منبر البحوث المتخصصة والدراسات العلمية  يشاهده  23456 زائر PosterSince the dawn of the space age, unmanned spacecraft have flownblind with little or no ability to make autonomous decisions based onthe content of the data they collect. The Autonomous SciencecraftExperiment (ASE) is operating onboard the Earth Observing-1mission since 2003.The ASE software uses onboard continuous planning, robust task andgoal-based execution, and onboard machine learning...

MOTHS CLOAKED IN COLOR

Reexamination of Parallel Evolution in Diurnal Neotropical Moths Appears in Bulletin of The American Museum of Natural History
Travelers to the neotropics—the tropical lands of the Americas—might be forgiven for thinking that all of the colorful insects flittering over sunny puddles or among dense forest understory are butterflies. In fact, many are not. Some are moths that have reinvented themselves as butterflies, converging on the daytime niche typically dominated by their less hairy relatives. Now, a new...

BARCODING ENDANGERED SEA TURTLES

Demonstrating that Short Genetic Sequences Identify Migratory Marine Species
Conservation geneticists who study sea turtles have a new tool to help track this highly migratory and endangered group of marine animals: DNA barcodes. DNA barcodes are short genetic sequences that efficiently distinguish species from each other–even if the samples from which the DNA is extracted are minute or degraded. Now, a recently published research paper by scientists from the American Museum of Natural History and the University...

GETTING A LEG UP ON WHALE AND DOLPHIN EVOLUTION
NEW COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS SHEDS LIGHT ON THE ORIGIN OF CETACEANS
When the ancestors of living cetaceans—whales, dolphins and porpoises—first dipped their toes into water, a series of evolutionary changes were sparked that ultimately nestled these swimming mammals into the larger hoofed animal group. But what happened first, a change from a plant-based diet to a carnivorous diet, or the loss of their ability to walk? A new paper published this week in PLoS One resolves this debate using a massive...

BIZARRE NEW HORNED TYRANNOSAUR FROM ASIA DESCRIBED
CARNIVOROUS BUT SMALLER T. REX RELATIVE SHARED ENVIRONMENT WITH LARGER COUSINS
Now, just a few weeks after tiny, early Raptorex kriegsteini was unveiled, a new wrench has been thrown into the family tree of the tyrannosaurs. The new Alioramus altai — a horned, long-snouted, gracile cousin of Tyrannosaurus rex — shared the same environment with larger, predatory relatives. A paper published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences describes this exceptionally...

DIRTY STARS MAKE GOOD SOLAR SYSTEM HOSTS

TIPPING POINT IN PLANET FORMATION FOUND BY NEW SIMULATIONS
Some stars are lonely behemoths, with no surrounding planets or asteroids, while others sport a skirt of attendant planetary bodies. New research published this week in The Astrophysical Journal Letters explains why the composition of the stars often indicates whether their light shines into deep space, or whether a small fraction shines onto orbiting planets. When a star forms, collapsing from a dense cloud into a luminous ball, it...

A FAINT STAR ORBITING THE BIG DIPPER'S ALCOR DISCOVERED

PROJECT 1640 SEES THE UNKNOWN USING A NOVEL TECHNIQUE KNOWN TO GALILEO
Next time you spy the Big Dipper, keep in mind that there is another star, invisible to the unaided eye, contributing to this constellation. According to a new paper soon to be published in The Astrophysical Journal, one of the stars that makes the bend in the ladle's handle, Alcor, has a smaller red dwarf companion. Newly discovered Alcor B orbits its larger sibling and was caught in the act with an innovative...

LATE-SURVIVING MEGAFAUNA EXPOSED BY ANCIENT DNA IN FROZEN SOIL

EXTINCT MAMMOTH AND HORSE LINGERED THOUSANDS OF YEARS LONGER THAN EXPECTED
Extinct woolly mammoths and ancient American horses may have been grazing the North American steppe for several thousand years longer than previously thought. After plucking ancient DNA from frozen soil in central Alaska, a team of researchers used cutting-edge techniques to uncover "genetic fossils" of both species locked in permafrost samples dated to between 7,600 and 10,500 calendar years. This...

HOW EARTH SURVIVED BIRTH
NEW SIMULATION PRESENTED AT ASTRONOMY MEETING
REVEALS PLANET MIGRATION PREVENTS PLUNGE INTO SUN
For the last 20 years, the best models of planet formation—or how planets grow from dust in a gas disk—have contradicted the very existence of Earth. These models assumed locally constant temperatures within a disk, and the planets plunge into the Sun. Now, new simulations from researchers at the American Museum of Natural History and the University of Cambridge show that variations in temperature can lead to regions of outward...

GRIZZLY BEARS MOVE INTO POLAR BEAR HABITAT IN MANITOBA, CANADA

COMPETITION FROM OTHER BEARS MAY THREATEN A POLAR BEAR POPULATION
Biologists affiliated with the American Museum of Natural History and City College of the City University of New York have found that grizzly bears are roaming into what was traditionally thought of as polar bear habitat—and into the Canadian province of Manitoba, where they are officially listed as extirpated. The preliminary data was recently published in Canadian Field Naturalist and shows that sightings...

PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF MEXICAN CAVE SCORPIONS SUGGESTS
ADAPTATION TO CAVES IS REVERSIBLE

NEW EVIDENCE THAT SPECIALIZED ADAPTATIONS ARE NOT EVOLUTIONARY DEAD ENDS
Blind scorpions that live in the stygian depths of caves are throwing light on a long-held assumption that specialized adaptations are irreversible evolutionary dead-ends. According to a new phylogenetic analysis of the family Typhlochactidae, scorpions currently living closer to the surface (under stones and in leaf litter) evolved independently on more than one occasion from...

SIMULATIONS SOLVE A 20-YEAR-OLD RIDDLE ABOUT
WHY NEBULAE AROUND MASSSIVE STARS DON'T DISAPPEAR

NEBULAE AROUND STARS WITH GIRTH FLICKER LIKE CANDLES
The birth of the most massive stars—those ten to a hundred times the mass of the Sun—has posed an astrophysical riddle for decades. Massive stars are dense enough to fuse hydrogen while they're still gathering material from the gas cloud, so it was a mystery why their brilliant radiation does not heat the infalling gas and blow it away. New simulations by researchers affiliated with the University...

THE NEW T. REX: A LEECH WITH AN AFFINITY FOR NOSES

NEW GENUS AND SPECIES OF LEECH DISCOVERED BY DOCTORS IN AMAZONIAN PERÚ
The new T. rex has ferociously large teeth lining a single jaw. But its length is less than 2 inches. Tyrannobdella rex, which means tyrant leech king, is a new species of blood sucker that lives in the remote parts of the Upper Amazon. Although its regular host remains unknown, it was discovered three years ago in Perú when a 44.5 millimeter leech was plucked from the nose of a girl who had recently been bathing...

MERCURY IS HIGHER IN SOME TUNA SPECIES
ACCORDING TO DNA BARCODING

NEW RESEARCH PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO HEALTHIER CONSUMPTION OF SUSHI
New research showing that that mercury levels are higher in some species of tuna could help consumers minimize their consumption of the silvery metal in their sushi and provide a powerful new tool for regulatory organizations. The new research—combining DNA barcoding at the American Museum of Natural History with analysis of mercury content at Rutgers University—is published in Biology Letters early...
