Will an ozone hole develop over the Arctic? A press briefing at the research site
The Theseo presentation will mark the beginning of a decisive period in the development of the Arctic stratosphere. Over the last ten years or so, cold winters have been a prerequisite for maximum ozone depletion, and scientists now understand the chemical processes in the stratosphere that cause the phenomenon. It has been very cold during... view more... (2000-01-21)
Cold water gets mixed in 'blender' of Scotia Sea
The Scotia Sea, located between the Antarctic and the tip of South America, acts like a 'blender' on the very cold ocean waters that influence global ocean circulation patterns and ultimately climate, according to new research from the University of East Anglia (UEA) and published today (28 February) in the international journal Nature. The... view more... (2002-02-25)
Cold homes linked to poor health among the over 50s
Older people living in inadequately heated homes are three times as likely to suffer from chronic ill health, reports a study in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. view more (2001-11-09)
Children infected with 'RSV' virus three times as likely to wheeze in early childhood
Young children who wheeze are three times as likely to be infected with RSV, a common respiratory virus and only half as likely to have influenza virus as children with a cold but no wheeze, suggests research in the Archives of Disease in Childhood. The evidence shows that wheezing affects around one in every two children up to the age of 6 years,... view more... (2002-08-20)
Hyper-accurate clocks - the beating heart of Galileo
Travellers have relied on accurate timekeeping for navigation since the development of the marine chronometer in the eighteenth century. view more (2007-05-11)
Plants point the way to coping with climate change
Roses flowering at Christmas and snow-free ski resorts this winter suggest that climate change is already with us and our farmers and growers will need ways of adapting. view more (2007-01-10)
Colds and flu cut by one-third in study of Canada's top cold fighter in vaccinated seniors
A winter free from colds and flu? Not yet. But a new study offers new evidence that Canada's top cold and flu-fighting product provides significant help. view more (2008-09-16)
Cold climate produced by algae contributed to onset of multicellular life
The rise of multicellular animals about 540 million years ago was a turning point in the history of life. A group of Finnish scientists suggests a new climate-biosphere interaction mechanism for the underlying processes in a new study. view more (2007-02-14)
Cold sore virus increasing cause of genital herpes and 'strongly associated' with early start to sex
Genital herpes due to HSV-1 - the herpes simplex virus primarily associated with cold sores on the mouth - is strongly associated with an early start to sex, suggests research in Sexually Transmitted Infections. And its prevalence is increasing, say the authors. The findings are based on blood samples and details of sexual behaviour from 869... view more... (2002-09-30)
Where Does the North Pole Ice Come From? The Origin of the Northern Hemisphere Ice Age
Large areas of the Northern Hemisphere are currently covered with ice. This has, however, not always been the case. In the current issue of the science magazine "Nature", scientists from the GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam (GFZ) and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) present a possible solution for the oldest mystery of palaeo... view more...

Oxygen trick could see organic costs tumble
A simple, cheap treatment using just oxygen could allow growers to store organic produce for longer and go a long way towards reducing the price of organic fruit and vegetables. view more (2007-06-11)
OHSU researchers reveal the science of shivering
Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University's Neurological Sciences Institute have uncovered the system that tells the body when to perform one of its most basic defenses against the cold: shivering. view more (2007-12-18)
The fight against obesity -- a new insight
With obesity still on the increase, it appears that the main weapon in the fight against it - reducing energy consumption by eating less - is ineffective. view more (2008-03-12)
NASA'S Cassini spacecraft captures Saturnian moon ballet
The cold, icy orbs of the Saturn system come to life in a slew of new movie clips showing the ringed planet's moons in motion. view more (2006-06-22)
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols features methods for visualizing protein dynamics
This month's release of Cold Spring Harbor Protocols highlights methods that permit scientists to observe protein dynamics in chromosomes and embryos. view more (2008-01-03)
Where Have All the Butterflies Gone?
Cold, wet conditions early in the year mean that 2006 is shaping up as the worst year for California's butterflies in almost four decades. view more (2006-05-09)
First comprehensive genomic study of common cold reveals new treatment targets
Today, scientists from Procter & Gamble (P&G), the University of Calgary and the University of Virginia announced results from the first study to examine the entire human genome's response to the most common cold virus, human rhinovirus. view more (2008-10-27)
How plants remember winter, in order to flower in spring
Scientists at the John Innes Centre (JIC) Norwich (1), have discovered the molecular change that allows plants to remember winter. Many plants need a cold period (3-8 weeks at 4o - 8oC) early in their growth to stimulate them to flower, this is called vernalisation, and without a suitable cold treatment flowering is delayed. JIC scientists have... view more... (2004-01-06)
GAMMA RAYS AND DARK MATTER
For a long time it has been known that the Milky Way is surrounded by a (nearly spherical) halo of invisible matter, which contributes at least 90% of the whole galactic mass. Yet, almost nothing is known about the nature of such a dark halo. view more (1999-02-26)
Thousands of cold anti-atoms produced at CERN
An international team of physicists working at the Antiproton Decelerator (AD) facility at CERN has announced the first controlled production of large numbers of antihydrogen atoms at low energies. After mixing cold clouds of trapped positrons and antiprotons - the antiparticles of the familiar electron and proton - under closely monitored... view more... (2002-09-18)
