Abstract The fate of tropical peatland carbon cycling under environmental change is highly uncertain. We found that a palm swamp peatland in the Peruvian Amazon that was a strong annual sink for 2 years switched to carbon neutral in the absence of a major anthropogenic disturbance. We attributed the change in carbon sink strength to (a) photoinhibition

Scientists studying thunderstorms hope that using an “uninhabited aerial vehicle,” or UAV will allow them to overcome speed limitations of conventional aircraft to gain a better understanding of weather data and forecasting.Researchers with the Altus Cumulus Electrification Study (ACES) say that the Altus UAV flies at between 129 and 185 kilometers per

What's new? Novel immunomodulatory insights derived from experimental models and clinical samples reveal the cancer‐preventive potential of intermittent low‐dose erlotinib plus sulindac (ERL + SUL). This study shows that ERL + SUL treatment upregulates MHC class I and II expression and remodels the immune cell niche, with significant tumor suppression ...
