Weather Regime Diversity, Transitions, and Trends Using Hexagonal Self‐Organizing Maps
Abstract Persistent atmospheric circulation patterns, or weather regimes, strongly modulate surface weather and extremes, yet their internal diversity, transitions, and trends remain less understood for North America. We apply a self‐organizing map (SOM) framework to represent North American weather regimes using daily 500‐hPa geopotential height ...

Bibliography of Life: a freely accessible bibliography of every taxonomic paper ever published [PDF]
The underlying principle of the Bibliography of Life is to provide taxonomists and others with a freely accessible bibliography covering the whole of life. Such a bibliography had been achieved for specific study areas within taxonomy, but not for “life”

Ocean biodiversity informatics (OBI): Introduction
The computerised information age is providing new opportunities and challenges for marine science, ranging from electronic publication (Kinne 1999) to interoperable databases that provide access to primary data over the Internet. This Theme Section (TS) describes some of the activities in the field of ocean biodiversity informatics (OBI), whereby ...
