Food safety, soils and manure: How a systemic approach can prevent health risks‎

In many parts of the world, including China, soil acidification is reducing agricultural yields. Recycling animal manure can help counteract this acidification and is therefore a key component of circular agriculture. However, this approach also has a downside.

Legged robot could accelerate resource prospecting on the moon and the search for life on Mars‎

Planetary surface missions currently operate cautiously. On Mars, communication delays between Earth and rovers (typically between four and 22 minutes), as well as data transfer constraints due to uplink and downlink limitations, force scientists to plan operations in advance. Rovers are designed for energy efficiency and safety, and to move slowly across hazardous terrain.

German firms trapped between US and China, study finds‎

Germany's largest companies are deeply entangled with rival businesses in China and the US, and unable to escape either superpower, according to new research published by the University of Sussex and King's College London. The findings are published in the journal Review of International Political Economy.

Tropical geckos in Australia are more adaptable than we thought‎

Earth is teeming with life: creatures big and small have spread and adapted to vastly different environments. Many animals can also change their physiology—how their bodies function—in response to local fluctuations. Just think of hibernating bears in winter, for example.

New forensic tool provides intelligence to link serial killer victims by analyzing facial similarities‎

Researchers at Murdoch University have developed a forensic intelligence tool which could help police link the victims of serial offenders by analyzing their facial appearance. The study, "Development of face similarity linkage for the attribution of intelligence links in unsolved sexually motivated serial homicide," is published in The Police Journal: Theory, Practice and Principles.

Your post-gym protein shake may get a taste upgrade: Manufacturing can improve whey protein drink palatability‎

The taste and texture profile of protein shakes could be improved by tweaking the way whey protein is made, new research has found. An ongoing collaboration among the University of Reading, Aberystwyth University and Arla Foods Ingredients has resulted in the production of whey protein (a dairy-derived ingredient found in gym shakes and sports supplements) with improved texture characteristics. The findings, published in the International Dairy Journal, suggest that manufacturing changes have the potential to improve the palatability of whey protein drinks.

How the solar wind really works‎

The sun, our nearest star, never stops breathing. Every second of every day, it exhales a vast stream of charged particles that sweeps outward through the solar system at hundreds of kilometers per second. We call it the solar wind, and while that name conjures something gentle and constant, the reality is considerably more turbulent.

How scientists prepare expeditions in remote environments‎

Scientific expeditions require months of planning before scientists can acquire the first data. A bark cuts through the Arctic silence, waking Anna up. She slept only three hours after collecting the last sample. Anna reaches for her rifle, exits the tent, and steps onto the midnight ice. She pets the guard dog she rented a few days earlier. It might be a false alarm, but she scans the darkness for polar bears, hoping her training pays off. She cannot afford to lose the samples. Nor her life.
