The largest climate change-induced reductions in snowpack have occurred in central and eastern Europe, along with the south-western and north-eastern United States.

Stress has always been talked about as a fundamental factor in physical health. The way we perceive time also plays a role, opening up new relationships between mind and body.
A newly found fossil "giant worm" from the Cambrian revelas a "world of worms" eating other marine lifeforms in the ancient ocean.
Like children born at the stroke of midnight on the new year, the exoplanet TOI 700 is, in chronological order, the first rocky planet discovered in 2023. We are waiting to find out which one will be the first of 2024. Stay tuned.
Starting in 2006, the dwarf planet classification began to be used. Pluto was considered, until that moment, the ninth planet in the Solar System: what happened to remove it from our planetary group?
Colossal, a biotechnology company whose investors include the CIA (yes, that one of the spies), aims to "resurrect" extinct species before the end of the decade.
A new scientific study dives into the little-known realm of nanoplastics, the generation of microplastics that have been further subdivided. They detected between 10 and 100 times more particles than previous estimates.
In the middle of the Tasman Sea there is an islet that has a peculiar shape, the Ball Pyramid. A rare insect that was believed to be extinct was found on this rocky islet.
Outer space is a profoundly dark place even though it is close to the Sun and many questions arise about why the Sun's light does not illuminate space if it illuminates the Earth. Astronauts answer this question that even entered the minds of children.
Climate models simulate the Earth's climate system. Unlike weather models, the goal is not to predict the weather for the next few days, but rather to estimate the future climate for the next few decades. But how do these climate models really work?
Mirabilite is a temperamental mineral and requires a specific temperature and humidity to preserve. It is difficult to preserve the substance, because under unfavourable conditions the crystals quickly transform into a gaseous state.
The future of wind energy appears to be a combination of wood and glue, completely clean and with no carbon footprint.
