Bombardment of Planets in the Early Solar System

Studies of the asteroid Vesta provide new findings on the formation of Earth-like planets The largest asteroid in our Solar System – Vesta – was exposed to an extensive series…

More than sex: Kiel researchers propose expanded evolutionary concept

New work from the Kiel Evolution Center suggests that somatic gene variations play a larger role in evolutionary adaptation mechanisms than previously thought. The variability of genetic information within a…

On the trail of ocean mercury

Mercury is released by coal combustion and mining activities to the atmosphere as a gaseous pollutant. Following global dispersal, mercury deposits partly to the ocean where it accumulates within the…

Intensified water cycle slows down global warming, new study finds

Researchers found that salinity changes as a result of water cycle changes lead to less surface warming. A new study led by scientists at the University of Miami (UM) Rosenstiel…

Fiber tracking method delivers important new insights into turbulence

A new experimental method that tracks the motion of fibers instead of particles reveals previously hidden information about turbulent flows. Turbulent flows are random, chaotic and occur across many scales,…

World’s first discovery of liquid directional steering on a bio-inspired surface

Inspired by a kind of tree leaf, scientists at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) discovered that the spreading direction of different liquids deposited on the same surface can be…
