 E-Mail A new study by ecologist André de Roos* shows that differences between juveniles and adults of the same species are crucial for the stability of complex ecological communities. The research, published in  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, represents a major advance in ecological modeling at a time when biodiversity is declining and species around the world are rapidly going extinct. Up to now, ecological models have focused exclusively on the interactions between s...

 E-Mail COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- The U.S. Army plans to cooperate in artificial intelligence research with teams led by the University of Maryland, College Park and in partnership with the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. The cooperative agreement brings together a collaborative of nearly 30 diverse experts in engineering, robotics, computer science, operations research, modeling and simulation, and cybersecurity. With the Armys goal of seeking transformational advances in artificial inte...

The five-year survival rate for people on dialysis is under 50 percent. University of California researchers are hoping to improve that prognosis.

This book explains general and specific types of subharmonic functions, related partial differential equations, mathematical proofs and extension results.

Ozone depletion following the Toba eruption around 74,000 years ago compounded the ensuing volcanic winter and caused a human population bottleneck.

Men are more likely to make extreme choices and decisions than women, according to new research on economic decision-making, led by an international team of scientists.

Ecole de technologie superieure (ETS) welcomes two research chairs specialized in artificial intelligence applied to health.

With increasing public awareness of crises associated with degraded environments and mounting pressure to act, governments worldwide have begun to examine environmentally sustainable policies. However, there are many questions about whether enacting these policies will negatively affect economic growth. Now, a model created by researchers in Japan suggests that sustained GDP growth is possible even after spending to clean up pollution as it is created, providing hope that a zero-emission society...

A neighbouring titanium atom (right) reacts... view more  Credit: TU Delft/Scixel How materials behave depends on the interactions between countless atoms. You could see this as a giant group chat in which atoms are continuously exchanging quantum information. Researchers from Delft University of Technology in collaboration...

The farming of livestock to feed the global appetite for animal products greatly contributes to global warming. A new study however shows that emission intensity per unit of animal protein produced from the sector has decreased globally over the past two decades due to greater production efficiency, raising questions around the extent to which methane emissions will change in the future and how we can better manage their negative impacts.
