Ice-free period too long for Southern and Western Hudson Bay polar bear populations if global warming exceeds 1.6 to 2.6 °C
Hudson Bay has warmed over 1 °C in the last 30 years. Coincident with this warming, seasonal patterns have shifted, with the spring sea ice melting...

Seafloor roughness reduces melting of East Antarctic ice shelves
Heat delivered by the ocean circulation is melting the Antarctic ice sheet from below. This melt is largest where warm Circumpolar Deep Water...

U-Pb geochronology reveals that hydrothermal dolomitization was coeval to the deposition of the Burgess Shale lagerstätte
Fault-controlled, hydrothermal dolomitization often occurs at margins between shallow-water carbonate platforms and deep-water sedimentary basins. In...

Geodiversity of a European river network controls algal biodiversity and function
Biodiversity and functioning often follow spatial gradients, yet with unclear causal linkage. In spatially complex rivers, regional-scale factors...

Slab buckling as a driver for rapid oscillations in Indian plate motion and subduction rate
Plate tectonics is primarily driven by the constant gravitational pull of slabs where oceanic lithosphere sinks into the mantle at subduction zones....

An Ediacaran orogeny in subglacial East Antarctica is uncovered by detrital garnet geochronology
Detrital minerals provide valuable insights into the tectonic history of continents. Uranium-lead dating of detrital zircon is widely used to...

Skillful seasonal prediction of wind energy resources in the contiguous United States
A key challenge with the wind energy utilization is that winds, and thus wind power, are highly variable on seasonal to interannual timescales...

Nonuniform response of vegetation phenology to daytime and nighttime warming in urban areas
The phenological response of vegetation to changing climates requires exploration across environments, including urban areas with elevated daytime...
