Checking out the Boundaries: Milestone in Lipidomics Achieved

During heavy rainfall, sewage systems are frequently overloaded, leading to untreated wastewater being discharged into surface waters. Modelling techniques used by researchers now show that the volume of such combined sewer overflows could more than triple as a result of climate change However, these studies also reveal that this increase could be avoided through the use of Blue-Green Infrastructure, such as infiltration basins, retention ponds, and porous pavements.

Materials researchers have created a new composite material that combines two incompatible properties: stiff yet with a high damping capacity.

By using a 3D printer like an iron, researchers can precisely control the color, shade, and texture of fabricated objects, using only one material.

A new study by University of Waterloo researchers found that international students who study in Canada don't see their skills underutilized once they join the Canadian labour market, a sign that signals the potential of the country's International Student Strategy to help boost economic growth.

Plants can extract even the smallest traces of the important nutrient potassium from the soil. A team led by Würzburg biophysicist Rainer Hedrich describes how they achieve this in 'Nature Communications'.

A University of Queensland-led study has failed to find any strong links between drinking coffee during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental difficulties in children, but researchers are advising expectant mothers to continue following medical guidelines of caffeine consumption.

An EPFL study has revealed the impact of five common personal care products when they're used in enclosed spaces. Surprisingly, when they come into contact with ozone, the products spark chemical reactions generating new air pollutants.

Researchers from the University of Twente (Netherlands) and Bayreuth Develop Microplastic-Free Encapsulation for Crop Protection Agents. They recently published their findings in the scientific journal Advanced Materials

Light pollution is more serious than expected: Moths not only lose their orientation directly under street lamps. Their flight behaviour is also disturbed outside the cone of light.

Machine learning-equipped camera systems can be an effective and low-cost flood defence tool, researchers show.
