Antarctica’s slow collapse caught on camera—and it’s accelerating #Antarctica

Antarctica’s slow collapse caught on camera—and it’s accelerating
Long-lost 1960s aerial photos let Copenhagen researchers watch Antarctica’s Wordie Ice Shelf crumble in slow motion. By fusing film with satellites, they discovered warm ocean water, not surface ponds, drives the destruction, and mapped “pinning points” that reveal how far a collapse has progressed. The work shows these break-ups unfold more gradually than feared, yet once the ice “brake” fails, land-based glaciers surge, setting up meters of future sea-level rise that will strike nor…

Reduced Efficiency in the Right Fronto-Parietal Attentional Network During Distractor Suppression in Mild Cognitive Impairment
Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a critical transitional stage between normal cognitive aging and dementia, making its early detection essential. This study investigates the neural mechanisms of distractor suppression in MCI patients using EEG and behavioral data during an attention-cueing Eriksen flanker task. A cohort of 56 MCIs and 26 healthy controls (HCs) performed tasks with congruent and incongruent stimuli of varying saliency levels. During these tasks, EEG data were analyzed for alph…

"While crop seed vaults are common around the world, nurseries for wild and native plants are rare, and many plant species quietly become extinct. This marks #Gurukula out as a Noah’s ark for endangered plant species."

"The primary vegetation around Gurukula Botanical Sanctuary is wet evergreen, medium elevation rainforest."
"Laly Joseph, the head of plant conservation at Gurukula Botanical Sanctuary, has spent most of her life learning about and caring for plants."
"An explosion of Alsophila spinulosa tree ferns, also known as flying spider-monkey tree fern. These are native species found in tropical and subtropical forests across Asia. An abundance of ferns can mean a healthy, high-quality habitat with minimal human disturbance."
