| Scientists say 'prelude' to the sixth mass extinction is happening right now Posted: 10 Jul 2017 12:20 PM PDT  When plant and animal species go extinct, it's usually a clear sign that humans have messed up. We've over-hunted, destroyed habitats, polluted waterways, and altered the climate by burning fossil fuels, wiping species off the planet for good. We tend to study extinctions to understand just how much we have disrupted the planet's ecosystems. But in a new scientific study published on Monday, scientists said we're not paying nearly enough attention to the "prelude" to global extinction — as in, the dwindling population sizes and ranges of existing species that can be a warning sign of a bigger extinction event to come. SEE ALSO: 800 wildlife species at risk from Trump's 'beautiful' border wall As with extinctions, these declines have serious consequences for the natural systems we all depend on for clean air and water, food, and shelter. "This is the case of a biological annihilation occurring globally, even if the species these populations belong to are still present somewhere on Earth," Rodolfo Dirzo, the study's co-author and a biology professor at the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, said in a press release. TROPICAL FOREST LOGGING HAS CONTRIBUTED TO POPULATION DECLINES IN MANY ANIMALS, INCLUDING THE BORNEAN GIBBON, KNOWN FOR ITS WHOOPING CALL.Image: GERARDO CEBALLOS/UNAMFor their analysis, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Dirzo and his colleagues mapped the ranges of 27,600 species of birds, amphibians, mammals, and reptiles worldwide. The sample represents nearly half of all known land-based vertebrate species. Scientists estimated that, of these species, nearly one-third of the vertebrates are declining in population size and range. Shrinking ranges mean animals — especially migratory species — have less room to hunt, breed, and hunker down. As ranges decline, population numbers also dwindle, pushing a species closer to the edge of extinction. Tropical regions saw the greatest number of decreasing species, particularly in south and southeast Asia. In Thailand and Myanmar, for instance, illegal hunting and logging of rosewood trees has drastically reduced the population of Indochinese tigers. Indonesia's Sumatran orangutan has lost roughly 60 percent of its habitat as farmers burn and drain swamp forests to produce palm oil. Temperate regions had similar or higher proportions of decreasing species compared to tropical regions, according to the study. A Kakapo flightless parrot seen in January 2011.Image: Shane McInnes/REX/ShutterstockDirzo and his co-authors also looked at 177 well-analyzed mammal species and examined population losses between 1990 and 2015. Within this group, all have lost 30 percent or more of their geographic ranges. Some had been hit especially hard: more than 40 percent of the species have lost over 80 percent of their ranges. "It is a prelude to the disappearance of many more species and the decline of natural systems that make civilization possible," Gerardo Ceballos, the study's lead author and an ecology professor at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, said in the press release. Monday's research adds to the broader scientific debate about the "sixth extinction" — which is likely happening to the planet right now, and might be the biggest mass extinction since the dinosaurs disappeared 66 million years ago. During Earth's 4.5-billion-year history, five major extinction events have wiped out nearly all the species on the planet, the geological record shows. Asteroid strikes, volcanic eruptions, and natural climate shifts were likely to blame for those past events. Asian giant softshell turtle.Image: YOEUNG SUN/WILDLIFE CONSERVATION SOCIETYHowever, this sixth mass die-off is largely due to human activities, such as population growth, habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change. In their paper, Dirzo, Ceballos, and Stanford professor Paul Ehrlich suggested that billions of animal populations that once roamed the Earth are gone. A separate 2016 study by World Wildlife Fund said global populations of vertebrates have declined by 58 percent between 1970 and 2012. The authors of Monday's paper said their research shows "Earth's sixth mass extinction has proceeded further than most assume." They added that the steep population declines amount to a "massive erosion of the greatest biological diversity" in Earth's history.

| Tesla Model 3 production gets underway Posted: 10 Jul 2017 01:23 AM PDT  Whether Tesla is about to change the face of the motor industry by making electric cars truly mainstream, or whether it's just a car company that's extremely good at creating publicity remains to be seen. What isn't in dispute though is the fact the first of its new affordable Model 3 electric cars has finally rolled off the production line, and images of this hugely significant event have been tweeted to the world by the company's CEO, Elon Musk. The Model 3 is the fourth vehicle to be launched by Tesla and the third that's now currently in production as it joins the considerably less affordable Model S and Model X. Model 3 sits below the Model S in the Tesla lineup and is designed to be a mass-market EV that fits into the price range where people are currently buying electric cars, and can represent an opportunity for more people to buy into the Tesla brand.

| Amelia Earhart mystery: Forensic dogs scent human remains on remote Pacific island Posted: 10 Jul 2017 01:32 AM PDT  Four dogs trained to detect the scent of human bones have located a site on a remote Pacific atoll where Amelia Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, may have died on their ill-fated attempt to circumnavigate the globe in 1937. The four border collies were taken to Nikumaroro, part of the Republic of Kiribati, as part of the latest expedition to the atoll by The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) and the National Geographic Society. TIGHAR believes Ms Earhart managed to land on Nikumaroro - which was at the time an uninhabited British territory known as Gardner Island - but soon succumbed to hunger, thirst or illness. Amelia Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, vanished on their ill-fated attempt to circumnavigate the globe in 1937. The Delaware-based organisation has carried out numerous visits to the island and discovered some compelling indications that Ms Earhart's Lockheed Electra landed there after being unable to find Howland Island, its intended target. That evidence included aluminium skin from an aircraft, plexiglass from a cockpit, a zip made in Pennsylvania in the mid-1930s, a broken pocket knife of the same brand that was listed in an inventory of Ms Earhart's aircraft and the remains of a 1930s woman's compact. Amelia Earhart - Jaluit Atoll The theory is supported by British colonial records in Fiji reporting the discovery of the partial skeleton of a castaway who perished shortly before the island was settled in 1938. The bones were found in the shade of a tree in a part of the island that fits the description of the encampment that TIGHAR has been excavating. The site is dotted with the remains of small fires on which meals of birds, fish, turtle and even rat were cooked. In an attempt to locate conclusive evidence, such as a bone or DNA, forensic dogs were brought to the island for the latest search, with all four dogs independently sitting at the bases of a tree at the castaways' site and locking eyes with their handler - the way they are taught to "alert" for the scent of human remains. Amelia Earhart, Fred Noonan Scientists say the dogs are able to detect the odour of human bones long after the bones have decomposed and subsequent excavation of the site did not recover human remains. Instead, archaeologists have recovered soil samples from different depths and will submit the samples to a laboratory in Germany that specialises in extracting DNA. Amelia Earhart final flight map Researchers told National Geographic magazine that DNA from Neanderthals has been extracted from soil in a cave in France, although "the odds of securing DNA from a tropical environment like Nikumaroro are very long". The TIGHAR expedition has coincided with the airing of a documentary on The History Channel in the US that claims a photo discovered in US archives proves that Ms Earhart and Mr Noonan were captured by the Japanese and transported to Jaluit in the Marshall Islands. The theory adds that they were both later executed. This 1937 photo shows Amelia Earhart before takeoff in Miami for an attempted round-the-world flight. Les Kinney, a long-time proponent of the theory that Ms Earhart and Mr Noonan were on a spying mission for the US government shortly before the outbreak of World War II, told the Associated Press the image shows Ms Earhart sitting on a sea wall with her back to the camera, Mr Noonan standing with a group of islanders and a Japanese survey ship identified as the Koshu towing a barge carrying the Electra. TIGHAR researchers say they have been aware of the photo for several years but have discounted it for a number of reasons. Documentary argues Amelia Earhart was captured by the Japanese military 02:47 The person identified as Ms Earhart in the grainy picture has hair much longer than when she took off on the final leg of her journey, they claim, while the image used to corroborate the suggestion that the man is Noonan has been horizontally reversed, meaning that his distinctive parting and hairline no longer match. TIGHAR also points out that the ship is too small to be the Koshu and that what Mr Kinney claims is the aircraft on a barge "is just an indistinct blob". It has also been pointed out that the photograph is marked as being taken in 1940, three years after Ms Earhart's disappearance. Profile | Amelia Earhart
