UV-B radiation due to the depletion of ozone threatens plant life, potentially damaging ecosystems and dismantling food webs. Here, the impact of UV-B radiation on the physiology and morphology of Allum cepa, the common onion, was assessed. Mitosis vitality decreased, suggesting UV-B damage can influence the plant’s physiology.

The authors demonstrate computationally that two types of nanoplastics can bind to estrogen receptor beta and potentially disrupt endocrine systems.

The authors looked at the ability to use graphite from pencils in anodes of lithium-anode batteries.

The authors analyze differences in sports commentary between men's matches and women's matches during the 2023 US Open.

The authors assessed the atmospheric and oceanic parameters necessary for tidally-locked exoplanets to be habitable.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruption in social interactions. In this study, the authors tested if walking a dog will change human interactions and found that walking with a dog increased social interaction.

In this study, the authors send E. coli cultures to space via the Cubes in Space^TM program to determine if ultraviolet C and ionizing radiation negatively affect bacterial growth.

Climate change is one of the most controversial challenges humans face. Here the authors investigate the dual role of clouds - to reflect incoming light away from the Earth and to reflect heat energy back toward the Earth's surface. They find that the amount of incident light energy and surface temperature decreases as the sky becomes cloudier. These results will inform longer-term studies that may compare against the amount of energy clouds reflect back toward the Earth.

The authors compare neuroimaging datasets to identify potential new biomarkers for earlier detection of Alzheimer's disease.

The authors looked at how a student's own background influence their attitude towards integration of diverse cultures and ethnicities. While overall students viewed other groups positively, the authors found that groups still indicated they felt judged by their peers.
