Bipolar ice-core records constrain possible dates and global radiative forcing following the ∼74 ka Toba eruption
Read more of: Bipolar ice-core records constrain possible dates and global radiative forcing following the ∼74 ka Toba eruptionThe Younger Toba Tuff eruption ∼74 ka ago in Indonesia, is among the largest known supereruptions in the Quaternary and its potential impact on the climate system and human evolution […]

Chapter 4: Underwater with a Hand Lens: Ecological Sciences and Environmental Ethics to Value Freshwater Biodiversity
Read more of: Chapter 4: Underwater with a Hand Lens: Ecological Sciences and Environmental Ethics to Value Freshwater BiodiversityDespite their impressive diversity and ecosystem relevance, insects are undervalued and rarely considered in conservation efforts, except for those that are medically or economically important. In terms of funding and […]

Bioluminescence in cephalopods: biodiversity, biogeography and research trends
Read more of: Bioluminescence in cephalopods: biodiversity, biogeography and research trendsNumerous terrestrial and marine organisms, including cephalopods, are capable of light emission. In addition to communication, bioluminescence is used for attraction and defense mechanisms. The present review aims to: (i) […]

Potential macroalgal expansion and blue carbon gains with northern Antarctic Peninsula glacial retreat
Read more of: Potential macroalgal expansion and blue carbon gains with northern Antarctic Peninsula glacial retreatThe West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a hotspot of physical climate change, especially glacial retreat, particularly in its northern South Shetland Islands (SSI) region. Along coastlines, this process is opening […]

Snow Loss Into Leads in Arctic Sea Ice: Minimal in Typical Wintertime Conditions, but High During a Warm and Windy Snowfall Event
Read more of: Snow Loss Into Leads in Arctic Sea Ice: Minimal in Typical Wintertime Conditions, but High During a Warm and Windy Snowfall EventThe amount of snow on Arctic sea ice impacts the ice mass budget. Wind redistribution of snow into open water in leads is hypothesized to cause significant wintertime snow loss. […]

Satellite image survey of beluga whales in the southern Kara Sea
Read more of: Satellite image survey of beluga whales in the southern Kara SeaThe use of satellite imagery to find, count and monitor whales in remote and hard to access areas has shown some promise, but few satellite studies have, as yet, provided […]

Insights into glacial processes from micromorphology of silt-sized sediment
Read more of: Insights into glacial processes from micromorphology of silt-sized sedimentSilt-rich meltwater plume deposits (MPDs) analyzed from marine sediment cores have elucidated relationships that are clearly connected, yet difficult to constrain, between subglacial hydrology, ice-marginal landforms, and grounding-zone retreat patterns […]
