It’s not the first study on microplastics in Antarctica that researchers from the University of Basel and the Alfred-Wegener Institute (AWI) have conducted. However, data analysis from a spring 2021 expedition reveals that environmental pollution from these tiny plastic particles is a bigger problem in the remote Weddell Sea than was previously known.

The total of 17 seawater samples all indicated higher concentrations of microplastics than in previous studies. “The reason for this is the type of sampling we conducted,” says Clara Leistenschneider, doctoral candidate in the Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of Basel and lead author of the study.

The Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest is filled with the ear-piercing ‘screams’ of a tiny amphibian in distress, but until now, we humans have been oblivious to their cries.

For the first time, researchers have recorded South American frogs crying out at a frequency that totally bypasses the human ear – but which would be quite unpleasant to animals with the right kind of receivers.

The leaf litter frog (Haddadus binotatus) is the most abundant species of frog in the forest community. Though abundant, they’re tiny – the largest of the species are females, and even they that barely reach 64 millimeters (2.5 inches) in length.

While the idea of a mirror universe sounds like something from Marvel’s Doctor Strange, scientists now believe it could be real.

Physicists at Princeton University successfully visualize the 90-year-old Wigner Crystal theory. This could pave the way for future quantum discoveries.
