EurekAlert!Climate change and prehistoric human populations: Eastward shift of settlement areas at the end of the last ice ageAn archaeological study of human settlement during the Final Palaeolithic revealed that populations in Europe did not decrease homogenously during the last cold phase of the Ice Age. Significant variation in regional population sizes indicate differentiated reactions nested in an overall shift of settlement areas towards the east / publication in PLOS One

It is a tool that produces results and has good/useful uses. It should improve our lives, not make us dumber, lazier and be the sole source of knowledge/"creation"

When #marine animals ingest #DomoicAcid, they endure severe neurological symptoms such as seizures, disorientation, &, ultimately, death. These incidents often necessitate euthanasia due to the high mortality rates associated w/this toxin. This alarming rise in domoic acid poisoning cases not only threatens individual #MarineSpecies but also highlights the broader impacts #humans have on marine #ecosystems.
When Maria Branyas died in August 2024, she was 117 years and 168 days old – officially the world’s oldest living person at the time. So, how did she do it? A team from the Josep Carreras Leukemia Research Institute in Spain conducted a comprehensive analysis on everything from her genes to her proteins to her microbiome to her metabolism. @ScienceAlert shares what they found:
