Land was once set aside as Native American reservations because it was undesirable and low in resources, but now interested Native Americans may have economic leverage in the growing industry of clean energy. A team of researchers led by UW–Madison professors Dominic Parker and Sarah Johnston quantified the economic potential of wind and solar energy projects on these lands and discussed the regulatory barriers for tribes wishing to tap into it.
Cal Poly Humboldt Forestry Professor Jeff Kane is leading a project funded by the USDA Forest Service in collaboration with Ecologist, Kyle Merriam, to reestablish Baker Cypress in areas where it was nearly extirpated by the 2021 Dixie Fire, with significant involvement from students.
UNC School of Medicine researchers are the first to show that an microRNA molecule called miR-29 is instrumental in driving the natural aging process.
After nearly a decade of preparation, scientists – including researchers from Rutgers University – have turned on a new apparatus capable of detecting a host of mysterious tiny particles. Researchers working on the Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) in Batavia, Ill., have started up the new machine and begun detecting the neutrinos produced by Fermilab’s particle accelerator beams.
The research aims to assess changes in surface fuels, tree mortality, regeneration, and the general health of secondary redwood forests.
Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Western Michigan University researchers demonstrated pavement markers that use embedded microchips to transmit road shape information to self-driving cars.
The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons (ASCRS) has issued updated guidelines, published in Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, about how to evaluate and manage chronic constipation. The journal is published in the Lippincott portfolio by Wolters Kluwer.
