Science is what we do when we want to understand how things in the universe work. It is a process of discovering facts and developing theories about how things work and interact with each other. Science is not just limited to the physical world, but also includes the study of human behavior and social interactions. We use scientific methods to study everything from the behavior of animals to the effects of various drugs on people. By using the scientific method, we are constantly learning new things about the world around us. Science is important because it allows us to understand our surroundings and make informed decisions about our lives. It helps us to find solutions to problems and make predictions about future events. Without science, we would be living in complete darkness, unaware of the incredible complexities of the universe around us.
The color palette of the birds you see out your window depends on where you live. If you're far from the Equator, most birds tend to have drab colors, but the closer you are to the tropics, you'll probably see more and more colorful feathers.
Biologists who set out to better understand the effects of climate change on plant species in tropical mountain regions found that even small variations in temperature and moisture can have massive impacts, threatening not only plants that live there, but also the ecosystems they support. A study based on labor-intensive fieldwork and analysis in tropical mountain regions shows that a warmer and drier climate will lead to massive losses of plant species.
In this new series, The Applied Ecologist is amplifying the staff and student voices from the University of Surrey’s Centre for Environment and Sustainability to showcase their diverse, interdisciplinary body of work and to help inspire the next generation. In this post, Jonathan Chenoweth talks about the practitioner training programmes at the Centre for Environment and…
A team of paleontologists and natural science specialists from the U.K., the U.S. and France reports that ancient fossil evidence uncovered on Scotland's Isle of Skye suggests small mammals living millions of years ago may have had longer developmental periods and lifespans than those alive today.
A plane figure is made of line segments or arcs of curves in a plane. It is a closed figure if the figure begins and ends at the same point. We are familiar with plane figures like squares, rectangles, triangles and circles. Definition of Perimeter: The perimeter (P) of a
Mammals that have evolved more developed brains tend to have a smaller size difference between males and females of that species, according to new research led by the University of Bath and published in Nature Communications.
Astronomers at the European Southern Observatory have revealed that the peculiar characteristics of the HD 148937 star system, including a magnetic star and its young appearance, are due to the merger of two stars from an original group of three. This event also formed the surrounding nebula, provid
Researchers discovered that the H5N1 avian influenza virus has spilled over into dairy cattle in the US, posing significant cross-species transmission risks. Their multidisciplinary study reveals the virus's evolution and its zoonotic potential, emphasizing the need for heightened biosecurity measures.
In our latest post Valentin Graf, PhD student at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre in Frankfurt, presents his work ‘Individual behavior shapes patterns of bird-mediated seed dispersal’. He discusses the importance of moving from species to individual scale in ecology, shares how he overcame setbacks at the beginning of the research project, and…
In new research published in PeerJ, researchers from the University of Washington, University of Texas at Austin and Oregon Institute of Technology, led by undergraduate student Abby Burtner, have advanced our understanding of the evolutionary origins of flight in bats.
Writing to Learn Math: Number play doesn’t have to follow school math methods. Do you want your children to develop the ability to reason creatively and figure out things on their own? Help kids practice slowing down and taking the time to fully comprehend a math topic or problem-solving situation with these classic tools of…
The Cambrian fossil record indicates that most animal phyla had diversified and inhabited the Earth's oceans approximately 518 million years ago. But even though chordates—the group that includes vertebrates like humans—were part of this early animal diversification, they make up a relatively small portion of fossils from more than 50 Cambrian sites worldwide.
Here we will get the ideas how to solve the problems on finding the perimeter and area of irregular figures. The figure PQRSTU is a hexagon. PS is a diagonal and QY, RO, TX and UZ are the respective distances of the points Q, R, T and U from PS. If PS = 600 cm, QY = 140 cm
