Does the abiotic environment influence the distribution of flower and fruit colors?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Color in flowers and fruits carries multiple functions, from attracting animal partners (pollinators, dispersers) to mitigating environmental stress (cold, drought, UV‐B). With research historically focusing on biotic interactions as selective agents, however, it remains unclear whether abiotic stressors impact flower and fruit colors ...

Accelerating changes in ice mass within Greenland, and the ice sheet’s sensitivity to atmospheric forcing

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance The recent deglaciation of Greenland is a response to both oceanic and atmospheric forcings. From 2000 to 2010, ice loss was concentrated in the southeast and northwest margins of the ice sheet, in large part due to the increasing discharge ...

Temperature and the evolution of flower color: A review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Flower colors brighten our natural world. How and why have they evolved? How might ongoing global warming alter their evolutionary trajectories? In this review, I examine the influence of ambient temperature on the evolution of flower color.

Changes in the Greenland Ice Sheet of the Southeastern Maniitsoq Coast from 1994-2004 and 2009-2019 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Remote sensing mechanisms through the use of technology like the Landsat 5-7 Land Manager satellites are commonly used in conjunction with multispectral methods such as unsupervised classification to record and analyze changes in snow and ice over time ...

Paleocene-Eocene volcanic segmentation of the Norwegian-Greenland seaway reorganized high-latitude ocean circulation

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2021
Uplift and volcanism drove fragmentation of the Norwegian-Greenland seaway, which may have restricted Arctic-Atlantic exchange during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, according to sedimentological, paleontological and seismic analyses from NE ...

Chemical species spatial distribution and relationship to elevation and snow accumulation rate over the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Major chemical species (Cl−, NO−3, SO2−4, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+) from 24 snowpits (sampled at a resolution of 3 cm, total 2995 samples) collected from northern, central, and southern Greenland were used for this investigation.

Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.

High export of dissolved silica from the Greenland Ice Sheet

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Silica is an essential element for marine life and plays a key role in the biogeochemistry of the ocean. Glacial activity stimulates rock weathering, generating dissolved silica that is exported to coastal areas along with meltwater. The magnitude of the
