which has a strong negative impact on the climate according to Dr Frans-Jan Parmentier. In addition to the changes on land the present study shows that there are a number of uncertainties surrounding the effects of the melting ice on the amount of greenhouse gases exchanged by the ocean through natural processes.
We know very little about how the shrinking sea ice cover disturbs the balance of greenhouse gases in the sea in the long term says Dr Parmentier.

The study led by Dr Vincent Gauci of The Open University and published in the journal New Phytologist may help to resolve an ongoing controversy about the origins of methane in the tropics.
In 2011 Sunitha Pangala a Phd student at The Open University who is supervised co by University of Bristol researcher Dr Ed Hornibrook spent several weeks in a forested peat swamp
Dr Gauci said: This work challenges current models of how forested wetlands exchange methane with the atmosphere.
Establishing whether tree-mediated emissions of methane are ubiquitous in tropical wetlands is now the focus of a new three-year Natural Environment Research Council grant to Dr Gauci

when cholera had been ravaging the capital Dr Wickstead explained. A garden on a site like this might tell us more about the people who lived
and the parched grass visible on modern satellite images also suggested its presence Dr Wickstead said.
That showed us it was a functional feature rather than decorative Dr Wickstead who lectures in heritage said.
We were excited very to find a fragment of flint that we believe is a chipping from the making of Neolithic tools Dr Wickstead who is also a pre-historian said.
I like to imagine one of those people could even be the engineer James Simpson who invented the capital's water filtration system Dr Wickstead said.
On closer inspection two had names of people on them Dr Wickstead said. We'd love to find out more about Derek Ellis
Students studying historic building conservation joined Dr Wickstead on the dig. Third year Crispin Thomas who is interested particularly in Medieval carpentry helped survey the ground with an auger--a drilling device that tests resistance to see how deep top soil is.
Dr Wickstead said that small green patches of land like that at Seething Wells were scattered all over London

Dr Grischa Perino suggests that some recommendations made by government agencies and environmental NGOS about how individuals can reduce GHG emissions are inappropriate in the European union because of its Emissions Trading System (EU ETS)
But in a new discussion paper by UEA's Centre for Behavioural and Experimental Social science Dr Perino says that once the EU ETS cap is in place installing energy efficient lightbulbs flying less
but it does not reduce greenhouse gas emissions said Dr Perino an environmental economist in the School of economics and member of the Centre for Social and Economic Research on the Global Environment (CSERGE) at UEA.
However Dr Perino says that while this scheme reduces greenhouse gas emissions it only does so
Dr Perino recommends that to reduce emissions in EU ETS sectors such as electricity production people should put pressure on politicians to reduce the cap of the EU ETS.
and established carbon footprint labels can increase total emissions said Dr Perino whose findings are based on a mathematical model of consumption choices.
cap and trade schemes limit green consumerism by Dr Grischa Perino will be published by the Centre for Behavioural and Experimental Social science on January 30.

The study was led by Dr Nicholas Brereton and Dr Michael Ray both from the Department of Life sciences at Imperial College London who worked with researchers at Rothamsted Research and the University of the Highlands and Islands'Agronomy Institute (at Orkney College UHI).
The study is published in the journal Biotechnology for Biofuels. Dr Brereton said: We've known for some time that environmental stresses can cause trees to naturally develop a slightly modified'reaction wood
and that it can be easier to release sugars from this wood. This is an important breakthrough our study now shows that natural genetic variations are responsible for these differences

Lead author Dr Claus-Dieter Hillenbrand from BAS says As snow and ice builds up on the vast Antarctic Ice Sheet the ice flows from the centre of the continent through glaciers towards the sea where it often forms floating ice shelves and eventually breaks off as icebergs.

Research published by Dr. Maguire in the journal Pediatrics in December found that drinking two cups of cow's milk per day was enough to maintain adequate Vitamin d levels in most children.
and then extrapolating the findings Dr à degaard explains. Greater diversity of flora means more speciesyet another interesting result of the study is that the number of arthropods can be determined based on the number of plants living in the forest.
According to Dr à degaard the most important argument is that the human race is entirely dependent on diversity in nature.
ZSL's Dr Nathalie Pettorelli senior author of the paper says: Our results indicate a rapidly retreating coastline that cannot be accounted for by the regular dynamics of the Sundarbans.
Dr. Michelle Epstein the lead researcher said We observed that the immune response in mice was the same no matter
These results demonstrate that Î AI transgenic peas are no more allergenic than beans or non-transgenic peas in mice Dr. Epstein added.
because it illustrates the significance of repeating experiments in independent laboratories Dr. Epstein said. It is also vital that investigators are aware of potential unexpected crossreactive allergic responses upon the consumption of plant products as we found in the non-transgenic peas.
Dr. Epstein questions the utility of rodents for evaluating biotech crops and points out that the MUV results highlight the importance of a careful case-by-case evaluation of GM CROPS

Initially doctors didn't realize Aspen's 6 hour and 20 minute surgery on June 29 would make history as the smallest liver-kidney transplant on record.
But recently physicians received confirmation of the historic moment which took place when Aspen was 16-months-old.
The U. gives patients important access to doctors from specific specialties who are able to come together to focus on the specific needs of a patient said Kim and his colleague Jeff Campsen M d. Surgical Director of Pancreas Transplantation.

Before the start of the trial the patients'caregivers and physicians filled out three standard behavioral assessments:

Working with the Western Heads East organization Dr. Reid had established already a network of community kitchens in Mwanza Tanzania to produce a probiotic yogurt for the local population.
This is important as reduction in these compounds in the mothers could presumably decrease negative developmental effects in their fetus and newborns according to Dr. Reid.

#Flying doctor bees to prevent cherry diseaseuniversity of Adelaide researchers are introducing a method to use bees to deliver disease control to cherry blossom preventing brown rot in cherries.
and bee researcher Dr Katja Hogendoorn postdoctoral research associate with the University's School of Agriculture Food and Wine.
The'flying doctors'technology is used successfully in Europe to control strawberry grey mould but it's the first time for Australia
and the first time in cherry orchards anywhere Dr Hogendoorn says. Dr Hogendoorn says the use of bees has many environmental and economic benefits compared to spraying fungicide.
The bees deliver control on target every day she says. There is no spray drift or run off into the environment less use of heavy equipment water labour and fuel.
Dr Hogendoorn says adoption of the technique will have the additional benefit of building up the honey bee industry
With increasing availability of suitable biological control agents future application of the'flying doctors'technology is expected to become available for disease control in almonds grapes strawberry raspberry apple pear

and leopards in their natural environment Dr Askew said. He filmed the take-offs of birds carrying full plumage in 3d
To his surprise Dr Askew found there was no significant difference. Dr Askew observed the position of each bird's centre of mass their wing motions
and the movement of the train in take off and then calculated the amount of power used by the birds to accelerate
and so not finding a detectable effect was a bit surprising Dr Askew said. These birds do not seem to be making quite the sacrifices to look attractive we thought they were.
Dr Askew also looked at how much drag the train created during take off by mounting a detached train in a wind tunnel.
Dr Askew pointed out that the feathers might adversely affect flight stability and the birds'ability to run.
