Climate Regimes across the Habitable Zone: A Comparison of Synchronous Rocky M and K Dwarf Planets
The Astrophysical JournalM and K dwarf stars make up 86% of the stellar population and host many promising astronomical targets for detecting habitable climates in the near future.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Models of spatiotemporal variation in hunter harvest show that monsoon precipitation and changes in hunter behavior and composition are the primary drivers underlying variation in annual harvest of Montezuma quail. The demographic structure of the previous year's harvest was also strongly associated with the magnitude and rate of annual harvest ...

Carbon Cycle Imbalances on Arid Terrestrial Planets with Implications for Venus
The Planetary Science JournalArid terrestrial exoplanets are potentially abundant and are thus interesting targets in the search for life. In particular, M-dwarf planets such as those in the TRAPPIST-1 system may possess limited surface water, whereas early solar system terrestrials

Post‐release tracking to monitor success of black cockatoo rehabilitation in Western Australia
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Post‐release tracking of rehabilitated black cockatoos in Western Australia showed high success (79.4%), with survival, self‐feeding, and flock reintegration achieved by most birds. Larger resident flocks were significantly associated with improved post‐release outcomes.

Habitability of Planets in Binaries
, 2007 A survey of currently known extrasolar planets indicates that close to 20% of their hosting stars are members of binary systems. While the majority of these binaries are wide (i.e., with separations between 250 and 6500 AU), the detection of Jovian-type planets in the three binaries of Gamma Cephei (separation of 18.5 AU), GL 86 (separation of 21 AU ...

Limnology and Oceanography Bulletin, EarlyView.Abstract Statistical analysis is a cornerstone of scientific research, yet young researchers in aquatic sciences often struggle when analyses begin without a clearly defined research question or a solid understanding of the data structure. This disconnect between data collection and analytical decision‐making recurrently drives unreliable findings ...

The past and future habitability of planet Mars [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 SummaryResults from NASA’s Curiosity rover reveal traces of bygone aqueous environments with sufficiently benign conditions for some of Earth’s hardier extremophiles to thrive. If Mars hosted life in the past, it may do so again in the future, as a project to colonise our neighbour planet is now recruiting volunteers for the one-way trip. Michael Gross

A space mission dedicated for the characterization of habitable rocky planets
, 2020 A new era is expected to arrive around 2030 with a pool of exoplanets amounting to about ten thousand, including mainly small to medium-sized planets, and over a hundred habitable terrestrial rocky planets, thanks to the space-borne transit surveys by ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
Oikos, EarlyView.The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Nonlinear and Nonmonotonic Effect of Ocean Tidal Mixing on Exoplanet Climates and Habitability
The Astrophysical Journal LettersTides play an important role in the circulation and mean state of the Earth’s oceans through inducing significant mixing. On other planets, tidal forcings could be highly amplified compared to Earth, such as planets orbiting relatively close to low-mass ...
