High-resolution record of Northern Hemisphere climate extending into the last interglacial period
, 2004 Two deep ice cores from central Greenland, drilled in the 1990s, have played a key role in climate reconstructions of the Northern Hemisphere, but the oldest sections of the cores were disturbed in chronology owing to ice folding near the bedrock.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The study of morphological evolution is fundamentally tied to ontogeny, yet studies of these heterochronic processes in the fossil record are rare. Fossils belonging to an ontogenetic series are difficult to assign to an ontogenetic stage due to inconsistent proxies for skeletal ages, challenging to taxonomically assign due to morphological ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Last year, we challenged the view that large‐bodied theropod dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex resembled primates in cognition and behavior, a proposition made by Herculano‐Houzel in 2023. More recently, Jensen et al. have criticized our work on this topic, raising methodological and conceptual issues.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Tyrannosaurus is viewed as a model organism in vertebrate paleontology, with numerous studies analyzing its feeding biomechanics. Nonetheless, the evolution of this feeding performance has been under‐addressed in Tyrannosauroidea, especially in basal tyrannosauroids. Here we used muscle‐force reconstruction and finite element analysis (FEA) to

Interannual Modulation of Northern Hemisphere Winter Storm Tracks by the QBO
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 Storm tracks, defined as the preferred regions of extratropical synoptic‐scale disturbances, have remarkable impacts on global weather and climate systems.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 In previous studies, the northern hemisphere of the Earth is considered to be in compression while the southern one is in expansion. In this study, based on three different methods, we calculate average vertical variations of the two hemispheres from ...

Forcing of Northern Hemisphere Climate Trends
Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2003 The impact of observed global SST trends during the second half of the twentieth century on the Northern Hemisphere extratropical winter atmospheric circulation is investigated using ensembles of simulations with the Center for Ocean‐Land‐Atmosphere Studies (COLA) atmospheric GCM.

The sensitivity of Northern Hemisphere ice sheets to atmospheric forcing during the last glacial cycle using PMIP3 models [PDF]
, 2019 The evolution of Northern Hemisphere ice sheets through the last glacial cycle is simulated with the glacial index method by using the climate forcing from one General Circulation Model, COSMOS.
