When consumers search 'cyclospora,' bagged salad sales take the hitThis year, the U.S. saw its highest annual count of confirmed Cyclospora cases, roughly 20,000, according to the CDC. New research published in Risk Analysis examines outbreaks from 2018 to 2022 and finds that the retail losses…Ants prioritize brain energy during starvation, echoing pattern seen in humansThe human brain accounts for roughly 2% of total body weight but uses approximately 20% of our body's energy. Relative to our body size, human brains are much larger than those of other mammals and take a lot of energy to keep…New feed supplement addresses honey bee declines after blueberry pollinationWashington produces more blueberries than any other U.S. state, but farmers sometimes struggle to obtain honey bees to pollinate the plants and produce fruit.

At…Sound-levitated particles reveal how static charge builds upWhen two objects touch and then separate, they can swap tiny amounts of electric charge, even if they are made from exactly the same material. This 'triboelectric effect' is the source of everyday static electricity, but it is…Study finds heat waves speed snowmelt substantially, but rivers respond unevenlyA new study by researchers at Montana State University has found that heat waves substantially accelerate the melting rate of mountain snowpack; however, the resulting water doesn't necessarily produce an immediate increase in…This page holds the headline and a short snippet as published by Phys.org, whose feed they came from.
