TEHRAN (ANA)- Birds living in stressful environments will push their fruit-eating abilities to the limit and up their calorie intake by eating the largest possible fruits that can easily fit in their beaks, new international research said.

TEHRAN (ANA)- A new study by researchers at the University of Texas at Arlington, the University of Nevada, Reno, and Virginia Tech reveals that climate change has led to reduced pollen production in plants and less pollen diversity, potentially threatening food production.

TEHRAN (ANA)- A 2023 study documented unprecedented cold spells in Antarctica, contrasting sharply with global heat records and underscoring the complexity of climate patterns.

TEHRAN (ANA)- June 2024 marks the 12th consecutive month of global temperatures reaching 1.5 degrees Celsius above the pre-industrial (1850-1900) level, according to the European Union's Copernicus Climate Change Service.
