Phys.org / How Earth recycles continents deep underground
Scientists have uncovered new evidence that Earth's continents are continuously reworked deep beneath the surface, offering fresh insight into how continents have evolved over billions of years.
Phys.org / Portugal burial reveals first known bone dental bridge in national archaeological record
The first documented case of a fixed bone bridge unearthed in Portugal was presented in the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology by researchers Ms. Steffi Vassallo and her colleagues. The item is estimated to date to ...
Medical Xpress / Adding a lower cutoff value for CA19-9 may identify additional high-risk cases of pancreatic cancer
A dual-threshold model for measuring the pancreatic tumor marker serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) identified patients with pancreatic cancer who had high-risk disease despite having low CA19-9 levels because of a ...
Phys.org / AI tool fuses five satellite datasets to help track harmful algal blooms
NASA scientists have developed an artificial intelligence tool to take on a longstanding challenge in ocean waters. In a study recently published in the Earth and Space Science journal, researchers reported the tool was able ...
Phys.org / New evapotranspiration method could recover up to 30% missing tower energy
Evapotranspiration is a critical link between water, energy, and carbon. Scientists need to understand it well to accurately predict weather, droughts, streamflows, and even carbon emissions.
Medical Xpress / Autism social differences emerge early but can change considerably by adulthood, research suggests
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by differences in behavior, social interactions, communication, and sensory perceptions. Some autistic individuals find communicating and connecting ...
Science X / The first few weeks of fatherhood don't just change lives—they rapidly rewire men's brains in ways few expected
While motherhood's impact on the brain is well-studied, what happens to new fathers' minds has remained largely a mystery. Now, a new study reveals profound, unexpected changes in the paternal brain.
Medical Xpress / AI atlas reveals hidden whole-body-damage caused by obesity
Obesity affects far more than metabolism and fat storage. It alters immune activity, nerve structure, and tissue organization across multiple organ systems, increasing the risk of diseases including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular ...
Phys.org / Cities change storms, but the impacts depend on the storm itself
Cities don't just change the landscape, they change the weather. According to a new study analyzing tens of thousands of rain events in Texas, whether urban areas make rain worse, lighter or simply different depends strongly ...
Medical Xpress / Can supplements containing NMN, NAD+ and resveratrol really slow aging? Here's what the evidence says
As more people look for ways to stay younger for longer, the supplement industry has moved beyond creams and cosmetic fixes to something more ambitious: products that claim to slow aging by acting on cellular processes.
Phys.org / Better helium reporting to improve fission and fusion materials modeling
Standardizing calculations of the helium byproducts generated in advanced fission and fusion energy system materials can increase reactor safety and longevity, according to a study led by University of Michigan Engineering ...
Dialog / Rewiring early life: What extremely preterm birth teaches us about the brain
Extremely preterm birth (before 28 weeks of gestation) places infants into the world at one of the most extraordinary moments in human development. The brain at this stage is not simply growing; it is folding, organizing, ...
