The mass extinction at the end of the Triassic period, 201 million years ago, was caused by extensive volcanic eruptions and a rapidly warming climate as the then-supercontinent Pangaea began to break apart. Global temperatures rose by at least 3–4 degrees Celsius. A new study in Nature Geoscience shows that widespread forest fires raged across the fern savannahs that spread following the die-off

Through the DNA analysis of old air samples collected by the Swedish Armed Forces, researchers at Lund University in Sweden can show that spore dispersal of northern mosses has shifted over the past 35 years. It now starts several weeks earlier, revealing how quickly nature’s calendar can reset in line with a warmer climate. When the Swedish military began collecting air samples in the 1960s to re

Moonlight determines when the red-necked nightjar feeds, migrates and raises its young. A groundbreaking long-term study from Lund University shows how the migratory bird’s entire annual cycle follows the moon’s rhythm. “… the lovely, melancholy moonlight, which makes the birds dream in the trees…”The French poet Paul Verlaine was seemingly wrong in his famous poem Clair de Lune. Moonlight does no

We tend to attribute today's zoological menagerie of dog breeds to Victorian gentlemen with a penchant for selective breeding. The truth, however, goes back much further. An international study shows that the rich morphological variety among dogs began to take off 11,000 years ago – long before nineteenth century kennel clubs. Look at the dogs of today: the dainty Chihuahua, which most resembles a

There is a fast-growing trend to design smart electronics with custom-sized batteries that are embedded into devices with glue and solder. As a result, repairing, reusing, repurposing, and recycling batteries and the devices they power has become increasingly difficult and sometimes simply impossible. The EU battery regulation can address these issues and improve how we produce and consume batteri
