| Protecting the red coral of the Catalan coastline, Spain Posted: 25 Nov 2011 01:10 PM PST Poaching accounts for the loss of up to 60% red coral biomass in the Medes Islands Marine Reserve, according to a new article. The article reports the first study of poaching and its effects in the marine reserve and raises the alarm about the impact of recreational diving on the coral population of the Medes Islands.  |
| Emerging new properties at oxide interfaces Posted: 25 Nov 2011 01:09 PM PST Researchers discovered a collective electronic state not seen before in the bulk of either two individual insulating oxides, thus demonstrating that electrons at their interface can now exhibit ferromagnetism.  |
| Finger (mal)formation reveals surprise function of desert DNA Posted: 23 Nov 2011 10:35 AM PST Scientists have discovered a genetic mechanism that defines the shape of our members in which, surprisingly, genes play only a secondary role. The research shows the mechanism is found in a DNA sequence that was thought, incorrectly, to play no role. This long string has seven enhancers which, when combined with one another, modulate the activity of the genes responsible for the formation of the fingers.  |
