With El Niño officially declared for summer 2026, Dr. Laura Fernandez and researchers at Macquarie University are testing the use of recycled water to irrigate trees, helping cool Western Sydney.

The giant trees of tropical forests are important allies in the fight against climate change because of their ability to store carbon, yet they are still poorly understood by science. However, a study published in the journal Science reveals a crucial survival mechanism: These tr

Due to increasing heat and drought, forests are turning brown more often before autumn, when leaf senescence normally occurs. It is often unclear whether the trees are actively shedding foliage to avoid a breakdown in water transport or whether browning leaves are a consequence o

Guardian recreates audio landscape of past filled by loud morning symphony before 73m wild birds were lostImagine a deafening abundance of birdsong so loud it wakes your children at dawn; the chirrup of house sparrows, the chattering of starlings, the melody of the wren, and the

Tropical moist forests account for 70% of global living biomass. Deforestation and degradation—that is, the partial damage to tree stands—as well as the subsequent regeneration of forests therefore play a pivotal role in the global carbon cycle. While the effects of large-scale t

Humans and great apes have been giggling in similar ways since branching off the evolutionary tree, a new study suggests.

The warblers—those harbingers of spring in the U.K.—have an unappreciated talent of a different sort. Common U.K. birds, including chiffchaffs and blackcaps, are playing a real role in the pollination of plants, according to new research in the Journal of Ecology.

More than four in five homes and workplaces across 25 European cities have less nearby tree canopy than what is needed for meaningful cooling, according to an open-data analysis by an urban greening expert.

A new genetic analysis of hundreds of cacao trees representing traditional Amazonian varieties grown on farms across Peru has revealed four previously unidentified, genetically distinct groups. Lambert Motilal, with colleagues from the Cocoa Research Center, The University of the

Animals may inhabit the same world as us, but new research shows how their perceptions of what is around them differsImagine standing in your garden. A bumblebee whizzes overhead too quickly to follow, a sparrow darts from the fence to the trees, and a snail lugs itself across th

Northern Ireland has a target of achieving 12% woodland cover by 2050. O recorte ajuda a contextualizar a pauta dentro de Agro.

For every King Arthur or Roland, whose adventures readers can still enjoy today, another hero of ancient literature may have been lost forever. Before the printing press, texts were copied manually. This process introduced errors and innovations. Like mutations in the replication
