Jellyfish Apocalypse: Problems, Causes and Opportunities
When does the future start with regards to the ocean? Rising sea levels, ocean acidification, and overfishing are problems that the ocean faces right now. An ocean full of jellyfish is a probable future. Jellyfish can be very beautiful with their movements and bioluminescence and have an interesting life cycle.
Maximizing Gibberellic Acid’s Efficiency to Increase Growth
Gibberellic acid (GA3) is a plant hormone that was first isolated from the fungus Gibberella in Japan in the 1930s. It was found to promote plant growth activity. Gibberellic acid has since been isolated from a variety of different plant types, ranging from beans to tobacco.
Seed size and its rate of evolution correlate with species diversification across angiosperms
Angiosperms are one of the most species-rich clades on Earth and have dominated terrestrial plant communities since the Late Cretaceous Period. The astounding diversity of flowering plants is distributed extremely unevenly across the Tree of Life (ToL). Each of the 5 most species-rich angiosperm families contains more than 10,000 species, while more than 200 families contain less than 100 species each.
Melting Arctic Ice and its Possible Impacts on Humans
How does the reduction of Arctic Sea ice directly impact the habitat of human beings? In this paper, we discuss the myriad ways that the Arctic sea ice could potentially harm human beings by reducing certain animal habitats that are used for subsistence.
Ringed Seal (Phoca hispida) And The Shrinking Arctic Sea Ice
It is now a common belief that global warming is the main cause for the melting of the sea ice of our planet Earth. The Arctic Sea ice is no exception. Evidences of scientific exploration and research with the aid of satellite technology reveal that the Arctic sea ice is continuously shrinking.
