Research to optimize aquaponics systems could inform a new era of urban food production.

Tiny nature-inspired cavities that trap air can stop liquids from sticking to surfaces without the need for coatings.

While drones scan beaches to assess plastic litter, microplastics are found in the digestive tracts of one in every six Red Sea fish.

Epigenetic mechanisms adjust gene expression in anemone symbiosis.

Triple-layered nanoarray electrode promises to boost battery performance and enhance other electrochemical processes.

Adding certain types of bacteria to soil could help protect plants against drought by activating a proton pump in root cells.

A low-cost method for collecting water from the atmosphere could be used to provide potable water to dry, inland regions.

A compound that binds to and inhibits a crucial receptor protein offers a new route for controlling a parasitic plant.

Maintaining a balance between rising sea levels and soil accumulation will rely on careful management of coastal regions.

Investigations of prey patterns fail to explain why whale sharks aggregate off the coast of Saudi Arabia.

Corals, even in the most far-flung locations, are being affected by climate change but fare better in marine protected areas.

Bacteria isolated from desert plants could provide the key to maintaining productive agriculture in arid regions.
