Sea-level rise: From global perspectives to local services
Read more of: Sea-level rise: From global perspectives to local servicesCoastal areas are highly diverse, ecologically rich, regions of key socio-economic activity, and are particularly sensitive to sea-level change. Over most of the 20th century, global mean sea level has […]

Polar soils exhibit distinct patterns in microbial diversity and dominant phylotypes
Read more of: Polar soils exhibit distinct patterns in microbial diversity and dominant phylotypesThe polar regions, comprising the Antarctic, Arctic and Tibetan Plateau, represent the most extreme environments on Earth. Soils across the polar regions harbor diverse microorganisms, which dominate the biogeochemical cycling. […]

Acceleration of electrons by whistler-mode hiss waves at Saturn
Read more of: Acceleration of electrons by whistler-mode hiss waves at SaturnPlasmaspheric hiss waves at the Earth are well known for causing losses of electrons from the radiation belts through wave particle interactions. At Saturn, however, we show that the different […]

Molecular responses to thermal and osmotic stress in Arctic intertidal mussels (Mytilus edulis): The limits of resilience
Read more of: Molecular responses to thermal and osmotic stress in Arctic intertidal mussels (Mytilus edulis): The limits of resilienceIncreases in Arctic temperatures have accelerated melting of the Greenland icesheet, exposing intertidal organisms, such as the blue mussel Mytilus edulis, to high air temperatures and low salinities in summer.

Spatial and sex differences in mercury contamination of skuas in the Southern Ocean
Read more of: Spatial and sex differences in mercury contamination of skuas in the Southern OceanAntarctic marine ecosystems are often considered to be pristine environments, yet wildlife in the polar regions may still be exposed to high levels of environmental contaminants. Here, we measured total […]

Cosmogenic radionuclides reveal an extreme solar particle storm near a solar minimum 9125 years BP
Read more of: Cosmogenic radionuclides reveal an extreme solar particle storm near a solar minimum 9125 years BPDuring solar storms, the Sun expels large amounts of energetic particles (SEP) that can react with the Earth’s atmospheric constituents and produce cosmogenic radionuclides such as 14C, 10Be and 36Cl.

Observing the disintegration of the A68A iceberg from space
Read more of: Observing the disintegration of the A68A iceberg from spaceIcebergs impact the physical and biological properties of the ocean where they drift, depending on the degree of melting. We use satellite imagery and altimetry to quantify the area, thickness, […]
