Phys.org / Hummingbirds speed up pineapple family's evolution
Hummingbirds make bromeliad plants split into new species twice as fast as other pollinators do, scientists at the University of Reading have found. The research team gathered records of which animals pollinate 403 types ...
Phys.org / Q&A: How camera-equipped homing pigeons could improve robotic vision in flight
Contrary to common assumptions, pigeons do not lock their eyes in place during flight. Instead, they make slow, subtle eye movements that may help them gather more information about their surroundings.
Tech Xplore / An AI-powered control system for robots with legs
Walking robots, such as quadruped robotic dogs, must be able to move safely through rough, often changing environments. Today, there are two main ways to program these walking, or legged, robots. The first is called model ...
Tech Xplore / Elastic layer lets sulfide solid-state batteries run longer with less pressure
A Korean research team has developed a technology that enhances the lifespan and stability of all-solid-state batteries by using a rubber-like, elastic ion-conductive material. The research was published in Energy Storage ...
Phys.org / They're here: Biologists identify first established colonies of invasive clam in northeastern US
A collaborative team of biologists led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, MIT Sea Grant at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Center for Coastal Studies has discovered that the invasive Manila clam, ...
Phys.org / Raptorial insect forelegs evolved repeatedly but never converged on one winning design
The evolutionary paths that created snatching forelimbs in insects multiple times moved in a similar direction but didn't end at a single solution. Kobe University research is pioneering a study of how organs with similar ...
Medical Xpress / US teens underestimate risks of fentanyl use, survey finds
U.S. teens are seriously underestimating how lethal the synthetic opioid fentanyl can be, a new study says.
Phys.org / Quiet, please: Hatchery salmon raised amid noise are less likely to return to spawn
Fish hatcheries are a critical part of the effort to restore salmon runs in the Pacific Northwest. But hatchery fish are less likely than wild ones to return from the ocean to spawn—and one reason may be hatchery noise.
Phys.org / Study examines Miami-Dade County resilience plans
A University of Miami study has developed a new approach to evaluate how multiple climate resilience plans work together—or fail to do so—in addressing the growing risks posed by climate-related hazards. The researchers analyzed ...
Medical Xpress / Obesity promotes lung cancer by suppressing immune response, study shows
A research team led by experts at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has documented new evidence that excess abdominal fat increases the risk of developing non-small cell lung cancer. Published in the Journal of Thoracic ...
