Technical Issues in the Interpretation of S-values and Their Relation to Other Information Measures [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 An extended technical discussion of $S$-values and unconditional information can be found in Greenland, 2019. Here we briefly cover several technical topics mentioned in our main paper, Rafi & Greenland, 2020: Different units for (scaling of) the $S$-value besides base-2 logs (bits); the importance of uniformity (validity) of the $P$-value for ...

Solar forced Dansgaard-Oeschger events and their phase relation with solar proxies [PDF]
Geophys. Res. Lett., 35, L06703, 2008, 2008 North Atlantic climate during glacial times was characterized by large-amplitude switchings, the Dansgaard-Oeschger (DO) events, with an apparent tendency to recur preferably in multiples of about 1470 years. Recent work interpreted these intervals as resulting from a subharmonic response of a highly nonlinear system to quasi-periodic solar forcing ...

An easterly tip jet off Cape Farewell, Greenland. I: Aircraft observations [PDF]
, 2009 An easterly tip jet event off Cape Farewell, Greenland, is described and analysed in considerable detail. In Part I of this study (this paper) comprehensive aircraft-based observations are described, while in Part II of this study numerical simulations ...

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on the influence of religion on pro‐environmental behavior, little attention has been paid to the role of religious epics—that is, narratives that embody the core beliefs and moral values of religious traditions—as a mechanism for promoting such behavior.

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The Harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is a highly mobile cetacean species primarily occurring in coastal and shelf waters across the Northern hemisphere. It inhabits heterogeneous seascapes broadly varying in salinity and temperature. Here, we produced 74 whole genomes at intermediate coverage to study Harbour porpoise's evolutionary ...

Tusk anomalies in narwhals (Monodon monoceros) from Greenland
Polar Research, 2022 The elongated, spiraled tusk of male narwhals (Monodon monoceros) grows continuously throughout the life of the whale and is most likely a secondary sexual trait used in male–male hierarchical competition and possibly in female mate choice.

Variability of the Northern Annular Mode's signature in winter sea ice concentration [PDF]
, 2003 Historical winter sea ice concentration data are used to examine the relation between the Northern Annular Mode (NAM) and the sea ice concentration in the Nordic seas over the past 50 years.

Greenland Ice Sheet surface melt amplified by snowline migration and bare ice exposure
Science Advances, 2019 Greenland’s snowline exhibits large fluctuations and is a primary amplifier of ice sheet surface melt and runoff. Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss has recently increased because of enhanced surface melt and runoff.

Interglacial dust, ocean fertilisation and Neoproterozoic earth oxygenation
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Mineral dust is an integral part of modern ocean nutrient supply. It is originated mainly in deserts and by glacial processes. Given the global scale of the Neoproterozoic glaciations, we suggest that mineral dust formed during snowball events were blown to oceans, sustaining life, promoting CO2 sequestration and contributing to the oxygenation of ...
