Climate Models Underestimate Extreme Weather Risk to Britain
A new study reveals that errors in climate models have underestimated the North Atlantic Oscillation's (NAO) potential impact on Britain, predicting unprecedented levels of extreme weather—including floods and storms—by 2100 due to amplified effects of water vapor under high-emissions scenarios.

Oldest Western European Human Ancestor Fossil Found in Spain
A 1.1 to 1.4-million-year-old human ancestor face fragment, discovered in Spain's Atapuerca Mountains, is the oldest such fossil found in Western Europe, suggesting early human excursions into the region during the Early Pleistocene epoch, although evidence suggests any initial settlement was short-...

Microplastics Boost Antibiotic Resistance in E. coli Biofilms
A study found that microplastics significantly enhance the antibiotic resistance of E. coli biofilms, with E. coli grown on microplastics exhibiting faster growth, larger size, and dramatically increased resistance to four common antibiotics compared to those grown on glass beads, even after removal...
