A paper in Nature reports the discovery of a new species of tyrannosauroid — the group of dinosaurs that includes Tyrannosaurus rex. This discovery sheds new light on the evolution of wider tyrannosaur species. go.nature.com/4jM0KVo #Paleosky 🧪

Watch the mathematics gender gap emerge. The school environment triggers a gender gap in mathematics. Line charts showing test results from all children in France who started school in 2018 reveal the trend. At the start of first year of school boys and girls similar on average with slightly more boys in highest and lowest percentiles. At the start of second year of school the gender gap becomes more exaggerated.

When do girls fall behind in maths? Gigantic study pinpoints the moment

Climatic differences among habitats shape the balance between maximum lifespan and life expectancy in Japanese tree species - Nature Ecology & Evolution Using Japanese forest census data, the authors define potential maximum lifespan and life expectancy for 53 tree species, finding that life expectancy is more sensitive to habitat-associated gradients...

🌳 How long do trees really live?
Our new study in Nature Ecology & Evolution reveals that Japanese trees can have a potential lifespan of ~400 years, but most live only ~80 years. Huge congrats to first author Yuta Kobayashi for this fascinating work! 🎉

Decomposing leaf mass into metabolic and structural components explains divergent patterns of trait variation within and among plant species - Oecologia Across the global flora, interspecific variation in photosynthetic and metabolic rates depends more strongly on leaf area than leaf mass. In contrast, intraspecific variation in these rates is strongl...
