Background Understory plants represents the largest component of biodiversity in most forest ecosystems and plays a key role in forest functioning. Despite their importance, the influence of overstory-layer composition on understory plant diversity is ...

Ice production and convective mixing in the coastal polynya off Lutzow-Holm Bay, Antarctica
A coastal polynya often forms around Lutzow-Holm Bay even in severe winter. To clarify the characteristics of oceanic structure in the polynya, the water mass of the convective-mixed layer was analyzed. Haline convection by the high ice production in the

Mid-depth temperature maximum in an estuarine lake
The mid-depth temperature maximum (TeM) was measured in an estuarine Bol’shoi Vilyui Lake (Kamchatka peninsula, Russia) in summer 2015. We applied 1D k –ε model LAKE to the case, and found it successfully simulating the phenomenon. We argue that the main

Marine Heatwaves/Cold‐Spells Associated With Mixed Layer Depth Variation Globally
Marine heatwaves (MHWs) and cold‐spells (MCSs) are extreme sea surface temperature events with significant impacts on marine ecosystems. However, the connection between these events and mixed layer depth (MLD) variations, as well as how their intensity ...
