Pronounced ocean thermal variability triggered by synoptic forcing in the Eastern Eurasian Arctic
Rapid Arctic warming has diminished sea-ice cover, increasing ocean exposure to synoptic atmospheric forcing. Here we examine how such forcing redistributes ocean heat across seasons in the evolving marginal ice zone of the eastern Eurasian Arctic using ...

Styrene and its natural analogues: accumulation and sustainable production methods
Abstract Styrene, also known as vinyl benzene, is a colourless, highly volatile petrochemical that serves as a key monomer in the production of polystyrene and styrene‐butadiene rubber. Its industrial synthesis via the alkylation of benzene with ethylene relies on fossil fuels, requiring high temperatures and toxic catalysts that contribute to ...

The Swedish Arctic Fox Project: 40 years of research in ecology and conservation
The 4 central research themes in The Swedish Arctic Fox Project and key deliverables for practical conservation achieved over 4 decades. Abstract The scientific community widely recognizes the value of long‐term studies, especially those with individual‐level resolution; however, maintaining a consecutive data series is associated with multiple ...

Abstract Statistical analysis is a cornerstone of scientific research, yet young researchers in aquatic sciences often struggle when analyses begin without a clearly defined research question or a solid understanding of the data structure. This disconnect between data collection and analytical decision‐making recurrently drives unreliable findings ...

Ocean freshening near the end of the Mesozoic
Paleogeographic changes have significantly shaped ocean circulation and climate dynamics throughout Earth’s history. This study integrates geological proxies with climate simulations to assess how ocean gateway evolution influenced ocean salinity near ...

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Competition and soil conditions limit the growth of High Arctic non‐native plants
Non‐native vascular plant species in the High Arctic are currently restricted mainly to settlements and other anthropogenically disturbed areas. The reasons for this remain unclear, but climate or dispersal do not appear to be the main limiting factors. Instead, biotic interactions combined with soil conditions may play important roles.
