Climate scientists are increasingly studying the possibility of an Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) collapse, a major climate tipping point that could reshape weather patterns across the globe. Research on ocean currents, climate change, global cooling, abrupt climate shifts and AMOC weakening suggests that some regions could experience severe temperature drops even as the planet continues to warm overall.

People have always looked to nature for ideas, whether observing how lotus leaves repel water or the sleek shape of kingfishers. Now, scientists are checking on how polar animals handle the cold, as these survival methods might help us.

Almost two thousand years after Herculaneum was buried under the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, scientists say that a mysterious black matter found inside a victim's skull may represent one of the most unusual forms of preservation in history.

The study, 'Explosive cytotoxicity of ruptoblasts bridges hormone surveillance and immune defense', was authored by Stanford University scientists. It was published in the journal Cell.

Researchers are using AI to analyse animal sounds and behaviour across species, including sperm whales and mice. The work is revealing complex patterns while underlining the scientific, legal and ethical limits of interspecies communication.

The Trump administration plans to scale back a major deep-ocean monitoring network funded by the NSF. Scientists say the move could interrupt vital data as El Nino risks and ocean current concerns grow.

AI is helping scientists decode how animals communicate. From mice to chimpanzees, researchers believe the technology could one day enable limited human-animal interactions., Technology & Science, Times Now

Most drones rely on GPS and powerful computers to find their way around. That makes them heavy, expensive, and power-hungry, basically not practical for anything small.

The human brain contains roughly 86 billion neurons, and for decades scientists have assumed that these cells are the primary drivers of memory and cognition. However, a new study from researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) suggests that another type of brain cell, long considered little more than support tissue, may play a much larger role than previously believed.

For years, scientists believed that only humans and a handful of vertebrates could tell the difference between short and long durations, a skill as fundamental as reading the dots and dashes of Morse code. But researchers at Queen Mary University of London have turned that assumption on its head, proving that buff-tailed bumblebees can do something previously thought impossible for insects: distinguish between different lengths of light flashes and use that information to find food.
