Research shows humans have a long way to go in understanding a dog’s emotions
2025-03-10
EMBARGOED: FOR RELEASE 7:01 A.M. (ET), MARCH 10, 2025
Tempe, Ariz., March 10, 2025 – Life with a dog is a matter of give and take. Especially when it comes to communication. With no common human-dog language, our ability to communicate relies on understanding and reading our pet, and vice versa. That process can seem seamless. You give your dog a treat, you look into her eyes and she says “I am delighted to have that cookie.” With a slight wag of her tail, she accepts the treat ...
Discovery: The great whale pee funnel
2025-03-10
Whales are not just big, they’re a big deal for healthy oceans. When they poop, whales move tons of nutrients from deep water to the surface. Now new research shows that whales also move tons of nutrients thousands of miles—in their urine.
In 2010, scientists revealed that whales, feeding at depth and pooping at the surface, provide a critical resource for plankton growth and ocean productivity. Today, a new University of Vermont-led study shows that whales also carry huge quantities ...
Team of computer engineers develops AI tool to make genetic research more comprehensive
2025-03-10
University of Florida researchers are addressing a critical gap in medical genetic research — ensuring it better represents and benefits people of all backgrounds.
Their work, led by Kiley Graim, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Computer & Information Science & Engineering, focuses on improving human health by addressing "ancestral bias" in genetic data, a problem that arises when most research is based on data from a single ancestral group. This bias limits advancements in precision medicine, Graim said, and leaves large portions ...
Are volcanoes behind the oxygen we breathe?
2025-03-10
It is widely believed that Earth’s atmosphere has been rich in oxygen for about 2.5 billion years due to a relatively rapid increase in microorganisms capable of performing photosynthesis. Researchers, including those from the University of Tokyo, provide a mechanism to explain precursor oxygenation events, or “whiffs,” which may have opened the door for this to occur. Their findings suggest volcanic activity altered conditions enough to accelerate oxygenation, and the whiffs are an indication of this taking place.
Take a deep breath. Do you ever think about the air entering your lungs? It’s ...
The two faces of liquid water
2025-03-10
Water is unique. It is one of the only substances that can exist in nature as a solid, liquid and gas at the same time under ambient conditions (think of solid ice over a pond, which is liquid underneath while storm clouds float overhead). It is also one of the only substances whose solid form is less dense than its liquid — this is why ice floats.
Now scientists from the University of California San Diego have uncovered a key finding to another unique property: at high pressure and low temperature, liquid water separates into two distinct liquid phases — one high-density ...
The Biodiversity Data Journal launches its own data portal on GBIF
2025-03-10
The Biodiversity Data Journal (BDJ) became the second open-access peer-reviewed scholarly title to make use of the hosted portals service provided by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF): an international network and data infrastructure aimed at providing anyone, anywhere, open access to data about all types of life on Earth.
The Biodiversity Data Journal portal, hosted on the GBIF platform, is to support biodiversity data use and engagement at national, institutional, regional and thematic scales by facilitating access and reuse of data by users with various expertise ...
Do firefighters face a higher brain cancer risk associated with gene mutations caused by chemical exposure?
2025-03-10
Gene mutations caused by exposure to certain chemical compounds have been linked to the development of gliomas, the most common type of malignant brain tumor. New research reveals that among patients with gliomas, these mutations are more common in firefighters than in individuals with other occupations. The findings are published by Wiley online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
The gene mutations of interest in this study make up a mutational pattern or “signature” that other investigators previously associated with exposure to haloalkanes, which ...
Less than half of parents think they have accurate information about bird flu
2025-03-10
With soaring egg prices and ongoing bird flu headlines, many parents are uncertain about the risks and facts surrounding the virus, a national poll suggests.
Most parents say they don’t know if there have been cases of bird flu in their state, and less than half feel that they are able to find accurate and current information about it, according to the University of Michigan Health C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital National Poll on Children’s health.
“Many parents may hear about bird flu in the news but don’t feel well-informed or know if they should be taking action to protect their families,” said Mott Poll Co-Director Sarah Clark, M.P.H.
“This ...
Common approaches for assessing business impact on biodiversity are powerful, but often insufficient for strategy design
2025-03-10
A University of Oxford study has determined that the widely used tools available to businesses for assessing their biodiversity impacts depend on broad assumptions and can have large uncertainties that are poorly understood or communicated. If used appropriately, they can be powerful tools to help guide effective action to address biodiversity loss – but if not, they can lead to misguided effort and can be insufficient for robust biodiversity strategy design.
Businesses across a range of industries and sectors are under growing pressure to develop biodiversity strategies that not only minimise their negative impacts but ...
Can a joke make science more trustworthy?
2025-03-10
Politicians learned this lesson a long time ago: a well-placed joke is a valuable tool for capturing public attention and building trust. Scientists, however, are much more reluctant to use humor when engaging in science communication. They may fear that a lighthearted approach could make them seem less authoritative and, consequently, make scientific findings appear less credible.
The good news, however, is that science itself seems to contradict this assumption. A new study led by Alexandra Lynn Frank, a ...
