Global Health Hazards From Human‐Derived Volatile Organic Compounds Amid Emission Variability
Abstract Health risks from high air pollution exposure remain challenging despite pollution control strategies. Health hazards caused by particulate matter and ozone have been reported for the past three decades.

Simulated Ocean Oxygen Under Miocene Boundary Conditions
Abstract The Miocene Climatic Optimum (MCO; 16.9–14.7 Ma) was a warm interval with atmospheric CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ comparable to end‐of‐21st‐century projections under intermediate emission scenarios. Proxy records indicate the Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ) in the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP) was small or non‐existent during the MCO, expanding only when

Identifying hotspots of faunal data deficiency to direct urgent research and monitoring
Abstract Data deficiency is a substantial challenge for extinction risk assessments because incomplete data means we cannot accurately identify priority protected areas for conservation. Here, we use the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) distributions of amphibians, sharks and rays, fish, mammals, birds, and reptiles to identify ...
