HCN and C2H2 in the Atmosphere of a T8.5+T9 Brown Dwarf Binary

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
T-type brown dwarfs present an opportunity to explore atmospheres teeming with molecules such as H _2 O, CH _4 , and NH _3 , which exhibit a wealth of absorption features in the mid-infrared.

Taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia (Acanthaceae) in India

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia in India was undertaken through extensive field surveys and critical examination of herbarium specimens. Three taxa, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina subsp. marina, and Avicennia officinalis, are described in detail. A synonymic list was compiled using the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP)

Accretion signatures in the X-shooter spectrum of the substellar companion to SR12

open access: yes, 2017
About a dozen substellar companions orbiting young stellar objects or pre-main sequence stars at several hundred au have been identified in the last decade.

Matching habitat choice could be brightness‐based instead of hue‐based in green‐brown polymorphic grasshoppers

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Some prey species have evolved background matching, that is they resemble their surrounding environment in terms of colour and/or brightness. When prey populations inhabit patchy environments, they may even have evolved specialised phenotypes: each phenotype matching a specific subset of patches.

Medium-resolution 0.97–5.3 μm Spectra of Very Young Benchmark Brown Dwarfs with NIRSpec on Board the James Webb Space Telescope

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Spectra of young benchmark brown dwarfs with well-known ages are vital to characterize other brown dwarfs, for which ages are in general not known. These spectra are also crucial to test atmospheric models, which have the potential to provide detailed ...

Fates of the sub-stellar objects (FOSSO)

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Understanding the survival and orbital evolution of brown dwarf (BD) companions during the post-main-sequence (MS) evolution of their host stars has become increasingly important, especially following recent discoveries of substellar companions ...

The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

Physical Parameters and Properties of 20 Cold Brown Dwarfs in JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a comprehensive analysis of 20 T and Y dwarfs using spectroscopy from the Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) CLEAR/PRISM and Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) low-resolution spectrometer instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope.

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.

Young Brown Dwarfs in Orion

open access: yes, 2007
We have obtained optical spectra of 60 low-mass stars and brown dwarfs in Orion’s Trapezium cluster. Spectral types have been determined using a combination of narrowband indices derived from the spectra. 1. Observations Multi-object optical spectroscopy in the red region was carried out using TAURUS on the AAT and GMOS on Gemini-N on objects selected ...
