Nweeia and a team of dentists and zoologists from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, Harvard and other research organizations recently took a very close look at the …

Here, we use X-ray CT scans to compare aspects of the endocranial and inner ear labyrinth anatomy of extant monodontids and use the overall morphology to draw larger inferences …

We hypothesize that the orientation of the biological nanostructure reflects the spiral macro -structure, which defines the mechanical properties. Using combined 2D and 3D imaging …

In this study, we used X-ray CT to describe cranial endocasts and inner ear labyrinths of monodontids, a small cetacean clade with two iconic extant members. This approach provides …

2009年1月1日 · Killer whales and polar bears are the only predators on narwhals. Narwhals are usually found in small groups of 5–10 whales, migrating together. The narwhal is the animal …

X-ray of part of the jaw of a caiman, a small type of crocodile found in Central and South America. The teeth have roots embedded in the jaw. Beneath most of the teeth, developing replacing …

The thesis is focused on studying the nanostructure of natural and synthetic hierarchical materials with biological applications, using X-ray scattering imaging and birefringence microscopy.

Using a highly stabilized thermal imaging camera and AI to filter out non-whale objects such as boats and birds, the system can detect whales and dolphins up to several kilometers away, …

2025年3月9日 · The narwhal, often called the “unicorn of the sea,” has long fascinated scientists with its spiral tusk. Traditionally believed to play a role in mating displays or competition, new …
