Flood-plagued York threatened by drying out
York's world-renowned archaeological remains are in danger - of drying out. The problem also threatens to cause roads to buckle, sewers collapse and subterranean gases leak into the air, unless a team from Leeds geography department can discover the effect of flood defences and new building in and around the city. York's flooding problem is well... view more... (2004-02-23)
A new computer simulator allows to design military strategies based on ants' movements
A researcher of the University of Granada has designed a new system for the mobility of military troops within a battlefield based on the mechanisms used by ant colonies to move using a commercial videogame. view more (2009-11-09)
Researchers investigate new suspect in West Nile deaths of pelicans
Stable flies are the latest suspect that may be involved in the West Nile virus deaths of hundreds of pelican chicks at the Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge in northeast Montana. view more (2007-10-01)
Study finds higher pathogen loads in collapsed honeybee colonies
Honeybees in colonies affected by colony collapse disorder (CCD) have higher levels of pathogens and are co-infected with a greater number of pathogens than their non-CCD counterparts, but no individual pathogen can be singled out as the cause of CCD. view more (2009-08-14)
Why some aphids can't stand the heat
For pea aphids, the ability to go forth and multiply can depend on a single gene, according to new research. view more (2007-04-20)
A&T professor has technology to monitor bridge safety
North Carolina A&T State University has developed a technology that could have possibly prevented the bridge collapse in Minneapolis, Minnesota. view more (2007-08-06)
Female Antarctic seals give cold shoulder to local males
Female Antarctic fur seals will travel across a colony to actively seek males which are genetically diverse and unrelated, rather than mate with local dominant males. view more (2007-02-08)
Commercial fishing causes dangerous fluctuations in fish populations
Commercial fishing causes serious fluctuations in fish populations leaving them in danger of total collapse, says new research published today. view more (2006-10-19)
Study: Chest compressions without mouth-to-mouth better for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest
A study published March 17, 2007 in The Lancet, one of the world's foremost medical journals, finds that the chances of surviving a cardiac arrest outside a hospital setting are almost twice as high if bystanders perform chest-compression-only resuscitation instead of traditional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with mouth-to-mouth breathing. view more (2007-03-16)
New insight in star formation
Early stages of star formation are now better understood, following an extensive millimeter-wave study of protostars, which are young stellar objects still deeply embedded in their parent molecular cloud. Thanks to their unprecedented high-resolution maps of the circumstellar environment of many young stellar objects, astronomers... view more... (2001-01-16)
Wild Bees Can Be Effective Pollinators
Over the past few years, honey bee keepers have experienced problems due to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), which has hurt honey bee populations, causing some growers of fruits, nuts and vegetables to wonder how their crops will be pollinated in the future. view more (2009-03-25)
Biggest 'small' black hole discovered
Discovery of the largest example of a "small" black hole - one formed from the collapse of a single massive star at the end of its lifetime - has led scientists to revaluate of how black holes come into being, according to a report in Nature. view more (2007-10-22)
Researchers tie crest size to seabirds' suitability as a mate
A newly released study by researchers at the University of Alaska Fairbanks offers evidence that in one breed of northern seabird, the size of males' feather crests may be more than simple ornamentation. view more (2009-04-17)
Astronomers find stellar cradle where planets form
Astronomers at the University of Illinois have found the first clear evidence for a cradle in space where planets and moons form. view more (2007-11-30)
World Trade Center dust cuts lung function capability in rescue workers
New York City firemen and emergency personnel exposed to dust from the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings experienced a decrease in lung function capability equal to 12 years of age-related decline during the year following the 9/11 disaster. view more (2006-08-01)
Bee researchers close in on Colony Collapse Disorder
Across the nation, beekeepers have seen hive after hive succumb to Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD); a team of entomologists and infectious disease researchers now report a strong correlation between the occupancy of CCD and a virus, Israeli Acute Paralysis Virus (IVAP). view more (2007-09-07)
Antarctica - an awakening giant?
The crucial role that Antarctica plays in global climate change and its future contribution to sea-level rise was highlighted today by Professor Chris Rapley, Director of British Antarctic Survey (BAS). Speaking at an international convention on climate change in Bonn, Germany* he presented a summary of the latest scientific results from... view more... (2005-05-19)

Nasal plastic surgery appears to improve nasal airway function in patients with severe nasal obstructions. view more (2006-09-19)
Even 'failed stars' form planets
An international team of astronomers shows that even brown dwarfs start to form planets. view more (2005-10-26)
Hydrocarbon afterglow reveals reproductive cheaters
An 'honest indicator' has been discovered by a scientific team at Arizona State University that reveals reproductive cheating. But before you run out to buy an infidelity identification kit, know that it only works for ants. view more (2009-01-12)
