Evolutionary history and seascape genomics of Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) across environmental gradients in the North Atlantic and adjacent waters

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

Dyslipidemia and the preventive potential in the Greenlandic population

open access: yesAtherosclerosis Plus, 2023
Background: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a well-established risk factor for development of cardiovascular diseases. Based on available clinical data, we aimed to investigate the plasma lipid profile in the Greenlandic population, the ...

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 ...

Dynamics of Crystal Formation in the Greenland NorthGRIP Ice Core [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Glaciology 50, 325 (2004), 2003
The North Greenland Ice Core Project (NorthGRIP) provides paleoclimatic information back to at about 120 kyr before present (Dahl-Jensen and others, 2002). Each year, precipitation on the ice sheet covers it with a new layer of snow, which gradually transforms into ice crystals as the layer sinks into the ice sheet.

Efficacy of a Tumor Necrosis Factor Inhibitor in Chronic Low‐Back Pain With Modic Type 1 Changes: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Efficacy of a Tumor necrosis inhibitor in chronic low‐back pain with Modic type 1 changes: The BackToBasic study, A randomized controlled trial. Objective The efficacy of tumor necrosis factor inhibitors for treating chronic low‐back pain with Modic changes is uncertain.

A first constraint on basal melt-water production of the Greenland ice sheet

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Melting at the base of the Greenland Ice Sheet is often disregarded as a source of quantifiable mass loss. In this study, the authors find the basal mass loss is equivalent to 8% of the ice sheet’s present imbalance, and that the loss of mass from basal ...

Tusk anomalies in narwhals (Monodon monoceros) from Greenland

open access: yesPolar 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.

Technical Issues in the Interpretation of S-values and Their Relation to Other Information Measures [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 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]

open access: yesGeophys. 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 ...

How Can Religion Shape Pro‐Environmental Behavior in a Materialistic World? Contrasting Idealism With Realism Religious Epics

open access: yesJournal 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.
