Cities tend to be both dryer and hotter than surrounding rural areas, which can help or harm urban residents depending on other regional factors. A new Yale study examines what it means for city dwellers in the humid Global South. Yale School of the Environment #Yale environment.yale.edu/news/article/h…

The erosion of the Appalachians could be driving fish biodiversity in the species-rich American SE. Research from Maya Stokes and curator Thomas Near sequenced the DNA of greenfin darter specimens in the collection to uncover this "speciation in action": news.yale.edu/2023/05/25/riv…

Climate change is not only driving up ocean temperatures, it is also stripping the seas of oxygen. Fish are already moving to new waters in search of oxygen, and scientists warn that future oxygen loss poses a grave threat to marine life. e360.yale.edu/features/as-oc…

New research suggests that if a major blackout coincided with a #heatwave in #Phoenix, around half of its population (nearly 800,000) would require emergency medical care for heat stroke or other heat-related medical issues: ow.ly/ezlI50Ox606 via The New York Times

‼️🔥 Smoke from Canadian wildfires has led to unhealthy air quality in much of the Northern U.S. 🔥‼️ Here are 6 steps you can take to stay safe when air quality is unhealthy ⬇️🧵

Curator Martha Muñoz introduced National Geographic to animal species that have evolved to tolerate extreme heat. Some are adapting more quickly, but few can keep up with climate change. All are “existing on borrowed time, and time is running out." nationalgeographic.com/animals/articl… @MunozLabYale

Curator Derek Briggs is searching for Earth's first animals. “What are the chances of finding fossils of the earliest, tiny, decay-prone animals in rocks > 600 MYO? Is [their] absence...simply a case of conditions that did not favor preservation?” news.yale.edu/2023/06/27/clu… Yale University

For centuries, paleontologists have had to rely on intuition re whether reconstructed joint poses "look right." Today in Nature Communications: we created a way to formalize & test that intuition, & discovered that articular surface interactions distinguish locomotor poses in dinosaurs 🧵

Thank you to all who attended and participated in our annual #YaleClimateDay event last week! We were happy to host six speakers from outside of Yale, as well as a poster session and photo contest with submissions from our graduate students and a few post-doctoral associates.
