We’re using water cannons to spray seawater into the sky. This causes brighter, whiter clouds to form. These low marine clouds reflect sunlight away from the ocean’s surface, protecting ...
Our species, Homo sapiens, migrated out of Africa multiple times. They reached the Levant and Arabia between 130,000 and 70,000 years ago, as exemplified by human fossils and archaeological sites found at various locations. Little is known, however, about the pathways of these migrations. In a study published in Science Advances, we find the now ...
