1,700 ancient viruses found in Tibetan glacier, reveal climate history and life adaptations.

Researchers have discovered over 1,700 ancient viruses in a Tibetan glacier, preserved in ice for thousands of years. By analyzing these glacial viruses, scientists can learn about Earth's climate history and how various life forms adapted to changing conditions. The study of these ancient viruses can contribute significantly to our understanding of climate change, its impact on life, and the adaptive mechanisms used by living organisms to survive and thrive in varying conditions.
