Phys.org / Targeted climate policies are successfully cutting carbon, study shows
Countries with stricter and better-targeted climate policies cut carbon emissions faster, according to a major new study by researchers in the UK and EU. The study draws on the most comprehensive climate policy dataset ever ...
Phys.org / Tropical flowers are blooming weeks later than they used to through climate change
Climate change has caused some tropical plants to flower earlier or later than they used to; in some cases by a matter of weeks or even months, according to a study of 8,000 flowers across more than two centuries, published ...
Phys.org / 3D-printed spring deploys on small commercial spacecraft
With a simple motion, a jack-in-the-box-like spring designed at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory showed the potential of additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, to cut costs and complexity for futuristic space ...
Medical Xpress / Single daily pill shows promise as replacement for complex, multi-tablet HIV treatment regimens
A new, daily oral tablet that combines two current HIV treatment medications, bictegravir and lenacapavir (BIC/LEN), could effectively replace more complicated HIV treatment regimens used by people living with HIV who are ...
Phys.org / Morocco: Ancient fossils shed light on a key period in human evolution
Could a Moroccan cave hold a crucial piece of the puzzle of human origins? Hominin fossils dating back 773,000 years discovered in the country are bringing new evidence to the debate about the last common ancestor of present-day ...
Medical Xpress / Muscle repair may hinge on a timed metabolic 'switch,' study suggests
Scientists at the University of California, Irvine's School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences have discovered how muscle stem cells "flip a switch" to rebuild damaged muscle—a finding that could help address muscle ...
Phys.org / Mate choice: How social trends influence mate diversity
Whether people follow a general trend when choosing a partner or consciously decide against it has a noticeable impact on the diversity of phenotypes to choose from. This is shown by a new study by the University of Würzburg.
Phys.org / Coral proxy data reveals century-long slowdown of South China Sea throughflow under global warming
The South China Sea Throughflow (SCSTF) serves as a critical oceanic conveyor belt for heat and freshwater, mediating water exchanges between the South China Sea (SCS) and the Pacific and Indian oceans while regulating key ...
Tech Xplore / Solvent‑free perovskite solar cell technology could pave way for scalable production
Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a multi-source co-evaporation recipe that markedly enhances the crystal quality of vacuum-deposited perovskite films. This advance brings ...
Medical Xpress / Why our immune system remembers vaccinations for decades
Why can the human immune system often remember a vaccination for a whole lifetime? Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Universitätsklinikum Erlangen have now investigated this question. ...
Phys.org / Video: Landsat 9: More than just a picture
For over 50 years, the Landsat program has provided the longest continuous satellite record of Earth's land surface from space. Landsat 9, launched in 2021, is the latest mission in this remarkable legacy—building on decades ...
Medical Xpress / As worms and jellyfish wriggle, new AI tools track their neurons
Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, neuroscientists often choose simple, transparent lab animals because it's possible to see all their ...
