New study reveals underestimation of carbon uptake in rivers in arid areas, with global implications.
A new study published in the journal, Environmental Research Letters, reports that cooling the planet by injecting sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere—a proposed climate intervention technique—could reduce the nutritional value of the world’s crops.
The breakthrough for creation of transgenic and gene-edited crops without tissue culture was forged by the Institute of Genomics for Crop Abiotic Stress Tolerance.

UBC researchers have identified eight per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in B.C. sea otters.
Techniques to reflect an additional small portion of sunlight back into space could help cool the planet if deployed globally, but they cannot address the full range of climate impacts or replace emission cuts, according to a Royal Society briefing.
An international team of researchers have identified three new species of enchanting, pustular, tree-dwelling toads from Africa. Their solution for having offspring away from water?
The new heat-resistant material could revolutionize energy storage, making liquid metal batteries safe for mobile applications.
New research into how East Antarctica’s ice shelves melt reveals future global sea-level rise predictions could be significantly underestimated.
Rising wildfire risk in the Pacific Northwest combined with notoriously volatile timber pricing may lower forestland values by as much as 50% and persuade plantation owners to harvest trees much earlier than planned, a new analysis of Douglas-fir forests shows.
