Beavers can turn rivers into powerful carbon sinks, storing up to ten times more carbon than unmodified streams

Becoming a parent is much more detrimental to women’s academic careers than it is to men’s, lowering their chances of getting university jobs, tenure and reducing their publication output…

Physicists have made an ultra-powerful magnet that fits in the palm of a hand and can produce a magnetic field that is more than 800,000 times stronger than Earth’s.

Current climate models rely on unproven tech because they refuse to question economic growth

China could be the world’s biggest public funder of science within two years

The 2021 Pacific Northwest heatwave triggered "cascading" ecological disasters, killing 92% of mussels and 56% of sea ducks

An artificial intelligence model trained on biological data has demonstrated the ability to generate novel synthetic DNA sequences from scratch.

Study of two surface samples from the asteroid Ryugu reveals the presence of all five nucleobases that constitute DNA and RNA, strongly reinforcing the hypothesis that carbonaceous asteroids delivered essential prebiotic chemicals to early Earth.

Climate model averages may be creating a "false sense of security": New research shows that even at 2°C of warming, worst-case scenarios for droughts, extreme rainfall, and wildfires could be more severe than what is currently expected for a 3°C or 4°C world.
