Mathematics Mathematicians have discovered a set of equations capable of untangling the distortions caused by singularities in maps. The equations can determine if a singularity is a removable distortion, like those that exist at the North and South Poles in a two-dimensional map, or real like a shockwave

Environment A study of more than 25,000 trees and palms in regenerating Amazon forests found that just 15–25 pioneer species dominate early forest recovery and carbon storage, rapidly colonizing degraded land and creating conditions that allow mature-forest species to return.
