Exploring the Greenland shark’s secret to extreme longevity

EARTH
Greenland sharks are thought to have lifespans that can reach 400 years. University of Tokyo-led researchers have now sequenced the first chromosome-level genome of the Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus), revealing genetic adaptations linked to its extraordinary...

Earthquake rupture patterns reveal Mamara fault directs considerable seismic energy towards Istanbul

EARTHQUAKES
A new analysis of earthquake rupture directivity provides essential insights for seismic hazard and risk assessments in urban areas, particularly concerning the Main Marmara Fault near Istanbul in western Türkiye. Based on the correlation between rupture directivity...

Dinosaur tracks, made 140 million years ago, have been found for the first time in South Africa’s Western Cape

PALEONTOLOGY
Dinosaurs have captured people's imagination ever since their bones and teeth were first scientifically described in 1822 by geologist and paleontologist Gideon Mantell in England. Dinosaur bones have taught us a great deal about these animals from...

Weighing in on a Mars water debate: Analysis challenges previous findings

MARS
More than 3 billion years ago, Mars intermittently had liquid water on its surface. After the planet lost much of its atmosphere, however, surface water could no longer persist. The fate of Mars's water—whether it was...

Melanosome patterns in Mesozoic mammals suggest they had dark, uniformly dull fur coloring

PALEONTOLOGY
An international team of paleontologists, geoscientists and biologists has found via analysis of melanosome patterns in fossilized Mesozoic mammals, that they most likely had dark, uniformly dull fur coloring. In their paper published in the journal...
