How Complete Is Cloud Glaciation?
Geophysical Research LettersBelow 0°C, cloud droplets can freeze, altering a cloud's optical and radiative properties and thereby affecting Earth's energy balance. The microphysical mechanisms that govern this process, known as glaciation, are expected to act on minute timescales ...

Quaternary evolution of the Altay Mountains lakes systems [PDF]
Журнал Сибирского федерального университета: Серия Биология, 2009 Global cooling in the Early Pleistocene caused extensive continental glaciation in the northern hemisphere including the arid areas of Central Asia. The reduction of temperatures (particularly summer temperatures) reduced evaporation and strengthened the

The spread of non‐native species
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Age and origin of enigmatic megaherbs from the subantarctic islands [PDF]
, 2007 Biogeographic relationships in the southern hemisphere have puzzled biologists for the last two centuries. Once joined to form the supercontinent Gondwana, Africa, Antarctica, Australia, New Zealand and South America are widely separated by the Pacific ...

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.Abstract A rapid assessment of manufacturability for drug candidates is crucial for advancing a prospective biotherapeutic from a candidate to a bulk drug substance. A lot‐to‐lot approach to manufacturability is adopted where each biologic batch is assessed for manufacturability as a bulk, unfractionated pool.

The Grounding of an Ice Shelf in the Central Arctic Ocean: A Modeling Experiment [PDF]
, 2003 A numerical ice sheet model was used in a first test towards evaluating the hypothesis that, during a period of large-scale glaciation, an ice shelf emanating from the Barents/Kara Seas grounded across parts of the Lomonosov Ridge to a depth of around ...
