Integrating satellite and socioeconomic data to improve climate change policy

Bangladesh is on track to lose all of its forestland in the next 35-40 years, leading to a rise in CO2 emissions and subsequent climate change, researchers said. However, that is just one of the significant land-use changes that the country is experiencing. A new study uses satellite and census data to quantify and unravel how physical and economic factors drive land-use changes. Understanding this relationship can inform climate policy at the national scale in Bangladesh and beyond.

New view on how tissues flow in the embryo

Watching and measuring what happens in tissues inside the human embryo is currently not possible, and it's difficult to do in mammalian models. Because humans and the fruit fly Drosophila share so many biological similarities, researchers tackled this problem by focusing on fruit flies. The team reports today that they can predict when the tissue will begin to rapidly flow just by looking at cell shapes in the tissue.

Study highlights risk of post-surgery complications in coronavirus patients

More than 50% of coronavirus patients who underwent surgery suffered from post-operative pulmonary complications, a new study suggests.Researchers say clinicians must carefully balance risk of complications linked to SARS-CoV-2 infection with risks of delaying surgery, and suggest the threshold for surgery should be raised compared to normal practice.In the study, published in The Lancet, post-operative pulmonary complications occurred in 51.2% of coronavirus patients who underwent surgery.These complications included conditions such as pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and/or unexpected postoperative ventilation.Among patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection who underwent surgery, 23.8% died within 30 days.Of those with pulmonary complications, 38%, 219/577 died within 30 days of their surgery.SARS-CoV-2 is a specific virus that can cause Covid-19.The study also identified factors associated with worse outcomes.As well as being male or aged 70 or older, patients with comorbidities and those undergoing…

Poor indoor ventilation may increase coronavirus spread: Study

According to the researchers, expiratory droplets from people who have coughed or sneezed contain water, salts, and other organic material, along with the virus itself. As the water content from the droplets evaporate, the microscopic matter becomes small and light enough to stay suspended in the air and over time, the concentration of the virus can build up, increasing the risk of infection.

Good government, he suggested, was about implementing what science and its derivatives, social science and the dismal science of economics, had shown to work. Technocratic solutions founded on science should, he implied, trump less tangible and more emotional phenomena such as optimism, the entrepreneurial spirit, and patriotism.

Skull found in dig for 16th century Irish lord who almost freed Ireland from the British

ARCHAEOLOGISTS IN Spain believe they may have found the remains of 16th century Irish chieftain Red Hugh O'Donnell. The team of archaeologists had entered the seventh day of the dig in the search for the nobleman when they made the discovery. Two coffins, a skull and a complete body were found at the excavation site in Constitution Street, Valladolid, where archaeologists had recently uncovered what they believe to be La Capilla de las Maravillas, the Chapel of Wonders, where Red was put to rest in 1602. Christopher Columbus was also buried at the site but his body later moved to Seville, leading some to believe the second coffin may originally have contained his body. Advertisement Carlos Burgos from the Hispono Irish Association with the remains discovered during the dig (DiadeVallodolid/Twitter) Red, who was known as Aodh Ruadh Ó Domnhnaill in Irish, was buried in the site after dying while waiting for the King of Spain to agree to send another Spanish Army to Ireland to help fight against the English.
