Increased risk: why coalitions with populists fail sooner

Politics

Populism is a political reality in many European countries - both on the right and on the left. A study now shows that coalition governments that include populist parties are often unstable. But it isn't the radicalism of the party that counts, rather it's the political style.

Potential new therapeutic target for a hard-to-treat form of leukaemia

Oxford researchers uncover a potential new therapeutic target for a hard-to-treat form of leukaemia Researchers at the University of Oxford have uncovered a potential new therapeutic target in a particularly aggressive and hard-to-treat form of leukaemia.

Why Do Submarine Canyons Form in Places Where the Seafloor Is Particularly Steep?

Earth Sciences

Researchers from Freie Universität Berlin and the University of Potsdam have published the results of a study indicating that the slope of the seafloor plays a crucial role in how submarine canyons are formed.

Curbing methane emissions thanks to targeted measurements

Environment

Romania is one of the EU's largest methane emitters from oil and gas production facilities, but emissions have fallen sharply thanks to targeted information on leaks. An international research team led by Empa has shown that measurements not only reveal actual emissions, but also prompt companies to take action.

How trace elements are recycled in the deep sea

Earth Sciences

Trace metals such as iron or zinc that are stored in deep-sea sediments are lost forever to phytoplankton on the ocean surface. This is what geochemists believed for a long time about the cycle of micronutrients in seawater. Now, researchers at ETH Zurich have discovered that this is not the case.
