Study reveals that carbon emissions from volcanic rocks play a role in global warming

Researchers at the University of Bristol discovered that ancient frog ancestors survived the biggest mass extinction of species by eating on freshwater prey that evaded terrestrial predators.

A group of scientists has created a way to illuminate the dynamic behavior of nanoparticles, which are essential components in the production of pharmaceuticals, electronics, and industrial and energy-conversion materials.

A new study led by Professor Gemma Harvey from Queen Mary University of London has revealed how hundreds of species shape the landscapes we depend on, from termite mounds visible from space to beavers creating wetlands and hippos carving drainage systems.

A team of physicists led by Jonathan Richardson of the University of California, Riverside, demonstrated how new optical technology can extend the detection range of gravitational-wave observatories such as the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, or LIGO, and pave the way for future observatories.

As climate change accelerates, plants are under increasing pressure to adapt to changing habitats and environmental conditions.

According to new research from the University of Surrey, climate change has an impact on Salmonella spread. This study builds on prior work by the researchers, which discovered that weather change is contributing to the spread of deadly diarrhoeal illnesses.

The majority of known asteroids orbit inside the main asteroid belt, which is positioned between Mars and Jupiter at an average distance of around 250 million km from Earth. Since the discovery of the first asteroid in 1801, about 750.000 asteroids have been identified, primarily in the last decade thanks to several optical surveys that examine the sky on clear nights.

"Our results have no clear or direct application right now. It's basic research that lays the foundation for future technologies in quantum information and quantum computers. There's enormous potential for complete discoveries in many different research fields," said Guilherme B Xavier, a researcher in quantum communication at Linkoping University, Sweden.

Tokyo Metropolitan University researchers employed long-term skin conductance measurements to distinguish between emotions. Volunteers were given videos representing frightening scenarios, family bonding, and humour, while their skin conductance was measured.

Large language models, a type of AI that analyses text, can anticipate the results of proposed neuroscience studies more correctly than human experts, according to a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers.
