An Ionic Limit to Life in the Deep Subsurface
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 The physical and chemical factors that can limit or prevent microbial growth in the deep subsurface are not well defined. Brines from an evaporite sequence were sampled in the Boulby Mine, United Kingdom between 800 and 1300 m depth.

Terminator Habitability: The Case for Limited Water Availability on M-dwarf Planets
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Rocky planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are among the most promising and abundant astronomical targets for detecting habitable climates. Planets in the M-dwarf habitable zone are likely synchronously rotating, such that we expect significant day–night ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transformative change is required to address persistent and systemic drivers of biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need for innovative solutions that tackle root causes in place‐specific contexts. Evidence indicates that small, innovative, purpose‐driven businesses can serve as vehicles for developing place‐based solutions.

User-friendly carbon-cycle modelling and aspects of Phanerozoic climate change
Applied Computing and GeosciencesCarbon-cycle modelling is essential for testing the main carbon sources and sinks as climate forcings, and we introduce and describe GEOCARB_NET, a graphical user interface for the geologic carbon and sulfur cycle model GEOCARBSULFvolc.

Disentangling the interactive effects of anthropogenic disturbances on biodiversity
Ecography, EarlyView.Anthropogenic activity threatens biodiversity through climate change, habitat fragmentation, and increasing frequency and scale of disturbance. Various theoretical studies have sought to shed light on how these factors could promote or hinder the coexistence of species. However, our understanding of the relative importance of, and interactions between,

Dynamics of Y dwarf atmospheres
Astronomy & AstrophysicsContext. The global circulation regime of the coolest class of brown dwarfs, known as the Y dwarfs, remains largely unexplored. Aims. We aim to investigate the interplay between convection, rotation, and cloud thermal feedback through a selected sample ...
