Farms with natural landscape features provide a refuge for bird populations Small farms with natural landscape features such as shade trees, hedgerows and tracts of intact forest provide a refuge for some tropical bird populations, according to an 18-year study in Costa Rica. For almost two decades, ornithologist James Zook has been collecting detailed records on nearly 430 tropical bird species found on small farms, plantations and undisturbed forests in the country. This photo provided by researchers shows a diversified farm in Finca, Coto Brus, Costa Rica. (Gretchen C. Daily via AP) While birds thrive the most in undisturbed rainforests, Zook said some species usually found in forests can establish populations in “diversified farms” that partially mimic a natural forest env...

Venice to start charging visitors entry fee next year

Venice plans to experiment with an admission fee of 5 euros ($5.35) for day trippers next year to try to manage the flow of tourists drawn to its historic canals, the city council said on Tuesday. The fee will be applied on a trial basis on 30 days next year, focusing mainly on spring bank holidays and summer weekends when tourism numbers are at their peak. All visitors over the age of 14 will have to pay it. The aim was to find "a new balance between the rights of those who live, study or work in Venice and those who visit the city," Venice tourism councillor Simone Venturini said. It is not a money-making move, he added, saying the fee would only cover the cost of administering the scheme.

A cave containing thousands of endangered Pacific Sheath-tailed bats has been discovered on Vanua Balavu, an island on the remote Lau archipelago in Fiji. It was previously thought the Pacific Sheath-tailed bat population numbered in the hundreds, but the joint expedition involving the University of Adelaide, the Australian Museum Research Institute, and Conservation International found an estimated 2,000–3,000 bats. University of Adelaide PhD candidate, Siteri Tikoca, said the Vanua Balavu discovery has important implications for conservation of the Pacific Sheath-tailed bats species. "Discoveries this striking for an endangered species are rare and present a more accurate foundation for conservation planning,” said Ms Tikoca. “They provide researchers with valuable infor...

Recent heat wave threatens severe glacier melt again in Switzerland

September 1, 2023769 Views

A top glacier watcher has warned that a warm early summer combined with a heat wave last week may have caused severe glacier melt in Switzerland, threatening to make 2023 its second-worst year for ice loss after a record thaw last year. Matthias Huss of the GLAMOS glacier monitoring center said full data won’t be in until late September and a precipitous drop in temperatures and high-altitude snowfall in recent days could help stem any more damage. But early signs based on readings from five sites and modeling results across Switzerland suggest considerable damage may already be done. “We can definitely say that we had very high melting in Switzerland and in Europe in general because the temperatures, they were extremely high for a long time — a more than one week heat wave,”...

Archaeologists find ‘mystery’ ducts near biblical Jerusalem relics

An almost three millennia-old network of hewn-rock ducts unearthed in Jerusalem has baffled archaeologists, given the lack of comparable biblical finds, or obvious links to an ancient Jewish temple and palace that once stood nearby. The knee-deep channels, dating back 2,800 years, are located outside Jerusalem's walled Old City. They stand in two clusters, which were discovered 10 metres (30 feet) apart. Forensic testing of the channels found no blood, the Israel Antiquities Authority said - potentially ruling out a role in animal slaughter for banquets or religious sacrifice. Remnants of an ancient channel network of hewn-rock ducts which the Israel Antiquities Authority says were in use around 2,800 years ago have baffled archaeologists who cannot ascertain their purpose given ...
