Centennial mineral dust variability in high-resolution ice core data from Dome C, Antarctica
Read more of: Centennial mineral dust variability in high-resolution ice core data from Dome C, AntarcticaIce core data from Antarctica provide detailed insights into the characteristics of past climate, atmospheric circulation, as well as changes in the aerosol load of the atmosphere. We present high-resolution […]

The Martian and extraterrestrial uv radiation environment. Part II: Further considerations on materials and design criteria for artificial ecosystems
Read more of: The Martian and extraterrestrial uv radiation environment. Part II: Further considerations on materials and design criteria for artificial ecosystemsUltraviolet radiation is an important natural physical influence on organism function and ecosystem interactions. The UVradiation fluxes in extraterrestrial environments are substantially different from those experienced on Earth. On Mars, […]

Reducing uncertainty on the Grand Bank: tracking and vessel surveys indicate mortality risks for common murres in the North-West Atlantic
Read more of: Reducing uncertainty on the Grand Bank: tracking and vessel surveys indicate mortality risks for common murres in the North-West AtlanticSeabirds and other marine animals are at risk from anthropogenic activities that target them directly and those that can harm them incidentally. We integrate year-round tracking and vessel studies to […]
