Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Upper Ocean Transport Variability in the Subtropical North Atlantic [PDF]

, 2010
Many general circulation models predict a reduction in overturning strength in the 21st century as a response to anthropogenic forcing, meaning that novel methods of monitoring individual components of the subtropical North Atlantic circulation are ...

Renewable energy mapping in Northeastern Morocco: A geographic information system‐based comparison of geothermal, solar, and wind potential in the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen regions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract summarizes a geographic information system (GIS)‐based synthesis of renewable energy resources in Northeastern Morocco, focusing on the Guercif‐Guilliz and Beni Snassen areas. It visually presents the spatial distribution of solar irradiation and wind energy potential derived from available datasets, alongside their relationship ...

The Arctic Ocean is a net sink for anthropogenic lead deposited into the Atlantic Ocean

Nature Communications
Humans emitted millions of tons of the toxic element lead (Pb) into the atmosphere. The North Atlantic Ocean has been strongly affected by atmospheric Pb deposition, however the role of ocean currents in dispersing the Atlantic dissolved Pb (dPb) burden ...

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

More extreme summertime North Atlantic Oscillation under climate change

Communications Earth & Environment
Extreme states of the North Atlantic Oscillation in summer can lead to severe weather events such as heatwaves and floods in Europe. But how these extremes evolve in response to climate change remains unexplored.

Extralimital sightings of a gray whale in the western North Atlantic

Endangered Species Research
Gray whales Eschrichtius robustus are High Arctic migrants that primarily inhabit the North Pacific Ocean. Gray whales have been extirpated from the North Atlantic Ocean since at least the middle of the 18th century.
