🚨Research alert 🚨
Alaska’s crystal clear rivers & streams are turning orange. The staining found at more than 75 sites could be the result of minerals exposed by thawing permafrost, research published in Nature Communications finds.

🚨🐄 research alert 🐄🚨
Not all cattle are the same when it comes to grazing.
Some wander, some stay close to water.
Knowing that could lead to better animal health & environmental conditions.🐄

Agave alert! A team of researchers at the #UCDavis Agave Center are studying agave genetics, virus susceptibility & other topics as more farmers in the Golden State are turning to the crop as a potential drought-tolerant option of the future.

🚨Research alert🚨
Some invasive plants can turn into ecological time bombs by staying dormant for centuries before rapidly expanding & wreaking havoc.
#UCDavis research published in @Nature Ecology & Evolution details this hidden threat.

X is mostly depressing nastiness these days, but this 🧵is amazing.
Happy Saturday!

Google can provide many answers.

#UCDavis is using it to track down invasive weeds.

Meet Google Weed View – a high-tech way to identify roadside weeds using Google Street View for a fraction of the cost, developed by @MBMesgaran.

Is trimming your cat’s nails a favorite pastime? We didn’t think so.
Learn how #UCDavis researchers are working with cats @SacramentoSPCA to remove the stress–for pets and humans–around this routine health need. *No one was scratched during this research. https://t.co/kjcDiqPbHE

Viruses in soil may not be as destructive to bacteria as once thought & could act like lawnmowers, culling older cells & giving space for new growth, according to new #UCDavis research from @jemersonmicro in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution. https://t.co/uAuJbI49zI
