Every year, since 2010, the 29th of July is celebrated as the International Tiger Day to raise awareness about tiger conservation. India is home to over half of the world's tigers. New tiger populations are still being discovered, with one as recent as last year, in the Eastern Himalayas at altitudes of 3,630 metres. In 2010, India reportedly had 1,706 tigers, and this number increased to 2,226 in 2014. Isn't a 30% increase in population in just four years remarkable?

शोधकर्ताओं ने तुलना की है कि कैसे ग्रीक और भारतीय गणितज्ञों ने एक गोले का तल -क्षेत्रफल मापा
ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಭಾರತೀಯ ವಿಜ್ಞಾನ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಯ ಸಂಶೋಧಕರ ಒಂದು ತಂಡ ಪಶ್ಚಿಮ ಘಟ್ಟಗಳ ಹಾವುಗಳನ್ನು ಕ್ರಮಬದ್ಧವಾಗಿ ಅಧ್ಯಯನ ನಡೆಸಲು ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದರು. ಈ ಕ್ರಮಬದ್ಧ ಅಧ್ಯಯನ ನಡೆಸುವಾಗ ಪಶ್ಚಿಮ ಘಟ್ಟಗಳ ಕಾಡುಗಳಿಗೆ ಸ್ವಂತವಾದ “ಪ್ರೊಹೇಟುಲ್ಲಾ ಆಂಟಿಕಾ” ಎನ್ನುವ ಒಂದು ಬಳ್ಳಿಹಾವನ್ನು ಅಕಸ್ಮಾತಾಗಿ ಕಂಡರು. ಇದು ಒಂದು ಪುರಾತನ ಪ್ರಭೇದವೆಂದು, ಸುಮಾರು ೨೬ ಮಿಲಿಯನ್ ವರುಷಗಳ ಹಿಂದೆ, ಮಧ್ಯ ಒಲಿಗೋಸೀನ್ ಯುಗದಲ್ಲಿ ವಿಕಾಸನಗೊಂಡಿತೆಂದು ಅಂದಾಜಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ.

This article is the second part of the series ‘The How and the Why: Interpreting Scientific Studies’, brought to you by Research Matters. The series focuses on the method of scientific studies, including emphasising the importance of meta-analyses, the repercussions of the replication crisis and the inclusion of ethics in experimental biology. We hope this series will better enable our readers to understand and evaluate scientific research they are interested in and those that could impact their lives.
In a recent study, researchers at the Raman Research Institute, Bengaluru, have used a technique known as spin noise spectroscopy to probe the atomic, magnetic and sub-atomic properties of rubidium vapour.
The team of researchers, from the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru were attempting to study and classify snakes in the Western Ghats systematically. That's when they came across Proahaetulla antiqua, which is endemic to the southern Western Ghats. What's more interesting is that it is an ancient species, thought to have evolved around 26 million years ago during the mid-Oligocene.
Researchers from IISc, Bengaluru and IBM Research-India have developed a machine learning-based technique to manage the demand and supply of power in a network of microgrids while maximising profit. Since such local grids can run on renewable sources of energy instead of relying on fossil fuels, they also reduce carbon emissions and are sustainable.
शोधकर्ताओं ने चीन, जापान, दक्षिण कोरिया, सिंगापुर, ताइवान और भारत में धूम्रपान प्रवृत्तियों का अध्ययन किया।
Researchers from the Tata Trusts, Institute of Economic Growth, India and Harvard University, USA, have tried to understand how people's socio-economic status affect their food habits and the diversity of the food they eat.
