The same global food system that is fueling rising obesity rates is also accelerating climate change, according to a sweeping ...

Climate change is driving drastic environmental shifts and accelerating global biodiversity loss. Hybrid introgression has recently emerged as a key mechanism enabling rapid adaptation to historical ...

As climate change rapidly transforms ecosystems, it threatens to wipe out vital species, potentially leading to ecosystem collapse. Islands, to which many species from elsewhere can’t disperse ...

Digital evolution experiments show repeated environmental changes can push populations toward different long term outcomes.

UC Santa Cruz researchers show how vessel-tracking data mirrored tuna roaming beyond their typical territory due to unusually ...

A powerful future earthquake, coupled with climate-driven surges in sea levels, could significantly increase flood risks in the Pacific Northwest, a study has found. These conditions could impact ...

Researchers compared how genetically similar populations of Pocillopora corals cope with heat stress in Panama’s Gulf of Panama and Gulf of Chiriquí, both on the Pacific coast. The team looked at the ...

Human-caused climate change was responsible for about a quarter of the fuel available for the wildfires that have devastated the Los Angeles area, according to research from University of California, ...

A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...

For thousands of years, writers have come up with increasingly creative ways to describe the “wine-dark sea.” But a new study suggests that modern poets may be faced with a slightly different palette.
