In a recent review published in the journal Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, researchers discussed the role of climatic shifts and vegetation changes in driving the evolution within the subfamily ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have demonstrated, through multi-agent simulations in a two-dimensional space, that the combination of environmental variability and human migration may foster the ...

Researchers have demonstrated that intensified environmental variability (EV) can promote the evolution of cooperation through simulation based on evolutionary game theory. This result offers a new ...

Environmental change doesn’t affect evolution in a single, predictable way. In large-scale computer simulations, scientists ...

A UCLA campus shutdown during COVID revealed rapid evolution in urban birds, as junco beaks shifted with the rise and fall of human food.

A composite view of the Earth constructed by NASA from multiple satellite images Editor at Large Human evolution is a story writ slow. It’s been about 3.8 billion years since life on Earth emerged and ...

What will humans be like generations from now in a world transformed by artificial intelligence (AI)? Plenty of thinkers have applied themselves to questions like this, considering how AI will alter ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Previous scholars have widely proposed that the emergence of advanced cognitive abilities and sociality in humans originated in Africa during the MSA. However, the specific mechanisms ...
