature's progress
Armed with trail cameras, artificial intelligence, and a powerful national research network, scientists are revisiting Lewis and Clark's legendary journey to see how America's wildlife has changed over the past 200 years.
Phys.org / White storks: Why introducing non‑native species in rewilding projects can be a good idea
White storks (Ciconia ciconia) are a majestic bird with a two-meter wingspan and an enormous circular nest.
Medical Xpress / Ebola outbreak in Central Africa could reach 20,000 cases without strong public health measures
The Ebola outbreak in Central Africa could grow to 20,000 cases or more, depending on how quickly infected people are isolated to slow the spread, according to a new analysis by U.S. health officials.
Phys.org / What makes 15-minute cities work? More nearby jobs and connected streets
The concept of the "15-Minute City" has gained global traction as a blueprint for more livable, sustainable communities by placing daily essentials—such as grocery stores, schools, restaurants and parks—within easy reach ...
Medical Xpress / Popular GLP-1 drug may slow down biological aging, analysis indicates
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist medications have gained widespread attention for effectively treating obesity, lowering blood sugar and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Some researchers have ...
Phys.org / Global mangrove forests rebound, offering hopeful sign for climate and coastal resilience
Mangrove forests, once considered one of the world's most threatened coastal ecosystems, are showing signs of recovery worldwide, according to new research from Tulane University that finds decades of losses largely offset ...
Medical Xpress / Food insecurity linked to gut microbiome changes in children
Food insecurity may leave a measurable biological signature in the gut microbiome of children, according to new research presented at ASM Microbe 2026.
Phys.org / Atlantic 'cold blob' may be reshaping Indian monsoon, steering rain northwest
The Indian monsoon has shifted over the past quarter century. Northwest India now receives substantially more rain than it once did, while a lack of rain sends the Indo-Gangetic Plain toward drought.
Phys.org / Why jellyfish can't rise to the surface
Using box jellyfish as an example, researchers from Kiel University show how the physics of density, not behavior or physiology, can prevent animals from reaching the surface even as they actively swim upward.
Phys.org / Invasive caiman may pose new challenges for Everglades restoration
In the canals, wetlands and marshes of the Florida Everglades, the spectacled caiman has quietly expanded its foothold, threatening an already-vulnerable ecosystem. A new University of Florida study published in Frontiers ...
Phys.org / Teaching AI to design optical surfaces using real-world imperfections
Designing surfaces that precisely control how light behaves at the nanoscale is tricky. Optical Fourier surfaces, which are nanostructured gratings that redistribute light into specific directions and wavelengths, hold enormous ...
Phys.org / ExoMars rover targets vast bed of clay in search for life
In the region where the ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover will search for signs of life, clay deposits extend beyond previous estimates, a new study finds. One hypothesis even suggests a vast ocean once covered the landing ...
