Susan Bayh, the wife of former Indiana Gov. Evan Bayh, died on Friday after a prolonged battle with brain cancer. She was 61 years old.
The death of the former first lady of Indiana was announced in a statement issued by her family on Evan Bayh s Twitter page. Susan was a model of courage and resilience in the face of overwhelming adversity, the statement said. Throughout her 2-year, eight-month battle with cancer, she never once complained or expressed self-pity. Despite a multitude of hardships, she continued to display her exuberances, happiness, and love for others. Her fortitude was truly unbelievable and example for us all .
Scientists study relationship between trees, forest soil and their impact on environment ANI | Updated: Jan 31, 2021 16:49 IST
Washington [US], January 31 (ANI): A new research sheds light on the complex relationships between the types of trees, forest soil nutrients and microbes, and their impact on the environment.
The findings of the study were published in the journal Global Change Biology and Ecology Letters . Trees are often heralded as the heroes of environmental mitigation. They remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which slows the pace of climate change and sequester nutrients such as nitrogen, which improves water and air quality.
Not all tree species, however, perform these services similarly, and some of the strongest impacts that trees have on ecosystems occur below the surface, away from the eyes of observers. This complicates efforts to predict what will happen as tree species shift owing to pests, pathogens, and climat

Trees are often heralded as the heroes of environmental mitigation. They remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which slows the pace of climate change, and sequester nutrients such as nitrogen, which improves water and air quality.
Not all tree species, however, perform these services similarly, and some of the strongest impacts that trees have on ecosystems occur below the surface, away from the eyes of observers. This complicates efforts to predict what will happen as tree species shift owing to pests, pathogens, and climate change as well as to predict which species are most beneficial in reforestation efforts.
