Sunspots, which rotate around the sun's surface, tell us a great deal about our own planet. Scientists rely on them, for instance, to measure the sun's rotation or to prepare long-range forecasts of the Earth's health. http://www.physorg.com/news177169609.html Space & Earth Wed, 11 Nov 2009 14:50:01 EST news177169609 Two Penn State University researchers have carried out one of the first-ever analyses of the effects of global warming on endangered primates. This innovative work by Graduate Student Ruscena Wiederholt and Associate Professor of Biology Eric Post examined how El Niņo warming affected the abundance of four New World monkeys over decades. The research will be published on 28 October 2009 in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters. http://www.physorg.com/news175896415.html Biology Tue, 27 Oct 2009 22:00:01 EST news175896415 (PhysOrg.com) -- Tuesday is the wettest day of the week, suggests new analysis of rainfall data for Manchester. http://www.physorg.com/news175520195.html Space & Earth Fri, 23 Oct 2009 12:50:01 EST news175520195 US scientists on Thursday said that the El Nino warming trend of the Pacific Ocean waters has returned, bringing with it almost certain changes in weather patterns around the world. http://www.physorg.com/news166367335.html Space & Earth Thu, 09 Jul 2009 14:09:26 EST news166367335 Four papers in the journal Science this week offer new details about the history of water on Mars, gleaned from the 2008 NASA Phoenix Mars Mission that was operated from The University of Arizona. http://www.physorg.com/news165763856.html Space & Earth Thu, 02 Jul 2009 18:30:01 EST news165763856 (PhysOrg.com) -- Recognising objects and groups of objects is something we humans take for granted.
