However, the deadliest animal in the world is in fact the mosquito! While “mosquito” means “little fly” and may sound harmless, mosquitoes can actually transmit devastating diseases to humans, resulting in over 600,000 deaths worldwide every year. This is almost as high as the number of deaths from cancer, the second leading cause of death in the United States. Mosquitoes are found all over the world and, chances are, you have encountered them (and their itchy bites!) yourself. Keep reading to learn more about these creatures, including how they live, the many types of mosquitoes that exist, and the dangerous diseases they can transmit to humans.","PeriodicalId":503754,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers for Young Minds","volume":"18 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139795539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fact, because the oceans are getting warmer, the Antarctic ice sheet melts faster, and therefore, the sea level is rising. However, predicting how the ice sheet will flow differently from place to place is complicated. The landscape beneath the ice sheet helps to control how fast the ice moves. For example, the ice can stick and deform, or slide smoothly across the land under the ice. Naturally occurring heat from inside the Earth can cause the base of the ice sheet to melt and soften so that it flows more easily, sliding on the meltwater formed. The amount of this geothermal heat varies across Antarctica and is difficult to measure. However, scientists with various expertise can collaborate to understand how much heat there is and how it shapes the ice sheet.","PeriodicalId":503754,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers for Young Minds","volume":"44 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139864292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use high-fidelity long-term memory to remember the details of our favorite stories and how to track which family member a green pair of socks belongs to. As we age, the ability to remember these details declines as the health of the brain changes. We created a virtual reality video game called Labyrinth-VR, with the aim to restore memory. When playing Labyrinth-VR, participants practice figuring out where they want to go using the shortest route to get there. In Labyrinth-VR, participants learned a virtual neighborhood and then had to find their way around to run errands. In our study, 49 older adults played either 12 h of Labyrinth-VR or 12 h of iPad games. The results of tests of high-fidelity long-term memory showed that playing Labyrinth-VR, but not iPad games, led to improvements in participants’ scores.","PeriodicalId":503754,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers for Young Minds","volume":"24 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139805279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drilling is a valuable tool to unravel secrets of the planet’s history because lots of information is safely stored deep below our feet within the Earth. By taking samples from deep in the Earth and performing laboratory tests on them, scientists find rock materials, water, bacteria, and fossils that can help to unravel mysteries of life and the environment over millions of years. Drilling is also important for finding sustainable new resources, such as geothermal heat, which can be used to produce energy for our homes. Drilling can also help us understand and protect our planet. Another important reason for drilling is to install specific instruments deep in the Earth, to monitor Earth’s movements. These instruments help us to better understand natural disasters like earthquakes or volcanic eruptions and can enhance the safety of billions of people worldwide.","PeriodicalId":503754,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers for Young Minds","volume":"72 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139863657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
