Stronger coastal winds due to climate change may have far-reaching effects
Future increases in wind strength along the California coast may have far-reaching effects, including more intense upwelling of cold water along the coast early in the season and increased fire danger in Southern California, according to researchers at the Climate Change and Impacts Laboratory at the University of California, Santa Cruz. view more (2008-12-22)
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)
Robust sensor yields cleaner car exhaust
Emissions from cars have to be reduced further in order to meet today's environmental demands. A new and robust exhaust sensor developed by researchers at Linköping University in Sweden has proven to meter the consistency of exhaust gases extremely well and is now on its way to the market. view more (2005-04-27)
Cryogenic Bank Of The Earth
The littoral plains of north-eastern Eurasia are covered with a thick layer of permafrost. This layer preserves seeds, spores and microorganisms. Some of them that are thousands and hundreds of thousands years old are still alive. The study of fossil life was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. Conditions of the glacial epoch... view more... (2003-11-06)
Study shows big power of small RNAs, not just proteins, in halting cancer
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) researchers led by Lin He, Xingyue He, and Professor and Howard Hughes Medical Investigator (HHMI) Greg Hannon have identified a family of micro RNAs (miRNAs) that enable a critical tumor suppressor network, called the p53 pathway, to fight cancer growth. view more (2007-06-07)
Fast not food for a fussy fish
Most fish eat heartily during the summer in preparation for the cold and hungry winter months. But the burbot or Lota lota – a freshwater cousin of cod - does things differently, going on a summer diet when fish food is at its peak. view more (2002-04-04)
VAMOS Ocean Cloud Atmosphere Land Study
The clouds being investigated in this study are known as marine stratocumulus clouds. They tend to form adjacent to continents where deep, cold, upwelling water reaches the sea-surface. view more (2008-10-22)
Keeping herpes infection in check: Pitt researchers describe immune system strategies
Herpes simplex virus type I can cause bouts of cold sores, blindness and potentially lethal encephalitis when it reawakens from a quiescent state in the nerve cells it infects. view more (2008-10-10)
Fish Blood Preserves Sperm
In the Arctic and Antarctic seas the water gets cold to minus 1.9 C in winter, but somehow some fish live there. These cold-blooded creatures survive in the icy water because the blood in their veins contains antifreeze proteins and glycoproteins. High levels of the antifreeze proteins are found in the blood serum, they are present in cell... view more... (2002-06-04)
1600 Eruption Caused Global Disruption
The 1600 eruption of Huaynaputina in Peru had a global impact on human society, according to a new study of contemporary records by geologists at UC Davis. view more (2008-04-24)
Discovered: Cooling system under the sea floor
EMBARGO: February 5th, 8 pm The scientific, technical and logistic support of the geo scientists from Bremen, Prof. V. Spiess, Dr. L. Zühlsdorff and Prof. H. Villinger was instrumental in the discovery of a 50 km long cooling system by US-scientists under the sea floor off the north-west American coast. Its cornerstones are rocky outcrops... view more...

Scientists Find a Fingerprint of Evolution Across the Human Genome
The Human Genome Project revealed that only a small fraction of the 3 billion "letter" DNA code actually instructs cells to manufacture proteins, the workhorses of most life processes. This has raised the question of what the remaining part of the human genome does. How much of the rest performs other biological functions, and how much... view more... (2008-04-09)
Fossilized midges provide clues to future climate change
Fossilised midges have helped scientists at the University of Liverpool identify two episodes of abrupt climate change that suggest the UK climate is not as stable as previously thought. view more (2007-07-10)
Researchers Examine Evolution of Genes that Trigger the Body's Immune Response to Viral Infection
Virginia Commonwealth University Institute of Molecular Medicine researchers have traced the evolutionary origin of two genes that serve as primary cellular sensors of infection with RNA viruses, such as influenza, poliovirus, West Nile virus, and HIV, which may ultimately provide researchers with insight into a possible new pathway for the... view more...

Brookhaven Scientists Take Off for Southeastern Pacific Climate Study
During October and November 2008, some 150 scientists from 40 institutions in eight nations - including scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory - will take part in an international field experiment designed to make observations of critical components of the climate system of the southeastern Pacific. view more (2008-10-07)
Living sensor can warn of arsenic pollution
Scientists studying arsenic pollution have discovered a living sensor that can spot contamination. They have also discovered new bacteria that can clean up arsenic spills even in previously untreatable cold areas, microbiologists heard today (Monday 8 September 2008) at the Society for General Microbiology's Autumn meeting being held this week at... view more...

Super-Tough Sunshield to Fly on the James Webb Space Telescope
Imagine sunglasses that can withstand the severe cold and heat of space, a barrage of radiation and high-speed impacts from small space debris. They don't exist, but Northrop Grumman engineers have created a Sunshield for NASA's James Webb Space Telescope that can withstand all of those elements. The space telescope needs a Sunshield to block heat... view more... (2008-11-13)
Natural Cataclysms Predict Glaciations
Not only geologists are interested in giant canyons of Kursk Magnetic Anomaly, but also soil scientists. There is very convenient place to watch old soils, which earlier were on the surface. As the canyons grew wider, details of ancient landscapes and their changes appear. While studying one of those canyons, Svetlana Sycheva from the Institute of... view more... (2002-01-11)
Killer freeze of '07 illustrates paradoxes of warming climate
A destructive spring freeze that chilled the eastern United States almost a year ago illustrates the threat a warming climate poses to plants and crops, according to a paper just published in the journal BioScience. The study was led by a team from the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory. view more (2008-03-06)
