Experiment resolves mystery about wind flows on Jupiter
Facts, beliefs, and identity: The seeds of science skepticism (As somebody who has spent more time in comments sections than is perhaps advisable, I'm always interested in even the whiff of a hint of a suggestion of a way to convince people of facts.)
A Fake News Vaccine? Climate Change Misinformation Can Be Fought With ‘Inoculation,’ Scientists Say
Shifting diets in Bronze Age China point to gender inequality
Viruses overheard talking to one another
The world's cities: vital, but fragile
Insects engage in the largest continental migration on Earth, new research indicates. Some 3.5 trillion insects in Southern Britain alone migrate each year – a biomass eight times that of bird migration. The researchers fear that global warming may significantly increase the number of insects, potentially affecting various ecosystems in different parts of the world
Earth’s last major warm period was as hot as today
