A proposal to regulate the killing of coyotes in California has drawn fierce opposition from ranchers and farmers, who say they need to be able to control the wild canines to protect livestock and pets.
A vast bloom of toxic algae is killing more than 200 species of marine life off the southern coast of Australia, scientists and conservation groups say.
With coral reefs in crisis due to climate change, scientists have engineered a bio-ink that could help promote coral larvae settlement and restore these underwater ecosystems before it's too late. In a paper published in ...
When I first started working with integral field spectroscopic (IFU) data, I was struck by how much complexity was being averaged out or masked by traditional processing techniques. Most segmentation methods in astronomy—especially ...
Global warming is already very tough for animals in the wild, but it may be toughest for creatures like fish, whose body temperatures are controlled by the water temperatures around them.
About 3.7 billion years ago, a string of naturally occurring amino—the same kind that astronomers have found in meteorites and just recently in a stellar nursery near the center of the Milky Way—reacted with a naturally ...
A scientist braving crashing waves to track whales in a northern Norwegian fjord tops a list of winners of Nature's 2025 Scientist At Work competition. Arctic telescopes, tiny frogs, and mountain fog also feature in the top ...
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara, UCSF and the University of Pittsburgh have developed a new workflow for designing enzymes from scratch, paving the way toward more efficient, powerful and environmentally benign chemistry. ...
A protein located in the wrong part of a cell can contribute to several diseases, such as Alzheimer's, cystic fibrosis, and cancer. But there are about 70,000 different proteins and protein variants in a single human cell, ...
Biologists and chemists have a new programming language to uncover previously unknown environmental pollutants at breakneck speed—without requiring them to code. By making it easier to search massive chemical datasets, ...
