As climate change pushes heat deeper into the ocean, scientists have been concerned about disruptions to marine life’s delicate balance. But new research suggests that a key microbe, Nitrosopumilus maritimus, may already be adapting to these harsher conditions. Rising temperatures are no longer limited to the ocean’s surface. Heat waves and long-term climate change are […]

Extreme Weather Is Shrinking Baby Birds in a 60-Year Study
Sixty years of data show that cold snaps and heavy rain can stunt the growth of baby birds and reduce their survival chances. A study from the University of Oxford, published March 11, finds that sudden cold spells and heavy rain can slow growth and lower survival chances for young great tits in the UK. […]
Something Strange Is Happening Deep Inside Greenland’s Ice Sheet
Scientists discovered that Greenland’s ice sheet may be slowly churning deep below the surface, revealing a hidden process shaping its future. Buried far beneath Greenland’s vast ice sheet, scientists have identified enormous swirling, plume-like formations. These unusual structures have baffled researchers for more than ten years. Now, scientists at the University of Bergen (UiB) believe […]
Scientists Achieve Long-Sought Breakthrough Toward Oral Insulin Pills
A new peptide-based drug-delivery strategy may bring scientists closer to an oral form of insulin. For more than 100 years, scientists have pursued the idea of delivering insulin as a pill. This goal has remained difficult to achieve because insulin breaks down in the digestive system and the intestine lacks a natural transport pathway that […]
