Bayesian evaluation of the southern hemisphere radiocarbon offset during the holocene [PDF]
While an interhemispheric offset in atmospheric radiocarbon levels from AD 1950–950 is now well established, its existence earlier in the Holocene is less clear, with some studies reporting globally uniform 14C levels while others finding Southern ...

FOREST CARBON SINKS IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
There is general agreement that terrestrial systems in the Northern Hemisphere provide a significant sink for atmospheric CO2; however, estimates of the magnitude and distribution of this sink vary greatly. National forest inventories provide strong, measurement-based constraints on the magnitude of net forest carbon uptake.

Synthesis of the Northern Hemisphere of Amphidinolide H2 [PDF]
The stereoselective synthesis of a fully functionalized northern hemisphere of the marine natural product amphidinolide H2 is described. A vinylogous Mukaiyama aldol reaction and enzymatic desymmetrization of a meso compound are the key steps in the fragment syntheses. A stereoselective acetate aldol coupling and a 1,3-anti-reduction of the resulting β-

On the characteristics of astronomical refraction in the northern hemisphere [PDF]
The astronomical refraction mainly depends on the vertical structure or the height profile of atmospheric density. Concerning the vertical structure of atmospheric density, various hypotheses were presented during the last century. Among them Newton's hypothesis of equal temperature and Ivory's one that temperature diminishes at a uniform rate with ...

Mountain uplift and the glaciation of North America – a sensitivity study [PDF]
The Miocene (24 to 5 million years ago) wasa period of relative global warmth compared to the Quaternary(2 million years ago to present; e.g. Zachos et al.,2001) and was characterised by the intermittent glaciationof Antarctica only.
