- by EurekAlert!Climate change is reshaping protected area management. A large-scale survey across Europe found that more than half of Natura 2000 protected area managers already perceive climate change as a threat to biodiversity, with the majority accounting for its impacts when planning management practices. However, perceptions vary between regions: managers in the Mediterranean region are more […]
- by NatureNature Geoscience – Earth’s landmass has been sculpted by rivers for millions of years. Humans are now reshaping these landscapes as engineered modifications and the impacts of anthropogenic…
- by TraceyAs the world faces unprecedented challenges, the momentum of today suggests that for nuclear technology the next 70 years may prove even more transformative than the first.
- by ucdavisnewsIt has been assumed that warming temperatures under climate change will boost agricultural pests. But a new study by UC Davis researchers based on field data from California and Spain suggests the effects will be more nuanced, depending on species, crop and location as well as temperature.
- by Isabella Reina BucknerWith cocoa crops increasingly threatened by climate change, UC Davis engineers are helping develop cultured chocolate grown directly from plant cells. The burgeoning technology could transform how chocolate is produced while making the treat more sustainable and resilient.
- by Cambridge_Uni– Achieving an international conservation target to protect almost a third of the world’s land and sea in the next four years could directly affect the lives of almost half the people on the planet, finds a new report. – The study is the first to consider the social implications of the target at the […]
- by Ellyn LapointeA volcanic eruption in the South Pacific cleaned up its own methane pollution, offering a potential mechanism for removing this potent greenhouse gas from the atmosphere.
- by News StaffCommunities across the United States are facing more frequent and damaging floods, storms and other extreme events as a result of climate change and unwise development in vulnerable places. But disaster planners rely primarily on instrumental data of natural disasters, which show only what nature has done recently. A new report from the National Academies […]
