UC Davis nematologists, including Valerie Williamson, professor emerita in the Department of Plant Pathology, and associate professor Shahid Siddique, Department of Entomology and Nematology, have long wondered how a plant-parasitic ...
Phys.org / Soil carbon decomposition varies vastly, holding implications for climate models
Soil stores more carbon than Earth's atmosphere and plants combined, which makes the speed of soil carbon's decomposition an important variable in models used to predict changes to our climate.
Phys.org / Using 6,000-year-old data, scientists uncover why Europe may face 42 extra days of summer by 2100
New research led by Royal Holloway reveals for the first time why Europe could gain more than an extra month of summer days by 2100 using climate data from the last millennia.
Phys.org / Psychiatrist explains how to talk politics during the holidays
Politics can be a stressful discussion topic, but when the holiday season arrives, political chatter is difficult to avoid, especially in a world that feels polarized and divided. A Baylor College of Medicine psychiatrist ...
Phys.org / Study finds Indigenous-led hunting most effective for tackling deer overabundance on B.C. islands
As ecosystems in coastal British Columbia disappear due to long-term browsing pressures from overabundant black-tailed deer, a new study led by UBC with Coast Salish Nations and regional research partners identifies the most ...
Phys.org / Emerald green degradation in masterpieces: Scientists identify the culprits
An international team of researchers have found what triggers degradation in one of the most popular pigments used by renowned 19th and 20th century painters. Using a multi-method approach, including advanced synchrotron ...
Tech Xplore / AI's blind spot: Tools fail to detect their own fakes
When outraged Filipinos turned to an AI-powered chatbot to verify a viral photograph of a lawmaker embroiled in a corruption scandal, the tool failed to detect it was fabricated—even though it had generated the image itself.
