Climate change and increased groundwater pumping are likely to decrease the abundance of limu pālahalaha (Ulva sp.), a native and culturally important limu (native seaweed), and increase the habitat suitability of Hypnea musciformis, an invasive seaweed in coastal groundwater dependent ecosystems in Kona
Two spinner dolphins died from toxoplasmosis after becoming infected with the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, according to researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Health and Stranding Lab.
A journal article on engineering management by a University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa College of Engineering faculty member is approaching 190,000 downloads, the second highest among the 145,000 articles published in the American Society of Civil Engineers’ (ASCE) 35 journals.
For the first time, a tropical mass flowering of various tree species was viewed from space using satellite technology.
A new paper provides insights on one of the most important factors in the Southern Oceanic carbon cycle, the “biological pump,” where carbon is utilized by organisms at the surface and transferred to ocean depths, away from contact with the atmosphere
Co-authoring a research study is a significant milestone in any scholar’s academic career, but achieving this as an undergraduate student is an especially remarkable feat.
Resource managers and conservationists have been offered an innovative, new approach to selecting coral species for reef restoration
UC Riverside mouse study identifies key molecules that determine specificity of neural circuits
New technique makes apps perform better across devices while keeping costs about the same
Microbes multiply in heat, changing nectar, upsetting bees
The future of electronics will be based on novel kinds of materials. Sometimes, however, the naturally occurring topology of atoms makes it difficult for new physical effects to be created. To tackle this problem, researchers at the University of Zurich have now successfully designed superconductors one atom at a time, creating new states of matter.
