Soils forming on the branches of trees are an overlooked forest habitat
A study on -canopy soils- on old trees in Costa Rica shows they are important habitats and carbon stores that cannot easily be replaced. In certain trees, soils can form along branches and can support varied plant and animal life. However, what conditions these 'canopy soils' form in, and what kind of biodiversity they support, has been difficult to study.

China’s oldest water pipes were a communal effort
A system of ancient ceramic water pipes, the oldest ever unearthed in China, shows that neolithic people were capable of complex engineering feats without the need for a centralised state authority, finds a new study by UCL researchers. In a study published in Nature Water , the archaeological team describe a network of ceramic water pipes and drainage ditches at the Chinese walled site of Pingliangtai dating back 4,000 years to a time known as the Longshan period.

Exterior displays on autonomous vehicles could keep cyclists safe
Digital displays on the exteriors of self-driving cars could help cyclists stay safe on the roads of the future, researchers say. Digital displays on the exteriors of self-driving cars could help cyclists stay safe on the roads of the future, researchers say. Animated representations of virtual drivers, traffic-light-like projections on to the road or even emojis displayed on their surfaces could allow autonomous vehicles to share advance warning of their movements with bike riders.

High level of heart attack protein linked to increased risk of death
A high level of troponin - a protein normally used to exclude the possibility of a heart attack in patients with chest pain - may signal a heightened risk of death from any cause within the next few years, even in the absence of known or suspected cardiovascular disease, according to the research published in the journal Heart.
