| Underwater ancient cypress forest offers clues to the past Posted: 03 Jun 2021 02:12 PM PDT Marine geologists and paleoclimatologists new research findings uncover new information about the underwater ancient cypress forest and the Gulf Coast's past. |
| Mockingbirds follow similar musical rules as those found in human music Posted: 03 Jun 2021 02:11 PM PDT Mockingbirds follow similar musical rules as those found in human music, from Beethoven to Kendrick Lamar. |
| North Atlantic right whales have gotten smaller since the 1980s Posted: 03 Jun 2021 02:11 PM PDT Whales are largely protected from direct catch, but many populations' numbers still remain far below what they once were. A study suggests that, in addition to smaller population sizes, those whales that survive are struggling. As evidence, they find that right whales living in the North Atlantic today are significantly shorter than those born 30 to 40 years ago. |
| A shark mystery millions of years in the making Posted: 03 Jun 2021 02:11 PM PDT The biggest shark attack in history did not involve humans.

| How leafbirds make complex color-producing crystals Posted: 03 Jun 2021 08:19 AM PDT A recent study has discovered a novel way to manufacture single gyroid photonic crystals to work in the visible light spectrum, based on the self-assembly mechanism found in blue-winged leafbirds. |
| Beneficial arthropods find winter sanctuary in uncultivated field edges, study finds Posted: 03 Jun 2021 05:35 AM PDT A new study reveals that beetles, wasps and other beneficial arthropods are nearly twice as abundant and diverse in uncultivated field edges in the spring as they are in areas that are cropped - if those field edges are rich in an array of flowers and other broad-leaved plants and not just mowed grass. |
| Declining fish biodiversity poses risks for human nutrition Posted: 02 Jun 2021 02:06 PM PDT All fish are not created equal, at least when it comes to nutritional benefits.
