    New 3D modelling techniques show that shark size follows a “two-thirds scaling law”, helping reshape understanding of biology. The law refers to the ratio between the surface area of an organism and its volume (or mass). It is a geometric formula which says that the surface area of the organism increases with the volume raised to the power of ⅔ (or 0.67). This is not just an interesting numerical or geometric relationship but relates directly to an organism’s metabolism.

    A new review brings together all the geological research that has been done on the ancient underwater continent known as Zealandia.

What is known about the ancient continent is largely based on onshore geological studies and offshore mapping.

    Normal matter makes up about a quarter of all the matter in the universe but it turns out that a good portion of it has been hiding from astronomers for decades. New research published in Nature Astronomy shows how astronomers have found this “missing” matter. Observations of the gravitational forces in galaxies were used to measure the amount of normal, or visible, matter. The rest is dark matter.

    A new study sheds light on unusual funerary practices of the Bronze Age Xiaohe culture which lived in what is today the Xinjiang region of China. Xiaohe burials included boat-shaped coffins, cattle remains, and grave markers resembling paddles and mooring posts. These funerary practices are unlike any of the other cultures in the surrounding areas. The Xiaohe culture lasted about from about 1950 to 1400 BCE along the rivers and oases of the Tarim Basin in the northwest of modern-day China.
