4. Genetic study of Neanderthal DNA reveals early split between humans and Neanderthals
   11-15-2006 · EurekAlert!
   In the most thorough study to date of the Neanderthal genome, scientists suggest an early human-Neanderthal split. The two species have a common ancestry, say the authors, but do not share much else after evolving their separate ways. The study, published in this week's issue of Science, also finds no evidence of genetic admixture between Neanderthals and humans.

8. A salinity study in the Mobile Delta region
   10-13-2006 · EurekAlert!
   The Mobile Bay Causeway, creating a barrier between the fresher waters of the Delta and the saltier waters of the Gulf of Mexico, may have created persistent low salinity conditions that local conservationists believe have provided refuge for an exotic species of submerged aquatic vegetation, the Eurasian Milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) to survive in during periods when salinity is high throughout this estuary.

10. Climate change was the cause of Neanderthal extinction in the Iberian Peninsula
    05-01-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Recent studies carried out in Gorham's cave, on Gibraltar, proved to be definitive for this work. Results show that the Neanderthal extinction could have been greatly determined by environmental and climate changes and not by competitiveness with modern humans. The research work was recently published in Quaternary Science Reviews journal.
