Abstract The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in scientific research is accelerating progress but also challenging core scientific norms such as accountability, transparency, and replicability. Large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT are revolutionizing scientific communication and problem‐solving, but they introduce complexities ...

Jupiter - Friend or Foe? IV: The influence of orbital eccentricity and inclination
For many years, it was assumed that Jupiter prevented the Earth from being subject to a punishing impact regime that would greatly hinder the development of life. Here, we present the 4th in a series of studies investigating this hypothesis.

The Once and Future Hydrology Is Whole Earth Hydrology
Abstract We here argue for a new paradigm to advance pursuit of truth in global freshwater science. Our proposed Whole Earth Hydrology is hydrology that is explicitly empirical and discovery‐based, grounded in primary data, detailed at scale, and incorporates humans as essential.

Rethinking “Prebiotic Chemistry”
Abstract In origins‐of‐life research, the term “prebiotic chemistry” is commonly used to describe processes thought to be related to or required for the emergence of life. However, it suffers from several potential drawbacks that have caused the present group of authors to rethink their usage of the term.
