The ‘Great Dying’ wiped out 90% of life, then came 5 million years of lethal heat. New fossils explain why UPenn ban on ...

Algae grown under Mars-like conditions could make bioplastic building materials for structures to harbor life in space.

The study, led by biologists at Harvard University, found that the slugs build sac-like structures known as kleptosomes out of their own cells in which the chloroplasts are stashed. The kleptosomes ...

A team of researchers is tapping into the ocean’s vast body of free-floating environmental DNA to catch blooms before they ...

Shell-rich rocks trace a mostly upward climb in ocean life, with each mass extinction slashing both diversity and biomass ...

Stanford study shows ocean biomass has risen over 540 million years, linking biodiversity to long-term ecosystem health.
