Phys.org / Study reveals weakening of circumglobal teleconnection pattern under future warming and its impact on heat waves
The circumglobal teleconnection pattern (CGT) is a key mode of atmospheric variability during boreal summer, identified by an upper-tropospheric wave train propagating along the subtropical jet. CGT is one of the critical ...
Phys.org / From pint to plate, scientists brew up a new way to grow meat
Yeast left over from brewing beer can be transformed into edible "scaffolds" for cultivated meat—sometimes known as lab-grown meat—which could offer a more sustainable, cost-effective alternative to current methods, according ...
Phys.org / Direct 3D printing of nanolasers can boost optical computing and quantum security
In future high-tech industries, such as high-speed optical computing for massive AI, quantum cryptographic communication, and ultra-high-resolution augmented reality (AR) displays, nanolasers—which process information using ...
Medical Xpress / High levels of Chagas disease parasite found in insects near U.S.-Mexico border
Researchers at The University of Texas at El Paso have found unusually high levels of parasitic infection in the insects that transmit Chagas disease in the Borderlands. The bugs were collected near homes and natural areas ...
Phys.org / Ticking time bomb: Some northeastern US farmers report as many as 70 tick encounters over a 6-month period
Finding one tick on your body is scary enough—tick-borne diseases are serious—but what if you found more than 10 on yourself in just one month? That's the plight of some farmers as the threat of ticks and tick-borne diseases ...
Phys.org / Climate change accelerates tree deaths across Australian forests, study finds
Australia's forests are losing trees more rapidly as the climate warms, a new study examining decades of data said Tuesday, warning the trend was likely a "widespread phenomenon."
Phys.org / House sparrows can help us save endangered species: A mathematical framework for genomic prediction
Researchers are trying to understand why some wild species do better than others over time, as the environment changes.
Phys.org / Nanoparticles with AI-crafted sensors open paths to at-home cancer screening
Detecting cancer in the earliest stages could dramatically reduce cancer deaths because cancers are usually easier to treat when caught early. To help achieve that goal, MIT and Microsoft researchers are using artificial ...
Phys.org / Researchers build plasma accelerator that boosts electron energy and brightness at the same time
Researchers from the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), have designed innovative technology that can generate both high-energy and high-brightness ...
Phys.org / ALMA devours cosmic 'hamburger,' reveals potential for giant planet formation
Have you ever found something unexpected in your hamburger? Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) were surprised to discover the very earliest phases of giant planet formation between the ...
Tech Xplore / Engineers demonstrate smallest all-printed infrared photodetectors to date
A research team led by Professor Leo Tianshuo Zhao from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Hong Kong (HKU), has developed the world's smallest fully printed ...
Phys.org / A speeding clock could solve Darwin's mystery of gaps in animal fossil records
The oldest fossilized remains of complex animals appear suddenly in the fossil record, and as if from nowhere, in rocks that are 538 million years old.
