The group catch up weekly to have a yarn, a drink, play games and fundraise for their community. “Rena, my daughter, she registered as an Old Bastard 27 years ago,” he says.

Biodiversity hotspots in southwestern Germany are losing their species richness

Climate change and shifts in land use are affecting habitats and, consequently, plant diversity. To better understand the consequences of these developments, long-term and comprehensive data are essential. The "Floristic Mapping of Baden-Württemberg," coordinated by the Stuttgart State Museum of Natural History, provides a foundation for this.

The way Earth's 'thermostat' works may have changed during Pangea era

The way Earth's 'thermostat' works may have changed during Pangea era Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Robert Egan Senior Editor Life arose on Earth at least 3.5 billion years ago, and our planet has remained habitable ever since—not too hot, not too cold. These life-sustaining conditions are possible in part thanks to a built-in, carbon cycle–based climate "thermostat" that controls the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. "There appears to be some kind of balance in what sustains the...

Identical vesicles, different behaviors: Model reveals how spontaneous asymmetry gives rise to lifelike behavior

Identical vesicles, different behaviors: Model reveals how spontaneous asymmetry gives rise to lifelike behavior Swati Mestri Scientific Editor Robert Egan Senior Editor In nonreciprocal active matter, agents act differently on each other, seemingly in violation of Newton's third law. This principle can result in various active matter traits, such as self-propulsion, molecular regulation and collective motion. A new model describes how such nonreciprocal interactions can emerge spontaneously...
