Nature World News: Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently discovered that the cacao tree is much older than previously thought and may have close relatives capable of sustaining demand, according to a news release. "Studies of the evolutionary history of economically important groups are vital to develop agricultural industries, and demonstrate the importance of conserving biodiversity to contribute towards sustainable development. Here we show for the first time that the source of chocolate, Theobroma cacao,...

Associated Press: Gulf coral damage from the massive BP oil spill is more extensive than previously thought, according to a new study that revealed sick and dying corals in the rich, deep-water environment off the coasts of Alabama and Mississippi known as the Pinnacles. Using remotely operated submarines, researchers explored the Pinnacle Reef in September 2011 and found more than 400 coral colonies were injured. Corals -- such as sea whips, sea fans and black corals -- were covered in a scum of dead tissues and...

Evaporation takes place differently previously thought: Implications global warming
2015-10-22 21:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The process of evaporation, one of the most widespread on our planet, takes place differently than we once thought -- this has been shown by new computer simulations carried out at the Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. The discovery has far-reaching consequences for, among others, current global climate models, where a key role is played by evaporation of the oceans. They all evaporate: oceans and seas, microdroplets of fuel in engines and the sweat on...
