A Global Assessment of Heatwaves Since 1850 in Different Observational and Model Data Sets [PDF]
We show that ModE-Sim, a global ensemble of atmospheric model simulations that uses observed ocean boundary conditions and radiative forcings providing 36 members with daily climate information can be used to in-depth analyze the known spatial and ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

Rearrangement Towards Stability: Plastic Shakedown in Granular Materials Under Thermal Cycles
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Granular materials are routinely subjected to thermal cycling due to natural and anthropogenic phenomena. Despite the ubiquity of this occurrence and its relevance for science, engineering, and technology, the long‐term thermo‐mechanical response of granular materials to repeated heating and cooling remains poorly understood.
