“We have been building models and there are now robust contradictions,” says Liu, a professor in the UW-Madison Center for Climatic Research. “Data from…
Their recent findings, published in the Aug. 10 issue of The Astrophysical Journal, describe radio wave emissions that result from the interaction between…
A symposium focusing on climate's effects on predators—causing cascading effects on whole ecosystems — will take place on Tuesday, August 12th during the…
Man-made global warming can explain a gradual increase in periods of severe heat, but the observed change in the magnitude and duration of some events is not…
Forest clearance threatens the island's snakes and lizards, whilst illegal collecting for trade and consumption heavily affects tortoises and turtles. Yet,…
Previously, it was unclear how the immune system prevents viruses from simply donning molecular camouflage in order to escape detection. An international team…
