Analysis of Steamboat Geyser also finds relationship between column height and reservoir depth — ScienceDaily
When Yellowstone National Park’s Steamboat Geyser — which shoots water higher than any active geyser in the world — reawakened in 2018 after three and a half years of dormancy, some speculated that it was a harbinger of possible explosive volcanic eruptions within the surrounding geyser basin. These so-called hydrothermal explosions can hurl mud, sand […]

Following three years of cliff surveys in and near the coastal city of Del Mar, Calif., they […]
Immune protein orchestrates daily rhythm of squid-bacteria symbiotic relationship — ScienceDaily
Nearly every organism hosts a collection of symbiotic microbes — a microbiome. It is now recognized that microbiomes are major drivers of health in all animals, including humans, and that these symbiotic systems often exhibit strong daily rhythms. New research led by University of Hawai’i at Manoa scientists revealed that, in the mutually beneficial relationship […]

A study analyzes the ergonomic relationship between hand and Lower Paleolithic tools
Credit: A. Fedato et al Emiliano Bruner, a paleoneurologist at the Centro Nacional de Investigación sobre la Evolución Humana (CENIEH), has coordinated a study published recently in the journal Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, on the ergonomic relationship between hand and Lower Paleolithic stone tools, in particular for choppers and handaxes. The results of this work, […]
