| Precipitation helped drive distribution of Alaska dinosaurs Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT Precipitation more than temperature influenced the distribution of herbivorous dinosaurs in what is now Alaska, according to new research. The finding discusses the distribution of hadrosaurids and ceratopsids -- the megaherbivores of the Late Cretaceous Period, 100.5 million to 66 million years ago. |
| 'Resetting' the injured brain offers clues for concussion treatment Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT New research in mice raises the prospects for development of post-concussion therapies that could ward off cognitive decline and depression, two common conditions among people who have experienced a moderate traumatic brain injury. |
| Researchers develop powerful strategy for creating new-to-nature enzymes Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT Scientists achieve a novel biocatalytic reaction by repurposing natural enzymes with light, which could lead to valuable new chemical compounds. |
| Discovery about coral-algal symbiosis could help coral reefs recover after bleaching events Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT Although photosynthesis by algae is a key part of the symbiotic relationship it is not required to initiate symbiosis. The discovery adds to the little-understood relationship between cnidarians and algae at the molecular level and offers insight into how to jump start the symbiotic relationship between the two organisms after a bleaching event. It could also lead to strategies that might prevent warmer oceans from breaking the symbiotic relationship between the two organisms and saving what remains of the world's corals. |
| Process aims to strip ammonia from wastewater Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT Engineers have developed a high-performance nanowire catalyst that pulls ammonia and solid ammonia (fertilizer) from nitrate, a common contaminant in industrial wastewater and polluted groundwater. |
| Researchers bridge the gap between disciplines to better understand chemical reactions Posted: 02 May 2022 02:09 PM PDT Researchers are yielding new insights into how chemical reactions can be understood and guided. |
| Scientists map living corals before and after marine heat wave: Winners and losers discovered Posted: 02 May 2022 02:08 PM PDT Scientists reveal that different corals and environments influence the likelihood of their survival when ocean temperatures rise. The findings also demonstrate that advanced remote sensing technologies provide an opportunity to scale-up reef monitoring like never before. |
| Carbon, climate change and ocean anoxia in an ancient icehouse world Posted: 02 May 2022 02:08 PM PDT A new study describes a period of rapid global climate change in an ice-capped world much like the present -- but 304 million years ago. Within about 300,000 years, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels doubled, oceans became anoxic, and biodiversity dropped on land and at sea. |
| Aging and fake news: It's not the story you think it is Posted: 02 May 2022 11:22 AM PDT A new study has found that older adults are no more likely to fall for fake news than younger adults, with age-related susceptibility to deceptive news evident only among those categorized as the 'oldest old.' |
| Posted: 02 May 2022 09:54 AM PDT DNA-to-protein mapping could help researchers understand some health disparities. |
| Researchers develop smartphone-powered microchip for at-home medical diagnostic testing Posted: 02 May 2022 06:47 AM PDT A research team has developed a new microfluidic chip for diagnosing diseases that uses a minimal number of components and can be powered wirelessly by a smartphone. The innovation opens the door for faster and more affordable at-home medical testing. |
