Study reveals the twists and turns of mammal evolution from a sprawling to upright posture

Study reveals the twists and turns of mammal evolution from a sprawling to upright posture

Mammals, including humans, stand out with their distinctively upright posture, a key trait that fueled their spectacular evolutionary success. Yet, the earliest known ancestors of modern mammals more resembled reptiles, with limbs stuck out to their sides in a sprawled posture.

Pushing the boundaries of traditional ceramic techniques by merging art and science

Pushing the boundaries of traditional ceramic techniques by merging art and science

Art and science are sometimes poles apart, but that isn't the case in a research project described in ACS Omega. For this work, an interdisciplinary team merged scientific research, technological advancements and artistic exploration to experiment with the production, properties and application of a new kind of ceramic.

Researchers identify 'dancer' as a new curiosity style in Wikipedia browsing

At one point or another, you may have gone online looking for a specific bit of information and found yourself "going down the Wiki rabbit hole" as you discover wholly new, ever-more fascinating related topics—some trivial, some relevant—and you may have gone so far down the hole it's difficult to piece together what brought you there to begin with.

A cooling shift: Slowing ocean circulation may temper Arctic temperature rise

A cooling shift: Slowing ocean circulation may temper Arctic temperature rise

The Arctic is warming at three to four times the global average. However, new research suggests the slowing of a key ocean current could reduce projected Arctic warming by up to 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century.

Saturday Citations: Reading comprehension; revisiting tardigrade orthodoxy; restoring universal symmetry

Saturday Citations: Reading comprehension; revisiting tardigrade orthodoxy; restoring universal symmetry

This week, physicists suggested that quantum entanglement may be really, really fast rather than instantaneous, and could be measured at an attosecond scale. Paleontologists discovered a fossilized mammal in Colorado that may have lived alongside dinosaurs in the Late Cretaceous. And scientists with the U.S. Geologic Survey reported that up to 95 million people may be relying on drinking water contaminated with PFAS chemicals.

Where did kissing come from? Study introduces the 'groomer's final kiss hypothesis'

Where did kissing come from? Study introduces the 'groomer's final kiss hypothesis'

A team at the University of Warwick is suggesting that human kissing evolved from grooming behaviors observed in ancestral great apes. In a study, "The Evolutionary Origin of Human Kissing," published in Evolutionary Anthropology, the researchers introduce the "groomer's final kiss hypothesis."

Melting Arctic sea-ice could affect global ocean circulation, study warns

Melting Arctic sea-ice could affect global ocean circulation, study warns

The warming climate in polar regions may significantly disrupt ocean circulation patterns, a new study indicates. Scientists discovered that in the distant past, growing inflows of freshwater from melting Arctic sea-ice into the Nordic Seas likely significantly affected ocean circulation, sending temperatures plummeting across northern Europe.
