The researchers looked at ecological data for as long as 33 years after either fire or cutting down juniper was used to control junipers.

Global Change is Triggering an Identity Switch in Grasslands
Since the first Homo sapiens emerged in Africa roughly 300 million years ago, grasslands have sustained humanity and thousands of other species.
How Coastal Mud Holds the Key to Climate Cooling Gas
Bacteria found in muddy marshes, estuaries and coastal sediment synthesise one of the Earth’s most abundant climate cooling gases – according to new research from the University of East Anglia (UEA).
Researchers Develop Materials That Can Revolutionize How Light is Harnessed for Solar Energy
Researchers at Columbia University have developed a way to harness more power from singlet fission to increase the efficiency of solar cells, providing a tool to help push forward the development of next-generation devices.
Uncertainty in Emissions Estimates in the Spotlight
National or other emissions inventories of greenhouse gases that are used to develop strategies and track progress in terms of emissions reductions for climate mitigation contain a certain amount of uncertainty, which inevitably has an impact on the decisions they inform.
Extreme Evolution
Researchers at McMaster University who rush in after storms to study the behaviour of spiders have found that extreme weather events such as tropical cyclones may have an evolutionary impact on populations living in storm-prone regions, where aggressive spiders have the best odds of survival.
