From Romania to Kazakhstan, summer droughts linked to less winter ice in two rapidly warming seas‎

This summer, with its scarce rainfall and repeated heat waves, witnessed one of the most severe droughts in Europe since 1540. The resulting wildfires across western Europe received considerable media attention, but eastern Europe was also heavily hit, worsening the humanitarian crisis caused by the war in Ukraine. Simulations have shown that such droughts are bound to become more frequent and severe in the future due to man-made global warming.

Only half of England's young workers outside higher education secure permanent contracts, down from 81%‎

The study of young people in England found that among those who did not progress to higher education, only 16% secured apprenticeships and just 23% had secured stable work by ages 19–20. Of those in work, only half had a permanent contract, down from 81% in a similar study six years ago.

Microplastics found in wild mammals' blood more than 40 miles from human infrastructure‎

Animals, like humans, are taking up increasing amounts of tiny plastic particles. Such microplastics are demonstrably hazardous to many species under experimental conditions, and it is suspected that they may also pose a threat to animals in the wild. While data about microplastic concentrations in the terrestrial environment exist, it has not yet been clear if higher exposure also translates into higher microplastic accumulation in individual animals. A new paper published in Nature now confirms this link.

New study maps the genetic landscape of bovine TB across Wales‎

Bovine tuberculosis is evolving in different ways across different regions in Wales, according to the most detailed analysis of the bacterium conducted to date. One of the most significant animal health challenges facing Wales, bovine TB affects cattle health and farm businesses and places considerable emotional, social and financial pressures on farming communities.

Even parasites have parasites: Fungus infects powdery mildew‎

In the fungal kingdom, no one is safe from parasites—not even other parasites. A new study from North Carolina State University finds that Ampelomyces, an intracellular fungus that infects the plant disease powdery mildew, is far more common than previously known. By screening museum samples of powdery mildews up to about 150 years old, researchers discovered that not only is Ampelomyces quite common, but many specimens labeled as Ampelomyces are misidentified.

Independent technique validates landmark M87* image‎

The 2019 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) image was the work of hundreds of scientists and captured the first direct view of a black hole's shadow—becoming one of the most recognized scientific images of the modern era. A team of four from CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, has developed a powerful new imaging technique that validated the landmark 2019 image of the black hole at the center of galaxy M87.
