Large scale features associated with strong frontogenesis in equivalent potential temperature in the South American subtropics east of the Andes [PDF]
Advances in Geosciences, 2009 South American subtropics east of the Andes exhibit a region of intense climatological frontogenesis in equivalent potential temperature (EPT) in the December to March season, mostly produced by deformation of the wind field. The goal of this paper is to

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Active restoration increases soil organic carbon stocks by reducing microbial nitrogen limitation. Nitrogen availability promotes particulate to mineral‐associated organic carbon conversion by reducing microbial carbon use efficiency. Passive restoration has no effect on soil organic carbon stocks.

Genomics Insights Into High‐Latitude Adaptation of Tibetan Macaques
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Tibetan macaques exhibit unique adaptations to cold, high‐latitude environments, including shortened tails and enhanced fat storage. Genomic analyses reveal a species‐specific TBX6 mutation linked to tail reduction and selection on lipid metabolism genes.

Applying the concept of "energy return on investment" to desert greening of the Sahara/Sahel using a global climate model [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2014 Altering the large-scale dynamics of the Earth system through continual and deliberate human intervention now seems possible. In doing so, one should question the energetic sustainability of such interventions. Here, from the basis that a region might be
