Our schools are a dated mix of single glazing, dodgy pipes and atriums like Kew hothouses. They urgently need retrofitting for a changing climateThis week’s soaring summer temperatures have put a spotlight on our schools and their ability to cope, with one in Hertfordshire tellin

Training in computational thinking can improve a student's ability to tackle complex problems, according to research in the International Journal of Technology Enhanced Learning, which examined both students' perceptions of their own skills and their demonstrated performance. The

Greater agility in the sales system—that is, a company's ability to rapidly adapt its sales channels to changing market conditions—is associated with higher operating profit, but only under certain conditions. That is the result of an observational, survey-based study involving 3

A new study debunks a recent claim that astronomers may have detected a lunar-mass primordial black hole. In a reanalysis of observations from the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), researchers found that the star nicknamed "Phoebe" was simply doing something ordinary that many stars do

Red-tailed hawks can compensate for feather loss during molt by subtly changing their wing and tail movements, according to a new study by University of California, Davis, researchers in the College of Engineering and the Weill School of Veterinary Medicine.

Climate change is not only warming our lakes and rivers, it is also changing what invasive species eat. A new experimental study published in Limnology and Oceanography Letters shows that temperature-driven diet shifts in an invasive crustacean could alter its ecological role in

European brown bears are masters of survival: These animals have weathered Pleistocene climate fluctuations and survived the cycles of ice ages and interglacial periods to the present day. Zoologists have now investigated the origins of this evolutionary flexibility: 3D analyses

Worsened drought stress, changing rainfall patterns, flowers and pollinators thrown out of sync: These only scratch the surface of the ways climate change challenges plant life. But warmer air and higher carbon dioxide levels can also fuel faster plant growth, limit plants' water

In Jamestown, Virginia, one of the most important places in American history is in a race against time from rising watersSean Romo stops digging the moment he sees a faint line emerge in the sandy Virginia soil.It’s just a slight change in color, but to Romo, director of archaeol

The human brain evolved for a world of familiar faces, immediate threats and small social groups. But the world around us is changing far faster than human biology can keep pace. That mismatch may help explain some of the stress, loneliness and constant comparison people experien

Universities need to rethink how they teach, assess and prepare students for employment as artificial intelligence becomes an increasingly important part of everyday life and work, according to a new study from the University of Manchester. The paper, published in Frontiers in Ed

Climate pledges are designed to help countries reduce emissions and adapt to a changing climate, but the current iterations of these pledges place additional stresses on vulnerable nations, an international team of researchers co-led by University of Michigan Engineering and KTH
