Researchers at the University of Southampton have shown that an extinction event 360 million years ago, that killed much of the Earth's plant and freshwater aquatic life, was caused by a brief breakdown of the ozone layer that shields the Earth from damaging ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Earliest evidence of Italians' genetic diversity dates back to end of last glacial period. Genetic peculiarities contribute to reducing, on the one hand, the risk of kidney inflammation and skin cancers, and, on the other hand, the risk of diabetes and obesity, favouring sometimes a longer lifespan

Your dog's ice-cold nose may be a sensor for detecting heat at distance, new study shows. The rhinarium —the cold, wet, bare tip of a dog’s snout— is capable of sensing weak thermal radiation. This ability would conceivably help the carnivore to detect warm-blooded prey.
