Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps
Ecography, EarlyView.Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Mid-Holocene Intertropical Convergence Zone migration: connection with Hadley cell dynamics and impacts on terrestrial hydroclimate [PDF]
Climate of the PastThis study investigates the multiple changes of the Hadley cell (HC) in response to the northward migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and their combined influence on the terrestrial hydrological cycle during the mid-Holocene, using ...

Hot spots or hot moments? Contextualizing the spatio‐temporal scale of research on animal inputs
Ecography, EarlyView.Mammals play important roles in redistributing elements across ecosystems, concentrating biogeochemical inputs across both space and time. However, research on zoogeochemical inputs is often constrained by logistical considerations, potentially limiting our knowledge of mammals' impacts on biogeochemical patterns and processes.

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia
Ecography, EarlyView.Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

North-south asymmetry in activity on the Sun and cosmic ray density gradients [PDF]
The marked N-S asymmetry in solar activity (with predominant activity in the Sun's Northern Hemisphere) during the 1960's could certainly account for a S-pointing cosmic ray gradient.

Coronal Fe XIV Emission During the Whole Heliosphere Interval Campaign
, 2011 Solar Cycle 24 is having a historically long and weak start. Observations of the Fe XIV corona from the Sacramento Peak site of the National Solar Observatory show an abnormal pattern of emission compared to observations of Cycles 21, 22, and 23 from the

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.
