Fungicides intended to suppress turfgrass diseases may damage fairways
Golf course managers have much more insight into which fungicides to use to suppress turfgrass diseases, such as the common and costly dollar spot disease, without damaging the grass on their fairways, thanks to a Read More
Weather forecasting is not easy. The truth is that predicting future weather conditions over broad, or even narrow, swaths of Earth’s surface comes down to complex microphysical processes, and as College of Engineering Associate Read More
Astronomers investigate pulsar PSR J1930+1852 and its pulsar wind nebula
Using NuSTAR and XMM-Newton satellites, astronomers from New York University (NYU) Abu Dhabi have observed a pulsar known as PSR J1930+1852 and its pulsar wind nebula (PWN). Results of the observational campaign, published in The Read More
Ongoing research into the effect of environmental change on the buzzing of bees reveals that high temperatures and exposure to heavy metals reduces the frequency (and audible pitch) of non-flight wing vibrations, which could have Read More
A pointless fashion trend or something else? Chimpanzees wear blades
A team of researchers from Utrecht University, Durham University, and other institutions have observed something remarkable at a chimpanzee sanctuary in Zambia. Several chimpanzees from one particular group were seen dangling blades of grass from Read More
A study published in People and Nature finds that both sight and sound influence perception of biodiversity, and participants were slightly more accurate when assessing forest biodiversity through sound alone than through sight alone. Summary Read More
