‘Vigorous melting’ at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier

Satellite radar data show kilometer-scale seawater intrusion, causing ice to rise and fall. A team of glaciologists led by researchers at the University of California, Irvine used high-resolution satellite radar…

Zombie cells in the sea

Viruses keep the most common marine bacteria in check. Marine microbes control the flux of matter and energy essential for life in the oceans. Among them, the bacterial group SAR11…

How heatwaves are affecting Arctic phytoplankton

The basis of the marine food web in the Arctic, the phytoplankton, responds to heatwaves much differently than to constantly elevated temperatures. This has been found by the first targeted…

Iron-sulfur minerals bear witness to earliest life on earth

Spherical pyrite from black smokers puts Tübingen and Göttingen researchers on the trail of the first microbes that lived billions of years ago. A team of researchers at the Universities…

Discovery of biomarkers in space

Conditions on Saturn’s moon Enceladus simulated in the laboratory. In 2018, very large organic molecules were discovered in ice particles on Saturn’s moon Enceladus. It is still unclear whether they…

New surface acoustic wave techniques

… could lead to surfing a quantum internet. Researchers develop new methods to couple light to sound waves that glide on surfaces. Researchers at the University of Rochester used surface acoustic waves…
