Phys.org / Satellites reveal cities' 'urban pulse,' tracking neighborhood growth in near real time
For over a century, doctors have used electrocardiograms (EKGs) to render the invisible electrical activity of the human heart visible, using the pulse to diagnose disease before it becomes fatal. Now, scientists have invented ...
Phys.org / NASA satellites reveal major ocean nutrient stress
A new study combining NASA satellite observations, ocean surveys and genetic testing of marine microorganisms found evidence that warming ocean waters may be limiting nutrient availability across much of the global ocean. ...
Phys.org / Strong leadership will be key as AI reshapes the workforce, argues research
As artificial intelligence changes how work gets done, experts say strong leadership will play a critical role in helping employees adapt to shifting responsibilities, evolving technologies and changing workplace demands. ...
Phys.org / How 'undone science' shaped Chile's glacier protection battle
What is "undone science," and how does it affect environmental policy and regulation around the world? In a recent study published in Tapuya: Latin American Science, Technology and Society, Javiera Barandiarán, an associate ...

Phys.org / Hidden meltwater found deep in Antarctic coastal waters reveals stronger climate impacts
Freshwater from melting Antarctic glaciers may be influencing the Southern Ocean in ways scientists have largely overlooked. New research, published in Frontiers in Marine Science, has found that glacial meltwater is not ...
Phys.org / Ocean collapse triggered ancient wildfires, research suggests
Research led by the University of Alabama found that widespread wildfires during one of Earth's ancient environmental crises did not trigger an ocean collapse but were a consequence of it.
Medical Xpress / Vitamin A poisonings rose almost 40% as measles misinformation spread in 2025
There can be too much of a good thing, and that has been the case with Vitamin A in the U.S.. A recent study in JAMA Network Open has found that between January and March 2025, America's Poison Centers reported a 38.7% increase ...
Phys.org / Researchers craft a new, simple recipe for highly entangled quantum states
Building useful quantum technologies—from sensors to computers—requires generating highly complex entangled states, in which the properties of particles are deeply intertwined. Producing such states has traditionally required ...
Phys.org / Plants could be used to grow medicines in space, study shows
Astronauts on long space missions may one day use plants to produce fresh stocks of medicines on demand, thanks to new research by engineers at the University of California San Diego. The team developed a simple method to ...
