El Niño is a natural climate phenomenon, typically lasting 9-12 months, that has been linked to crop failures, more frequent wildfires and concurrent droughts, increased flood risk, disruptions to fisheries, elevated civil conflict and increased disease risk in various regions. Present forecasts predict a 61% chance of El Niño emerging over May-July 2026 and persisting until at least

Researchers from Spain, Finland and Canada have shown for the first time that electric sparks can be guided using ultrasonic waves. In the study electric spark of 4 cm was guided around an obstacle using ultrasonic fields. (Image: Josu Irisarri) Electric sparks are used for welding, powering electronics, killing germs or for igniting the fuel in some car engines. Despit

Long before there were trees, the Earth was overrun by giant mushrooms. Fungi first showed up over a billion years ago as three-metre-tall fungus fingers that dominated the landscape, while plants have been around for a paltry 700 million years debuting as scruffy shrubs. A billion or so years on, the humble ‘shroom is an unlikely champion in the war against plastic waste thanks to the discovery
Researchers detected mysterious radio waves in Antarctica that seem to defy the rules of particle physics. Now they're searching for a cause. The Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna experiment uses 24 antennas attached to a NASA balloon to study neutrinos.
