The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Morpho‐structural analysis of impact craters on Pluto: Implications for the study of complex craters
Abstract We used Pluto's global digital elevation model to automatically perform a morphometric analysis of impact craters. Triangular irregular networks (TINs) were generated for each crater, providing a detailed representation of crater topography and enabling more accurate morpho‐structural analysis. A dedicated toolkit generated radial profiles for

Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Abstract Introduction Endangered fish species, such as Delta smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus), in the San Francisco Estuary are threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic stressors. Tidal wetland restoration can partially mitigate these stressors by increasing food availability of aquatic invertebrate prey, but the efficacy of restoration remains ...
