Individual leopards can be identified by their roars
In the first large-scale paired camera trap and autonomous recording survey for large African carnivores, researchers were able to identify individual leopards by their vocalizations with 93% accuracy.
How the freezer factors into lowering food waste
Putting extra holiday cookies and leftovers in the freezer will not only extend their shelf life -- it could also put a dent in the U.S. household tendency to throw away edible food, a new study suggests.
Researchers find compromised indoor air in homes following Marshall Fire
A new study finds gases harmful to human health lingered for weeks following the fire.
ESA and NASA Satellites Deliver First Joint Picture of Greenland Ice Sheet Melting
Academics from Northumbria University are part of an international research team which has used data from satellites to track changes in the thickness of the Greenland Ice Sheet.
Scientists Engineer Crops to Consume More Carbon Dioxide
Scientists have engineered sugarcane and sorghum to take advantage of rising levels of carbon dioxide, allowing these crops to grow bigger.
Researchers take ‘significant leap forward’ with quantum simulation of molecular electron transfer
Researchers have made a meaningful advance in the simulation of molecular electron transfer -- a fundamental process underpinning countless physical, chemical and biological processes. The study details the use of a trapped-ion quantum simulator to model electron transfer dynamics with unprecedented tunability, unlocking new opportunities for scientific exploration in fields...
Breakthrough new material brings affordable, sustainable future within grasp
Researchers have developed a new material for sodium-ion batteries, sodium vanadium phosphate, that delivers higher voltage and greater energy capacity than previous sodium-based materials. This breakthrough could make sodium-ion batteries a more efficient and affordable alternative to lithium-ion, using a more abundant and cost-effective resource.
Study reveals right whales live 130 years — or more
New research reveals that right whales can survive for more than 130 years -- almost twice as long as previously understood.
Research points the way to lifesaving antiparasitic drugs while unlocking a scientific mystery
A breakthrough in understanding how a single-cell parasite makes ergosterol (its version of cholesterol) could lead to more effective drugs for human leishmaniasis, a parasitic disease that afflicts about 1 million people and kills about 30,000 people around the world every year.
