UCSB scientists probe sea floor venting to gain understanding of early life on Earth
New keys to understanding the evolution of life on Earth may be found in the microbes and minerals vented from below the ocean floor, say scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The UCSB scientists are making new contributions to this field of inquiry in their studies of seafloor hydrothermal fluid discharge into the Earth's oceans, which has been occurring ever since t...Falling ants glide back to trunk to avoid dangers of forest floor
An amazing variety of arboreal animals have learned to glide through the forest, from flying squirrels to flying lizards and frogs, and even ?frightening as it sounds ?snakes. Gliding ants ?the only wingless insects known to actively...Seafloor creatures destroyed by ice action during ice ages
The ice ages made massive changes to the Earth's landscape In the past it has been thought that these...UMaine teams with fishermen to study affects of trawling on seafloor ecology
Working in cooperation with Maine trawler captain Cameron McLellan and the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, UMaine graduate student Emily Knight and UMaine Marine Science professor Les Watling recently completed a long-term study that examines the effects of groundfish trawling on the complex ecology of the sea floor in the Gulf of Maine. Based on the gradual increases in complexity and d...Women may not seek help for pelvic floor disorders
A survey done by the Temple University School of Medicine reported that women who suffer from one or more // pelvic floor disorders often do not report their discomfort or seek medical help. The survey also reports that eventually when they do report to their medical practitioner the problem becomes often complicated and of urogynecological nature. Pelvic floor disorder is a range of d...Pregnancy and Mode of Delivery May Be A Cause For Pelvic Floor Disorders
Researchers have found sufficient evidence to prove the link between pregnancy, mode of delivery and pelvic floor disorder. It is stated that women who delivered vaginally// are the sufferers of pelvic disorders like incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse in contrast to those underwent Cesarean or never gave birth. Of the women in this study group who gave birth vaginally, 42 percent su...G 4.12 Powerful Ventilated Floor-Standing Centrifuge
