Earth: 15 Million Years Ago
In Einstein’s general relativity theory the metric component gxx in the direction of motion (x-direction) of the sun deviates from unity due to a tensor potential caused by the black hole existing around the center of the galaxy. Because the solar system is orbiting around the galactic center at 200 km/s, the theory shows that the Newtonian gravitational potential due to the sun is not quite ra...
متن کامل50 Million Announced Forty Years Ago 100 Million Mexicans… Only
1% in 2000. Although the objective was far from being reached (the current rate being close to 2%), in 2000 Mexico had 53 million inhabitants fewer than it would have had if fertility had remained at its 1970 level. The population pyramids of 1930, 1970 and 2000 clearly illustrate this dynamics (Figure 2). In 1930 the population was beginning to recover from the aftereffects of the Revolution a...
متن کاملLichen-like symbiosis 600 million years ago.
The fossil record of fungi and lichens is scarce. Here we report the discovery of lichen-like fossils, involving filamentous hyphae closely associated with coccoidal cyanobacteria or algae, preserved in marine phosphorite of the Doushantuo Formation (between 551 and 635 million years old) at Weng'an, South China. These fossils indicate that fungi developed symbiotic partnerships with photoautot...
متن کاملThe climate of the future: clues from three million years ago
James Hutton is generally regarded as the father of modern geology. In the eighteenth century he came up with a theory that revolutionized the science of geology: uniformitarianism, expressed by Charles Lyell as The present is a key to the past. This has enabled generations of geologists to interpret information gleaned from rocks and sediments by reference to examples existing in the modern ...
متن کاملA unique hominin menu dated to 1.95 million years ago.
R esearch on ancient foragers has tended to focus on their acquisition of large land mammals, but our ancestors in fact exploited a wider range of taxa. Depending on the local environment, this range included tortoises, birds, and hares from terrestrial habitats and mollusks, birds, and fish from aquatic habitats. These small terrestrial animals and aquatic species begin to appear occasionally ...
