Blend of Warmer Water, Chemical Exposure Influence Gene Expression Across Generations in a Coastal Fish
Warmer water temperatures, combined with low-level exposure to chemicals already known to be harmful to aquatic life, influence the expression of genes in the offspring of an abundant North American fish species – and threaten organisms whose sex determination is sensitive to water temperature.
Manchester Scientists Use Nobel-Prize Winning Chemistry For Clean Energy Breakthrough
Scientists have used a Nobel-Prize winning Chemistry technique on a mixture of metals to potentially reduce the cost of fuel cells used in electric cars and reduce harmful emissions from conventional vehicles.
Climate Change Could Make Corals Go It Alone
Climate change is bad news for coral reefs around the world, with high ocean temperatures causing widespread bleaching events that weaken and kill corals.
To Solve Pollinator Health Crisis, State Governments Are Key
Insect pollinators are vital to the existence of almost 90 percent of the world’s flowering plants, including a large portion of food products.
Hybrid Electricity System Would Reduce Rates, Improve Service
A new distribution system designed by researchers at the University of Waterloo would reduce electricity prices by more than five per cent while also improving service reliability.
