The NASA Kepler Spacecraft has discovered more than 2,000 planets which have been confirmed to be orbiting distant stars. It performs this remarkable feat by imaging more than 145,000 stars simultaneously to observe and measure the tiny dips in light which occur as a planet passes in front of its star. Astronomers have long known that many of the solar systems in the Milky Way have more than one star. To investigate the possibilities for life in a double star system, Dr Max Popp a scholar at Princeton University and Dr. Siegfried Eggl of Germany's Max Plank Institute substituted the real giant planet orbiting the stellar pair Kepler 35A and B with an Earth sized one orbiting the Kepler AB pair with periods between 341 and 380 days. Their detailed analysis is published in the journal Nature Communications.

One whale's waste is an ocean organism's treasureThe nutrients in the ocean are not evenly distributed. Resources tend to be rich around coastlines and near the poles, and are often poorer in the open ocean and the tropics. A new study has explored how urine from migrating baleen whales is a significant way that nitrogen and other nutrients are circulated in the oceans. Joe Roman is a conservation biologist at the University of Vermont. He led the research, published in the journal Nature Communications. The underground economy: Fungi and plants trade have a network under our feetScientists have used a custom robot to track the growth of a complex underground supply-chain network that forms between more than 80 per cent of the plant species on Earth and symbiotic fungus. This allowed them to trace the flow of carbon and nutrients across this network,  that draws about 13 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the soil each year. Toby Kiers, from Vrije University in Amsterdam and the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks led the work, published in the journal Nature.  Researchers capture wild sharks to get sperm samples for captive breedingIn a world-first, a team of marine biologists and veterinarians collected semen from endangered wildsharks in an effort to maintain a population of genetically healthy sharks.

Dori Blakely, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, was the lead researcher on this article published in The Astronomical Journal. Butterfly populations are declining. Meet the people moving a forest to save them.A new study is bringing hard data to help us understand how butterfly numbers have declined steeply in recent years, due to the combination of habitat loss, climate change, and pesticide exposure. The research, co-led by Elise Zipkin, found that overall, across the United States, butterfly numbers are down 22 per cent over the past 20 years. The research was published in the journal Science.A different group of scientists is hoping to fix at least one of these problems for one species, by moving an entire forest in Mexico. The sacred fir trees, where monarch butterflies spend their winters, are struggling under climate change. Recently a team of researchers planted a thousand sacred fir trees at a new location at higher elevations to kickstart a new, future-proof forest for the butterflies to overwinter. After a few years, the researchers report the trees are doing well, in a recent paper published in Frontiers in Forests and Global Change.Quirks producer Amanda Buckiewicz spoke to Cuauhtémoc Saénz Romero, a forest geneticist at the University of Michoacán in Mexico, and Greg O'Neill, a climate change adaptation scientist with the BC Provincial Government in the Ministry of Forests.

Watching polar bear mums and cubs emerge from their winter densPolar Bear mothers spend the winter in warm and cozy dens, gestating and then birthing their cubs, and right about now the baby bears are taking their first steps out of the dens and beginning to explore the real world. Using satellite collars and remote camera technology, researchers from Polar Bears International, the Norwegian Polar Institute, and the San Diego Wildlife alliance, now have an exciting new picture of how and when they leave their winter refuges. The team included Louise Archer, Polar Bears International Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto Scarborough, and their observations were published in The Journal of Wildlife Management.Lousy sleep? It's quality, not quantity that may be your problemResearchers from the University of Toronto Mississauga have compared sleep in modern, industrial societies with non-industrialised societies, such as remote tribes in Tanzania and the Amazon. The team, led by anthropologist David Samson, found that people in modern societies sleep for significantly longer, but have weaker natural circadian rhythms, and so their sleep is not as functional as it should be. The researchers say that could be because people in industrial societies have lost touch with cues that regulate our circadian rhythms, like light and temperature changes. The results were published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.Greenhouse gases are messing up low-earth orbit for satellitesWhile greenhouse gases are warming the Earth's surface, they're paradoxically cooling the upper atmosphere, causing it to contract. And this means trouble for low-earth orbit as space junk and defunct satellites are not running into the tenuous atmosphere and falling out of orbit as fast as they used to. This is making low earth orbit more crowded, and more dangerous. William Parker, a PhD candidate at MIT, led this research, which was published in the journal Nature Sustainability.A 3.5 billion year old crater in Australia is telling the story of the early EarthResearchers have discovered shattered rock in an area of rolling hills in Western Australia that they think is evidence of an enormous and ancient asteroid impact.

Chris Kirkland, a professor of Geology at Curtain University in Perth Australia, was co-lead on this research with Dr. Tim Johnson. Their work was published in the journal Nature Communications.Beyond long COVID — how reinfections could be causing silent long term organ damageIt's now been five years since the COVID pandemic stopped the world in its tracks.

Why is it that humans can talk but mice can't? New research published in the journal Nature Communications found that it might be due to a specific gene. If you asked somebody what sound a mouse makes, most people would answer 'squeak' - but mice can also make chirping sounds in the ultrasonic range that humans can't hear. The researchers took a variant of a gene called NOVA1, which is only found in humans, and gene-edited it into mice. The genetically modified mice started to squeak differently to the mice without the gene. Genetically modified baby mice that were separated from their mothers made very distinctly different sounds compared to non-modified baby mice from the same litter. Adult male mice also changed their songs during mating calls when they had the NOVA1 gene. These results suggests that the human version of NOVA1 is likely to influence vocal communication and could be a key player in the evolution of our speech. To confirm that this genetic variant was truly unique to modern humans, the researchers then did an analysis that checked genomes from extinct human species, the Neanderthals and Denisovans. They found that our ancient ancestors lacked this variant, however it was present in the genomes of modern humans from around the world. Humans are unique as a species when it comes to how we communicate, and knowing the gene involved in language could help us to understand how we began talking in the first place as well as potentially helping in treating speech disorders.

Last week a major study was published by Nature Communications which discovered that pesticides are causing significant harm to numerous species which they are not intended to harm. The review examined over 1700 experimental studies, including a handful from Aotearoa. It found pesticides can reduce plant and animal growth, and affect animals' ability to find a mate or catch prey. However, the researchers note that cutting pesticide use could affect global food supply. Producer Amani spoke with Professor at Lincoln University's Department of Soil and Physical Sciences and Co-Director of Bioprotection Aotearoa, Amanda Black, on how this could have an impact on Aotearoa's produce and economy, and what we can do to avoid harming non-target organisms whilst using pesticides.

In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin's Sophia Chen interviews Gwangmin Bae of Korea University about his work with colleagues on the design of a new smart window system that utilizes compression. Like other smart windows, this window makes use of pores within the material to adjust its transparency. However, instead of using a stretchy material that controls light scattering through the pores, Bae and colleagues used a material that compresses in thickness. That is, the window becomes more transparent when it is compressed. The researchers place this structured porous material made of the polymer polydimethylsiloxane or PDMS between two panes of glass to create the smart window. This work was published in a recent issue of Nature Communications.

In this episode, we have a privilege to talk with Dr. Roxanne Lofredi, a prominent researcher investigating movement disorders and deep brain stimulation (DBS). Dr. Lofredi is based at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and is widely recognized for her groundbreaking contributions to understanding how basal ganglia networks drive motor symptoms in conditions such as dystonia and Parkinson's disease. Today, we'll explore two fascinating studies led by Dr. Lofredi. The first focuses on how subthalamic nucleus stimulation impairs stopping of ongoing movements in Parkinson's disease. This work, published in Brain, was inspired by a foundational basic science study from Aron and Poldrack (2006), which first implicated the subthalamic nucleus as a critical node for motor inhibition within the hyperdirect pathway of the basal ganglia. We'll discuss how these findings translated to her DBS study and how they may impact DBS therapy. The second part of our conversation will cover her recent publication in Nature Communications, where Dr. Lofredi and her team demonstrate a clear link between striato-pallidal oscillatory connectivity and symptom severity in dystonia. This work highlights the pathophysiological role of the direct pathway within the basal ganglia and opens up new possibilities for targeted therapeutic approaches. In conclusion, Dr. Lofredi shares key insights from her research, bridging the gap between basic neuroscience and clinical application. From understanding motor inhibition in Parkinson's disease to exploring striato-pallidal connectivity in dystonia, her work advances our knowledge and paves the way for more effective DBS therapies.

Pourquoi la Méditerranée a-t-elle dèjà perdu 70% de son eau ?

Il y a environ 5,5 millions d'années, la mer Méditerranée a subi un assèchement spectaculaire, perdant jusqu'à 70 % de son volume d'eau. Ce phénomène, connu sous le nom de "crise de salinité messinienne", a transformé la Méditerranée en un vaste bassin salin. Une étude récente dirigée par des chercheurs du CNRS et de l'Institut de physique du globe de Paris, publiée le 18 novembre 2024 dans Nature Communications, apporte un éclairage nouveau sur cet événement géologique majeur. Contexte géologique La crise de salinité messinienne s'est déroulée entre 5,97 et 5,33 millions d'années avant notre ère. Durant cette période, la Méditerranée s'est retrouvée isolée de l'océan Atlantique en raison de la fermeture du détroit de Gibraltar, probablement causée par des mouvements tectoniques. Cette isolation a conduit à une évaporation intense de l'eau de mer, surpassant les apports fluviaux et précipitations, entraînant une baisse drastique du niveau de la mer et une concentration élevée en sels. Découvertes de l'étude L'équipe de chercheurs a analysé les isotopes du chlore présents dans des échantillons de sel prélevés sur le fond marin méditerranéen. Ces analyses ont permis d'identifier deux phases distinctes dans le processus d'assèchement : 1. Première phase : D'une durée d'environ 35 000 ans, cette phase a vu le dépôt de sel principalement dans l'est de la Méditerranée. Ce phénomène a été déclenché par une restriction des échanges entre la Méditerranée et l'Atlantique, conduisant à une accumulation de saumure dans le bassin. 2. Deuxième phase : Sur une période inférieure à 10 000 ans, une évaporation rapide a provoqué une baisse du niveau de la mer de 1,7 à 2,1 km dans l'est et d'environ 0,85 km dans l'ouest de la Méditerranée. Cette diminution a conduit à une accumulation massive de sel sur l'ensemble du bassin. Ces résultats suggèrent que la Méditerranée a subi une évaporation extrême, transformant le bassin en un désert salin. Les dépôts de sel résultants atteignent par endroits jusqu'à 3 km d'épaisseur. Implications et perspectives Comprendre la crise de salinité messinienne est essentiel pour reconstituer l'histoire géologique de la région méditerranéenne et ses impacts sur la biodiversité. Cet événement a profondément modifié les écosystèmes marins et terrestres, entraînant l'extinction de nombreuses espèces et la formation de paysages uniques. Les conclusions de cette étude offrent une perspective précieuse sur les dynamiques océaniques passées et les réponses des environnements marins aux changements climatiques et tectoniques.

Le 25 mai 2022, une étude publiée dans la revue *Nature Communications* a fait état d'une découverte majeure sur la durée de vie maximale des êtres humains. Cette étude s'intéresse à la façon dont le vieillissement affecte les humains et jusqu'à quel point nous pouvons espérer prolonger la vie en bonne santé. Les chercheurs ont utilisé des données sur la capacité de l'organisme à se rétablir après un stress, comme une maladie ou un traumatisme. Cette capacité de récupération, appelée "résilience", se détériore progressivement avec l'âge. L'étude a révélé qu'après un certain point critique, le corps humain perd la faculté de revenir à l'homéostasie, ou à l'état d'équilibre biologique. En utilisant ces modèles, les scientifiques ont estimé que, même en l'absence de maladies chroniques ou d'autres causes de décès, l'organisme humain atteindrait inévitablement une limite biologique au-delà de laquelle il ne pourrait plus maintenir l'équilibre nécessaire à la vie. Cette limite a été déterminée à environ 120 à 150 ans. Cela signifie que, même si nous pouvions prévenir toutes les maladies connues et améliorer considérablement les conditions de vie, le vieillissement biologique intrinsèque imposerait cette barrière à la durée de vie humaine. L'un des aspects les plus intéressants de cette étude est l'utilisation de la "télomérase", une enzyme qui protège les télomères, ces structures situées aux extrémités des chromosomes qui se raccourcissent à mesure que nous vieillissons. Cependant, même les interventions les plus prometteuses, comme celles qui ciblent les télomères ou améliorent la résilience cellulaire, ne semblent pas pouvoir contourner cette limite biologique. Les chercheurs ont également souligné que l'espérance de vie et la durée de vie maximale sont influencées par divers facteurs, y compris le mode de vie, l'accès aux soins de santé et les innovations médicales. Cela implique que même si nous pouvons allonger la durée de vie en bonne santé (ou "healthspan"), l'idée de devenir immortel ou d'étendre notre vie indéfiniment reste un rêve lointain et peu probable, du moins selon les connaissances actuelles. En somme, l'étude fournit une base scientifique pour comprendre les limites de la longévité humaine tout en indiquant que de nouvelles approches en biotechnologie pourraient encore offrir des avancées significatives, mais sans dépasser la limite des 120 à 150 ans fixée par la biologie fondamentale.

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 123*Discovery of a New Region within the Earth's CoreScientists have uncovered a doughnut-shaped region within Earth's molten liquid outer core, located at low latitudes parallel to the equator. This torus-like zone was detected due to seismic waves travelling slower through this area compared to the rest of the liquid outer core. The discovery, published in Science Advances, suggests that this region could be several hundred kilometres thick and contains a high concentration of light chemical elements, which may be affecting the seismic wave speeds. The findings provide new insights into the Earth's magnetic field and its potential future changes.*Fresh Questions about the True Origins of the Earth's MoonA new hypothesis challenges the widely accepted giant impact theory of the Moon's formation. The study proposes that the Moon was captured during a close encounter between the young Earth and a separate terrestrial binary planetary system. This theory could explain the Moon's current orbital plane, more aligned with the sun's ecliptic than Earth's equator. The study opens the door to further exploration of the Moon's origins, especially considering its chemical similarities to Earth.*New Study Reveals More Secrets about Pluto's Binary Partner, CharonNASA's Webb Space Telescope has revealed that Charon, Pluto's binary partner, has significant reserves of carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide on its surface.

The first paper talks about rocks during a time when usually there is not a lot going on because it was just after a time that most things died. Most rocks at this time do not show a lot of things living. These rocks are cool because they are just after the time almost everything died and they show the things that we know lived through that, and that they are all together in a way that looks like the groups of animals we see in rocks way later. The second paper looks at changes in rocks that are because animals move through or on the ground and that gets in the rocks. This area has a lot of these rocks with the bits of animals moving which lets us know a lot about what things were doing on land a long time ago.   References: Dai, Xu, et al.
