Microbes Uncovered in Amazon Peatlands Could Alter Global Carbon Dynamics
Microscopic organisms found in the tropical peatlands of Peru’s northwestern Amazon are helping regulate the carbon cycle, a key factor in Earth’s climate. These microbes, part of the Bathyarchaeia group, thrive in waterlogged, oxygen-deprived conditions and exhibit unique metabolic behaviours that either store or release carbon. Researchers wa...

Watch: California Coast Illuminated By Glowing Blue Waves
The science behind these luminous waves traces back to microscopic plankton called dinoflagellates, single-celled organisms that emit light when agitated.

How Long Did It Take For Life To Rebound After The Death Of The Dinosaurs?
It doesn't take a very long time to irreversibly change the planet. In just a few dozen millennia - a geologic blink of an eye - three quarters of Earth's living things went extinct 66 million years ago. The cause was probably a massive asteroid impact, possibly accompanied by colossal volcanic eruptions. The consequences of what scientists call th...
