Fish Food Fight: Fish Don’t Eat Trees After All
But new research from the University of Washington shows this is not likely to be true. Algae provide a much richer diet for fish and other aquatic life, according to research published this week in t...

The oceans play a key role in regulating climate, absorbing more than a quarter of the carbon dioxide that humans put into the air. Now, the first year-by-year accounting of this mechanism during the ...
Earth Sciences | Read moreWhy Huge Bands of Iron Formed Billions of Years Ago on Earth’s Surface
Because these deposits carry information about early Earth’s surface conditions and climate changes, as well as provide much of modern industry’s iron resources, interested researchers have cast a wid...
