Biohydrogen (Bio-H₂) is a clean energy source, but making it pure is tricky. Tiny organisms called hydrogenotrophic methanogens can mess it up. Scientists have tried different ways to stop these organisms, but often, these methods hurt the good bacteria that make hydrogen. Now, researchers have foun
The Gulf Stream is a massive ocean current that has been known for centuries. It was first noticed by Spanish sailors in the 1500s. Later, Benjamin Franklin created charts of it in the 1700s. In the 1900s, scientists like Stommel studied it more closely. Today, we use advanced technology to learn ab
Birds in the southwestern United States are changing their molting schedules. This is a big deal because molting is when birds replace their feathers. It's a key part of their yearly cycle. Researchers looked at data from bird banding over 13 years in southeastern Utah. They wanted to see if the ti
Glaciers are melting faster than ever. This is a big deal because it can cause huge problems like landslides and ice collapses. Scientists are working hard to figure out how to predict these disasters. One way they do this is by using something called a discrete element numerical method. This method
In Germany, physical therapy is often the first step for people with hip or knee osteoarthritis. But how do these therapists decide what treatments to use? A recent study looked into this, comparing what therapists actually do with the latest research. Osteoarthritis is a common condition that caus
Golf clubs are changing fast. They're not just for older folks anymore. Younger people, families, and even kids are joining in. This shift is big news for the golf world, especially in places like Texas. Private golf clubs are investing lots of money to keep up with these changes. They're upgrading
Scientists wanted to see if certain markers in the uterus could help predict how well frozen embryo transfers would work. Specifically, they looked at BCL6 and SIRT1, two proteins that play a role in cell function. The study focused on the mid-luteal phase, a crucial time in the menstrual cycle for
TiO2 nanoparticles are like tiny superheroes in the world of environmental science. They help clean up pollutants, but they need a boost to work better under visible light. Scientists have found a way to make them more powerful by adding tiny amounts of aluminum and sulfur. When these elements are
Senators in the US are finally getting a classified briefing about the recent strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, but not without some drama. The White House had to push back the original schedule, which has Democrats pretty upset. They say the administration is keeping them in the dark, especially sin
Iran's nuclear program has taken some serious hits recently. American and Israeli forces have been targeting key sites, but how much damage was actually done? Opinions vary. Fordo, a major enrichment site, is buried deep inside a mountain. It's got thousands of centrifuges working on uranium. The U
