박새 건강, 숲의 나이에 달렸다

Jan 29, 2025 | popsci.co.kr | Ethan Freedman

벌목된 숲은 시간이 지나 묘목이 자라면서 예전의 모습을 되찾아간다. 수십 년이 흐르면 울창한 나무 그늘 아래 새들이 지저귀는 등 외견상으로는 본래의 숲과 다를 바 없어 보인다. 그러나 최근 연구에 따르면, 겉보기에는 회복된 듯해도 어린 숲은 새들에게 오래된 숲만큼 좋은 서식지가 되지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 라트비아 연구진은 100년 이상 된 자연림과 수령 40~50년 된 인공 소나무 숲을 비교했다. 이들은 각 숲에 서식하는 곤충의 양을 파악하기 위해 나무에서 떨어지는 곤충 배설물과 잔해(프래스)의 양을 측정했다. 또한, 유럽에 흔히 서식하는 박새의 혈액을 채취해 스트레스 수치를 확인하고, 염색체 말단에 위치한 DNA, 즉 텔로미어의 길이도 측정했다. 기존 연구에 따르면 텔로미어의 길이가 짧을수록 생존율이 낮아지는 경향을 보인다. 연구 결과, 어린 숲은 오래된 숲에 비해 곤충의 양이 적음을 시사하는 프래스 양이 적게 관찰되었다.

Can You Go Broke Eating Fruit? Published September 16, 2024 To know a truly elite piece of produce is to love it. Who among us doesn’t remember that singular box of berries, that perfect tomato, the mango that lingers in the recesses of our taste buds, the one we hope every subsequent experience might replicate? Maybe this time, we think, as we rifle through the bin at the grocery store, we’ll hit the jackpot again.

Foki kartografki

Ludzie od tysięcy lat przemierzają oceany, których dna wciąż w większości pozostają dla nas tajemnicą. Tylko jedna czwarta została do tej pory skartowana z dużą dokładnością. Przeważnie na mapach oceanów są zaznaczone tylko przybliżone głębokości i często brak na nich całych podwodnych gór oraz kanionów. Dlatego grupa badaczy zatrudniła ekspertów od nurkowania w głębinach. To słonie morskie i foki Weddella. Ssaki morskie są już od pewnego czasu wykorzystywane do badania mórz antarktycznych.
People are selling a lot of spiders - and no one is keeping track

Dec 18, 2023 | aol.co.uk | Ethan Freedman

The world is awash in a global network of people buying and selling spiders and scorpions with very little regulation or monitoring, a new study has found. Researchers documented thousands of species of arachnids being sold on websites all over the planet, with many likely caught in the wild. The vast majority of these species are also overlooked by any international regulations on wildlife trade like the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
