Glacial geology of the Hudson Mountains, Amundsen Sea sector, West Antarctica
Read more of: Glacial geology of the Hudson Mountains, Amundsen Sea sector, West AntarcticaThe Hudson Mountains are situated in the eastern Amundsen Sea sector of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, adjacent to Pine Island Glacier. They form a volcanic field of 17 stratovolcanoes […]

Plasticity syndromes in wild vertebrates: Patterns and consequences of individual variation in plasticity across multiple behaviours
Read more of: Plasticity syndromes in wild vertebrates: Patterns and consequences of individual variation in plasticity across multiple behavioursBehavioural plasticity is an important mechanism allowing animals to cope with changing environments. Theory has hypothesized the existence of ‘plasticity syndromes’—positive correlations in plasticity across multiple behaviours within an individual—affording […]

Abrupt changes in biomass burning during the last glacial period
Read more of: Abrupt changes in biomass burning during the last glacial periodUnderstanding the causes of past atmospheric methane (CH4) variability is important for characterizing the relationship between CH4, global climate and terrestrial biogeochemical cycling. Ice core records of atmospheric CH4 contain […]

Stepwise Oligocene–Miocene breakdown of subpolar gyres and strengthening of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Read more of: Stepwise Oligocene–Miocene breakdown of subpolar gyres and strengthening of the Antarctic Circumpolar CurrentThrough the Cenozoic (66–0 Ma), the dominant mode of ocean surface circulation in the Southern Ocean transitioned from two large subpolar gyres to circumpolar circulation with a strong Antarctic Circumpolar Current […]

Microplastic hotspots mapped across the Southern Ocean reveal areas of potential ecological impact
Read more of: Microplastic hotspots mapped across the Southern Ocean reveal areas of potential ecological impactMarine microplastic is pervasive, polluting the remotest ecosystems including the Southern Ocean. Since this region is already undergoing climatic changes, the additional stress of microplastic pollution on the ecosystem should […]

The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean Version 5.0
Read more of: The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean Version 5.0Knowledge about seafloor depth, or bathymetry, is crucial for various marine activities, including scientific research, offshore industry, safety of navigation, and ocean exploration. Mapping the central Arctic Ocean is challenging […]

Iodine Speciation in Snow during the MOSAiC Expedition and its Implications for Arctic Iodine Emissions
Read more of: Iodine Speciation in Snow during the MOSAiC Expedition and its Implications for Arctic Iodine EmissionsPhotochemical release of iodine from snow has been suggested as a source of reactive iodine to the Arctic atmosphere, however understanding of the underlying mechanism and potential source strength is […]

Squid beaks as a proxy for mercury concentrations in muscle of the giant warty squid Moroteuthopsis longimana
Read more of: Squid beaks as a proxy for mercury concentrations in muscle of the giant warty squid Moroteuthopsis longimanaCephalopods play a major role in marine food webs as both predators and prey. Although most of the Hg in cephalopods is present in the muscle, most studies on its […]

Lessons from paleoclimates for recent and future climate change: opportunities and insights
Read more of: Lessons from paleoclimates for recent and future climate change: opportunities and insightsPaleoclimate information has played an instrumental role in showing how fast climate can vary and how large these changes can be. It provided the first vivid demonstration of the relationships […]

An Update to the Central England Temperature Series—HadCET v2.1
Read more of: An Update to the Central England Temperature Series—HadCET v2.1The Central England Temperature (CET) series is one of the longest instrumental climate records in the world. The CET record from 1659 represents a roughly triangular area of England extending […]

Adapting Ensemble‐Calibration Techniques to Probabilistic Solar‐Wind Forecasting
Read more of: Adapting Ensemble‐Calibration Techniques to Probabilistic Solar‐Wind ForecastingSolar-wind forecasting is critical for predicting events which can affect Earth’s technological systems. Typically, forecasts combine coronal model outputs with heliospheric models to predict near-Earth conditions. Ensemble forecasting generates sets […]
