Oxygen isotopic evidence for accretion of Earth’s water before a high-energy Moon-forming giant impact
Read more of: Oxygen isotopic evidence for accretion of Earth’s water before a high-energy Moon-forming giant impactThe Earth-Moon system likely formed as a result of a collision between two large planetary objects. Debate about their relative masses, the impact energy involved, and the extent of isotopic […]

Differential Geometry of Ice Flow
Read more of: Differential Geometry of Ice FlowFlowlines on ice sheets and glaciers form complex patterns. To explore their role in ice routing and extend the language for studying such patterns, we develop a theory of flow […]

Distribution and ecology of the four Macrourus species by‐caught in the longline fishery at South Georgia, Southern Ocean
Read more of: Distribution and ecology of the four Macrourus species by‐caught in the longline fishery at South Georgia, Southern OceanAlthough Macrourus species are the main by‐catch across Southern Ocean longline fisheries, including around South Georgia, the lack of species‐specific data has hindered effective management and ecological understanding. Aggregation of […]

Competing Effects of Elevated Vertical Mixing and Increased Freshwater Input on the Stratification and Sea Ice Cover in a Changing Arctic Ocean
Read more of: Competing Effects of Elevated Vertical Mixing and Increased Freshwater Input on the Stratification and Sea Ice Cover in a Changing Arctic OceanThe Arctic Ocean is undergoing a period of rapid transition. Freshwater input is projected to increase, and the decline in Arctic sea ice is likely to drive periodic increases in […]
