Perspective: It has been argued that parts of the climate system can experience rapid changes and that such tipping can be anticipated by early warning signals. Here the authors discuss the limitations of such indicators and common pitfalls in their application rdcu.be/ejQfr

Cicadas have little, bendy micro-pillars on their wings that pierce bacterial membranes and are as effective at killing microbes as a bleach solution. It might be possible to mimic this effect for use in medical (etc.) equipment. 🪳🪲🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

How is it possible that heat pumps can extract energy from the air even when it’s freezing cold outside? It’s because there’s energy in the air down to -273C which is absolute zero.
