This distant planet lost its atmosphere, so its volcanoes made it a new one
Scientists thought that GJ 1132 b, a distant exoplanet discovered in 2015, lost its atmosphere. But now it seems that it has formed itself a new one. The gases of this new atmosphere suggest a volcanic origin as well. Scientists at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration‘s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory made the discovery after examining existing observations of GJ 1132 b with […]

Vehicle use of roadways linked to majority of microplastics in the air
Not many studies have been conducted on microplastics, microscopic pieces of plastic debris floating in the air. But a new study has shown that 84 percent of microplastics floating in the air in the western United States come from roads and road use. Published Monday, April 12, in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the […]

New research shows plants grow just fine in solar cell greenhouses
Greenhouses fitted with semitransparent organic solar cells (ST-OSCs) can generate power for heating without affecting plant growth, according to new research from North Carolina State University (NCSU). Published in Cell Reports Physical Science, it demonstrated that ST-OSCs could turn greenhouses into energy-neutral structures by capturing energy from wavelengths of light not used by plants during photosynthesis. ST-OSCs don’t affect plant growth The […]

Earth may have been a “water world” three billion years ago, new research suggests
Earlier studies have suggested that the Earth was once engulfed by water and had few or no landmasses at all some three billion years ago. A recent analysis of the Earth’s mantle provides evidence in support of that idea. Published in the journal AGU Advances, it suggested that back when the planet was a molten ball of magma, its mantle […]

Just one day of bad air can negatively affect children’s health, caution scientists
Exposure to air pollution has been associated with serious health problems in adults. However, its effects on children’s health remain unclear. Now, a study has shown that children exposed to air pollution for as little as one day may face a higher risk of heart disease and other ailments in adulthood. Published in Scientific Reports, […]

Neonicotinoids can cause severe birth defects in white-tailed deer, warn researchers
New research from South Dakota State University revealed how exposure to neonicotinoids – toxic pesticides associated with bee deaths – could be causing serious birth defects in white-tailed deer. Published in Scientific Reports, it showed that adult white-tailed deer with elevated levels of neonicotinoids in their spleens developed certain defects, such as smaller reproductive organs and pronounced overbites, as well as […]

1 in 3 COVID-19 survivors suffer neurological or mental disorders, new research reveals
One in three COVID-19 survivors has been diagnosed with a neurological or mental disorder within six months of infection. This is according to an observational study of over 230,000 patient health records. Published Tuesday, April 6, in The Lancet Psychiatry journal, the study also showed that COVID-19 survivors were far more likely to be diagnosed with conditions like […]
