So, even as the technology evolves, scientists will ensure there will always be something.
A mutant strain of cockroach that can outsmart the sugar traps used to kill them has evolved, scientists in the US have found.
To figure out how the gorge evolved, scientists took a look at the deepest sediments—some up to 800 meters drilled from several sites along the gorge.
To see whether our closest living relatives, chimpanzees, possess theory of mind — and perhaps learn how it evolved — scientists tested how well the apes could understand the goals of other chimps.
Current methods for identifying and protecting threatened species — like the so-called red list criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature, a conservation gold standard — do not yet adequately factor in the impact of probable climate shifts, and the science is still evolving, many scientists say.
The best available evidence suggests the amount of the gas in the air has not been this high for at least three million years, before humans evolved, and scientists believe the rise portends large changes in the climate and the level of the sea.
Do you agree with Mr. Siebert that we're attracted to zoos to feel our kinship and commonality with animals, but also to feel the "bittersweet blend of awe and loneliness we humans feel over being the only animal who can look back at all the others and capture them?" Many zoos, including the Bronx Zoo, have evolved as scientists learned more about animal behavior, psychology and needs.
Digital camera technology has rapidly evolved, and scientists now use these sensors to record flooding, volcanic, mass movement, and other events.
Although the idea of doing science in an abandoned gold mine was proposed nearly a decade ago, the project has evolved as scientists refined their plans.
The sharper, multilayered map will allow for more detailed comparisons between humans and other primates, shedding light on how our brains evolved, the scientists say.
