Sleep and memories: Study shows sound cues can help participants solve puzzles while they’re ASLEEP
Researchers from Northwestern University have found a fascinating way to activate problem-solving during sleep. In a study published in the journal Psychological Science, the researchers explained how they used sound cues to stimulate information processing in sleeping participants. When the volunteers woke up the next day, they were able to work out the brainteasers they failed to solve the previous night. “This study provides […]

How building a massive solar farm in the Sahara desert could disrupt the climate
Researchers from Sweden warn that installing an enormous array of solar panels in the Sahara desert can drastically alter the climate. In a study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, the researchers described how a giant array of solar panels, such as that planned for the Sahara, could raise global temperatures. This could disrupt precipitation patterns and bring more cyclones […]

Battling skin cancer: Vitamin D may be used to boost anti-tumor activity, study finds
British researchers have found that vitamin D helps fight a serious form of skin cancer known as melanoma. In a study published in the journal Cancer Research, they reported that increasing vitamin D levels can help suppress a signaling pathway linked to the growth and spread of melanoma cells. “[What’s] really intriguing is that we can […]

Study: Mars was once habitable; atmosphere likely formed through the same process as Earth’s
A tantalizing new study published in the journal Nature Astronomy suggests that Mars might have been habitable before. Researchers from Hong Kong and China found that the Martian atmosphere might have evolved in the same way the Earth’s atmosphere did – it was once filled with toxic gases that warmed the planet, then a great oxidation event that […]

Fascinating video shows humpback whales using “bubble-net fishing” to catch their prey
A team led by researchers at the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UH Manoa) has video-recorded humpback whales attempting to catch prey in the water near Alaska. The humpback whales can be seen swimming in a circular pattern while blowing bubbles to create a “net” and encircle their prey. This technique is called bubble-net fishing and is usually done with more […]

Landslides on Mars may be caused by melting underground ice, study suggests
On the surface, Mars seems very quiet. It has no active volcanoes, and the only water it harbors is locked up underground and on the polar caps. But as it turns out, this placid-looking planet hosts landslides called “slumps” from time to time. While scientists have known about these slumps for at least a decade, the mechanisms behind them […]

Even short periods of being sedentary is bad for your heart, caution researchers
Researchers from the University of Liverpool in the U.K. found that short periods of being sedentary can worsen cardiometabolic health. In a study published in the journal Diabetologia, the researchers revealed that reducing physical activity for at least two weeks can lead to a rise in blood sugar levels, disrupt cholesterol levels and impair cardiorespiratory fitness. Increased sedentary behavior worsens cardiometabolic […]
