Quantum Fluctuations Can Jiggle Objects On The Human Scale
The universe, as seen through the lens of quantum mechanics, is a noisy, crackling space where particles blink constantly in and out of existence, creating a background of quantum noise whose effects are normally far too subtle to detect in everyday objects.
New Candidate for Raw Material Synthesis Through Gene Transfer
Cyanobacteria hardly need any nutrients and use the energy of sunlight.
Arctic Plants May Not Provide Predicted Carbon Sequestration Potential
The environmental benefits of taller, shrubbier tundra plants in the Arctic may be overstated, according to new research involving the University of Stirling.
In the Arctic, Spring Snowmelt Triggers Fresh CO2 Production
Studies have shown the Arctic is warming roughly twice as fast as the rest of the world, and its soil holds twice the amount of carbon dioxide as the atmosphere.
South Pole Warming Three Times the Global Rate
The South Pole has warmed at a rate three times the global average over the last three decades, according to a new study in the journal Nature Climate Change.
