Climate change is strengthening El Niño, coral records suggest

A global study found human-caused climate change is already exposing up to 560 million children aged 0–9 to at least one additional month of heat stress per year, with children experiencing greater additional exposure than any other age group.

Atmospheric data show Siberian methane emissions rose 12 teragrams a year between 2010 and 2023, and could offset a fifth of global methane cuts needed by 2050.

Behold the 'Glueball,' a Strange New Form of Matter

An analysis of nearly 3,500 wildfires across western North America found faster-spreading fires caused more severe tree mortality and left burned areas farther from surviving seed trees, reducing the ability of conifer forests to naturally recover.

NIH is ending a key grant for budding clinical researchers

Research suggests primate brains didn't get big for thinking, they got big for seeing: across 56 million years of fossil skulls, the frontal lobe is the same fraction of the brain in humans as in tree shrews, while vision-processing regions grew along with the optic nerve.

Preventing Misfolding by Preventing Folding

Deep-sea vehicles spot 'alien' sharks deep beneath the waves in the Pacific

Blocking the inflammatory enzyme caspase-1 reduced lung tumor development in high-risk mice, while combining a caspase-1 inhibitor with an IL-1 beta antibody prevented tumors entirely in nearly 20% of treated mice, suggesting a potential approach for lung cancer prevention.
