Rare 10 million-year-old fossil unearths new view of human evolution September 17, 2019
Near an old mining town in Central Europe, known for its picturesque turquoise-blue quarry water, lay Rudapithecus. For 10 million years, the fossilized ape waited in Rudabánya, Hungary, to add its story to the origins of how humans evolved.

Geochemists measure new composition of Earth's mantle September 16, 2019
Geochemists have investigated the volcanic rocks that build up the Portuguese island group of the Azores in order to gather new information about the compositional evolution of the Earth's interior. The results suggest that a larger amount of the Earth's mantle has melted and formed the Earth's crust than previously thought.
Why is Earth so biologically diverse? Mountains hold the answer September 12, 2019
Life on Earth is amazingly diverse, and exhibits striking geographical global patterns in biodiversity. A pair of companion papers reveal that mountain regions -- especially those in the tropics -- are hotspots of extraordinary and baffling richness. Although mountain regions cover only 25 percent of Earth's land area, they are home to more than 85 […]
Do animals control earth's oxygen level? September 10, 2019
For the first time, researchers have measured how the production of algae and the Earth's oxygen level affect each other -- what you might call 'Earth's heartbeat'. Studies of 540 million-year-old limestone indicate that it is not just the oxygen level that affects animals, but that animals can indeed regulate the oxygen level.

March of the Fossil Penguins post on Complete Penguin Genomes: https://t.co/VFZC8peq6E

Makes me feel old after aligning genes by eye for my dissertation. Back then a single human genome cost $300 million and took a decade. Today new species genomes are published every month.
