Climate change is accelerating extreme melting in Greenland with global impacts, says study

Climate change is accelerating extreme melting in Greenland with global impacts, says study

Climate change is accelerating the melting of ice in Greenland at an alarming rate, with serious implications not only for the Arctic, but also for the global climate, including Europe. According to a study led by researchers at the University of Barcelona, extreme melting episodes—periods when large areas of snow and ice melt rapidly—have been about twice as frequent during summers in recent decades compared to the period 1950–1990.

Making 'atomic lasagna': New method transforms 3D materials into stable layered thin films with promising properties

A research team discovered a method to transform materials with three-dimensional atomic structures into nearly two-dimensional structures—a promising advancement in controlling their properties for chemical, quantum, and semiconducting applications.

How bacteria actively use passive physics to make biofilms

How bacteria actively use passive physics to make biofilms

When we think about bacteria, we may imagine single cells swimming in solution. However, similarly to humans, bacterial cells often socialize, using surfaces to coalesce into complex heterogeneous communities called biofilms. Within a group, bacteria in the biofilm are extremely robust in resisting various environmental stresses—a crucial feature making biofilm-associated infections extremely difficult to treat with antibiotics.

Chemical imaging method holds promise for separate overlapping fingerprints

Chemical imaging method holds promise for separate overlapping fingerprints

A new study from the Department of Forensic Medicine at Aarhus University is the first in the world to analyze fingerprints on gelatin lifters using chemical imaging. This could be crucial in criminal cases where current methods fall short.

Proteins involved in regulating the cell membrane could lead to new treatments

Proteins involved in regulating the cell membrane could lead to new treatments

Scientists at Kyoto University's Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (WPI-iCeMS) have uncovered new details about how cells manage the distribution of lipids in their cell membrane. These lipids, known as phospholipids, are arranged in a bilayer of membranes, regulating entry and exit of certain molecules to maintain a stable internal environment.

Social connections and local identities found to influence how language spreads in different areas

Social connections and local identities found to influence how language spreads in different areas

Think about the terms you use and why you started using them. Do you describe circular traffic patterns as "roundabouts," "traffic circles" or "rotaries?" Is your beverage preference called "pop," "soda" or "coke?" Do you wear "sneakers," "tennis shoes," or "gym shoes?"

Global warming is driving rapid evolutionary response in fruit flies, research suggests

Global warming is driving rapid evolutionary response in fruit flies, research suggests

Researchers from the UAB have observed that the rise in temperatures and episodes of heat waves in the past two decades has accelerated the presence of genetic variations that increase tolerance to high temperatures in populations of flies commonly found in European forests, the Drosophila subobscura.

Findings from experimental setup demonstrate potential for compact and portable nuclear clocks

Findings from experimental setup demonstrate potential for compact and portable nuclear clocks

Scientists use atomic clocks to measure the "second," the smallest standard unit of time, with great precision. These clocks use natural oscillations of electrons in atoms, similar to how pendulums work in old grandfather clocks. The quest for an even more precise timekeeper led to the discovery of nuclear clocks, which use the transitions of atomic nuclei instead of electrons to keep time.
