| Scientists use nuclear physics to probe Floridan Aquifer threatened by climate change Posted: 30 Sep 2021 01:04 PM PDT Scientists used a nuclear dating technique to study the dynamics of the Floridan Aquifer. The findings show the promise of this emerging technique to help understand geological processes and to forecast the effects of climate change on coastal aquifers. |
| Primordial ‘hyper-eye’ discovered Posted: 30 Sep 2021 07:14 AM PDT Trilobites of the suborder Phacopina had a unique eye in which about 200 large lenses in each eye spanned at least six individual facets, each of which in turn formed its own small compound eye. |
| Geologists solve half-century-old mystery of animal traces in ancient rocks Posted: 27 Sep 2021 12:04 PM PDT Geologists have been baffled by perforations in an Australian quartzite (rock), identical in shape to burrows made in sands by crustaceans; the original sandy sediment is a billion years older than the oldest known animals. An international team of scientists has now resolved the mystery. |
| Maya rulers put their personal stamp on monumental complexes Posted: 21 Sep 2021 10:43 AM PDT Early Maya cities featured monumental complexes, which centered on a shared form of religion but these complexes transformed radically once kingship emerged in 400 B.C.
