Marine life is thriving on the Antarctic seafloor, even after being trapped under the ice for 50 years
Researchers have discovered that the Antarctic seabed is teeming a rich community of sea creatures. The marine organisms – trapped under the ice for five decades – came to light after an iceberg over two times bigger than New York City broke off of the Brunt Ice Shelf in northern Antarctica last month. The iceberg, called A-74, drifted into the Weddell Sea […]

Green scream: Plants emit “ultrasonic squeals” when stressed by drought or physical damage
Plants let out “ultrasonic squeals” when they are damaged or stressed by drought. Researchers at Tel Aviv University in Israel discovered this after placing microphones near tomato and tobacco plants. Thanks to the microphones, the researchers were able to detect distinct sounds emanating from the plants. The sounds are too high-frequency for humans to hear, but other plants and some animals may be able to perceive […]

Scientists discover fully regenerating marine animal
Certain amphibians, fish and other sea creatures can grow back missing limbs or damaged organs like brains and hearts. But one species of sea squirt, in particular, takes regeneration to the extreme, growing back entire organs even after being dissected into three separate, organless sections. Researchers from Tel Aviv University in Israel were shocked to discover that the sea […]

Sharks use Earth’s magnetic field like GPS, study suggests
A new study published in the journal Current Biology suggests that sharks use the Earth’s magnetic field to find their way in the sea. Researchers led by biologist Bryan Keller reported this after exposing bonnethead sharks to different magnetic conditions. In one test, the bonnetheads were tricked into thinking that they were located south of their home. In response, the […]

Installing solar panels on pastures boosts land productivity, study finds
Raising lambs in the same area where solar panels are installed increases farmland’s ability to support crops and livestock. This is the conclusion of Oregon State University researchers after comparing pastures covered in solar panels with “traditional” open pastures. The researchers detailed their findings in a paper published in the journal Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems. Exploring agrivoltaics […]

Giant tortoises can remember their training even after 10 years – study
Scientists discovered that giant tortoises can remember skills that they learned a decade ago, exceeding their reputation as animals lacking in speed and cognitive ability. In their report, a research team from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology studied Galapagos and Seychelles tortoises at zoos in Vienna and Zurich for nine years. For their experiment, they trained the tortoises […]
