Phys.org / Theoretical framework can predict how complex networks behave
The University of Hong Kong (HKU) has spearheaded an international research collaboration to develop a pioneering theoretical framework that deciphers the predictability of complex networks. A research team including Professor ...
Phys.org / How missing information can misinform
Readers don't need false information to get the wrong idea. In the online attention economy, UC San Diego research finds that making science more clickable or shareable can help some readers learn more—but leaves many others ...
Phys.org / Satellite captures a sea of spinning clouds
Over the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica, winds can whip around the globe relatively unimpeded by land. Intrepid sailors termed these southern latitudes the Roaring Forties, Furious Fifties, and Screaming Sixties on ...
Phys.org / Subglacial CH₄ export from the Greenland Ice Sheet linked to a mid-Holocene warm period
In a new paper, an international team led by scientists from Charles University, Czechia, has brought evidence linking widespread release of methane (CH₄)—a strong greenhouse gas—from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) to a warmer ...
Medical Xpress / Why supplements aren't a shortcut to healthy aging
The use of dietary supplements has increased sharply in recent years. Vitamins, minerals and other nutritional products are often marketed as simple ways to boost energy, support immunity, protect brain health or even promote ...
Medical Xpress / Seasonal COVID-19 vaccination in 2025/26 reduced risk of illness by half in Canada
An interim analysis published in Eurosurveillance estimates that the COVID-19 vaccine for the 2025/26 season reduced the risk of illness in Canada by about half at about 9 weeks after vaccination, offering protection beyond ...
Phys.org / Explosive evaporation unlocks new possibilities in 3D printing and chemical analysis
Water droplets might seem simple at first. But when nearing evaporation, a desperate power struggle of competing physical forces can emerge, with explosive effects. In a Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences publication, ...
Phys.org / Dog training choices may reflect owners' ethical views on animals
Whether a dog owner rewards their dog with a treat or corrects it by pulling on the leash is not simply a matter of what they believe to be the most effective training method. According to the study, owners' choice of training ...
Phys.org / Timor green pigeon 'likely to go extinct' without urgent action, according to scientists
The Timor green pigeon, which is under pressure from hunting and habitat loss, is at serious risk of extinction and should be uplisted to Critically Endangered, according to a new study from researchers at Charles Darwin ...
Medical Xpress / Lithium not working? Large-scale study highlights favorable treatment strategies for bipolar disorder
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition estimated to affect between 1% and 3% of people worldwide. Its main symptoms include extreme mood swings, ranging from periods of high activity and emotional high (i.e., mania) ...
Phys.org / CPR simulator for space use tracks the differences of blood flow in reduced gravity
The new focus on manned missions to the moon and Mars presents countless pressing challenges, including keeping humans alive in hostile environments. What happens when an astronaut or space tourist has a cardiac emergency ...
Phys.org / Recreational fishing in the US catches far more fish than previously estimated
One of the United States' largest fisheries is hiding in plain sight. Recreational freshwater anglers in the lower 48 states catch—and keep—far more fish than any official body has estimated, according to new research from ...
