| Newly identified softshell turtle lived alongside T. rex and Triceratops Posted: 11 Mar 2022 06:53 AM PST Scientists describe the find of a new softshell turtle from the end of the Cretaceous Period. |
| Scientists find new colony structure of fire ants evolved in one species before spreading to others Posted: 11 Mar 2022 06:53 AM PST Scientists have discovered that a new form of ant society spread across species. They found that after the new form of society evolved in one species, a 'social supergene' carrying the instruction-set for the new social form spread into other species. This spread occurred through hybridization, i.e., breeding between ants of different species. This unlikely event provides an alternate way of life, making the ants more successful than if they only had the original social form. |
| Past global photosynthesis reacted quickly to more carbon in the air Posted: 10 Mar 2022 11:37 AM PST Ice cores allow climate researchers to look 800,000 years back in time: atmospheric carbon acts as fertilizer, increasing biological production. The mechanism removes carbon from the air and thereby dampens the acceleration in global warming. |
| 'Seafloor fertilizer factory' helped breathe life into Earth Posted: 10 Mar 2022 08:43 AM PST Scientists reveal a new part of the recipe for complex life on planets, and it involves the onset of a microbial fertilizer factory on the Earth's seafloor roughly 2.6 billion years ago. |
