New skull of tube-crested dinosaur reveals evolution of bizarre crest January 25, 2021

The first new skull discovered in nearly a century from a rare species of the iconic, tube-crested dinosaur Parasaurolophus was announced today. The exquisite preservation of the skull, especially the bizarre tube-shaped nasal passage, finally revealed the structure of the crest after decades of disagreement.

Wet and wild: There's lots of water in the world's most explosive volcano January 23, 2021

Conditions inside the Shiveluch volcano include roughly 10%-14% water by weight (wt%), according to new research. Most volcanoes have less than 1% water. For subduction zone volcanoes, the average is usually 4%, rarely exceeding 8 wt%, which is considered superhydrous.

Climate and carbon cycle trends of the past 50 million years reconciled January 22, 2021

Oceanographers fully reconciled climate and carbon cycle trends of the past 50 million years -- solving a controversy debated in the scientific literature for decades.

Tiny particles that seed clouds can form from trace gases over open sea January 22, 2021

New results from an atmospheric study over the Eastern North Atlantic reveal that tiny aerosol particles that seed the formation of clouds can form out of next to nothingness over the open ocean. The findings will improve how aerosols and clouds are represented in models that describe Earth's climate so scientists can understand how the […]

Student uses zebrafish to study spinal deformities January 22, 2021

Molecular developmental biologists used zebrafish embryos to study a gene mutation that causes scoliosis, a sideways curvature of the spine that typically occurs in humans just before puberty.

AI trained to read electric vehicle charging station reviews to find infrastructure gaps January 22, 2021

Although electric vehicles that reduce greenhouse gas emissions attract many drivers, the lack of confidence in charging services deters others. Building a reliable network of charging stations is difficult in part because it's challenging to aggregate data from independent station operators. But now, researchers have developed an AI that can analyze user reviews of these […]

Plant genome editing expanded with newly engineered variant of CRISPR-Cas9 January 22, 2021

Scientists have created a newly engineered variant of the famed gene editing tool CRISPR-Cas9. SpRY removes the barriers of what can and can't be targeted for gene editing, making it possible for the first time to target nearly any genomic sequence in plants for potential mutation.

Reacting to threats by warlord Khalifa Haftar to force Turkish troops out of Libya, Turkish Minister of Foreign Affairs Mevlut Cavusoglu stated that no one has the authority to expel Turkish forces from the north African country.

“No country or person, including warlord Haftar, has the right to ask Turkey to stop its support for Libya.”

The Foreign Minister’s comments follow a recent visit by Turkish Minister of Defence to Libya, in which he promised that anyone that attacks Turkish forces in Libya will become legitimate targets to the Republic of Turkey.

Turkey was the primary supporter for Libya’s UN-recognized Government of National Accords (GNA) against the recent offensive launched by Haftar’s LNA forces against the country’s capital, providing training, military supplies, advisors and soldiers to bolster GNA’s military forces.
