Harmonising digitised herbarium data to enhance biodiversity knowledge: Major steps towards an updated checklist for the flora of Greenland

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Herbaria worldwide hold centuries of plant data that are key to understanding and protecting biodiversity; however, even with increased digital access, differences in plant naming systems make it difficult to compare records. We developed a semi‐automated workflow that standardises species names and organises herbaria records from multiple institutions

Digitization connects scattered specimens and enables new historical research: Plants from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Widespread museum digitization initiatives have made the world's herbaria more accessible than ever, launching a renaissance of specimen use. We highlight the value of digitization to bolster both scientific and historical research using the specimens from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884) to the Canadian arctic, remembered for its tragedy ...

Linking to images and AI‐based identification tools—The only way for Flora projects to survive

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Floras are comprehensive and authoritative catalogues of plants growing in an area of interest. They help people find and name plants, which is achieved by a combination of images, drawings, and text, rarely also maps. Like other catalogues (lexica, dictionaries, telephone books), Floras will not survive unless they move online and become portable ...

ERA5 deficit in supercooled liquid water cloud radiative forcing at Dome C, Antarctica

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Meteorological reanalyses from ERA5 for December from 1940 to the present have been analysed to assess the logarithmic relationship between liquid water path (LWP, liquid water profile integrated along the vertical) and supercooled liquid water (SLW, liquid water at temperatures less than 0°C) cloud radiative forcing (CRF) over Dome C, Antarctica as ...
