Novel Glomeromycotina–moss associations identified in California dryland biocrusts

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Drylands, which comprise c. 45% of Earth's land area, host biological soil crusts (biocrusts): symbiotic communities of cyanobacteria, fungi, algae, lichen, and bryophytes that stabilize soil and support key ecosystem functions. Moss‐dominated biocrusts are particularly interesting due to their potential to illuminate ancient bryophyte–fungal ...

A review of ecological risks of coral reef interventions

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, essential for biodiversity, livelihoods, and global economies, face severe threats from climate change and other stressors. Curbing greenhouse emissions is crucial, but the urgent situation also calls for immediate intervention strategies.

Sedimentary biogeochemical provinces in the northern limit of the oxygen minimum zone from the northeastern Mexican Pacific

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Continental margins are reservoirs of materials of terrestrial and marine origin, and they play a crucial role in understanding the spatial and temporal variability of biogeochemical cycles. This, in turn, provides insights into the development and intensity of oxygen minimum zones (OMZs).

Climate conditions on the South‐Iberian Palaeomargin during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian: A mineralogical and geochemical study from hemipelagic deposits

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.

Integrating virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract VR environments offer opportunities for novel science learning experiences. This article discusses how we integrated virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers. We explore the affordances of VR for enhancing science education and its potential applications in secondary level classrooms. Specifically, we describe

Biogeochemical properties of shallow-water CO2 seeps on Himeshima Island and Showa Iwojima Island, Japan

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science
Volcanic gases erupt from the seafloor in several regions around Japan. Volcanological and geochemical gas seep studies have mainly focused on coastal shallow-water areas that are relatively accessible and important to human society.

Disentangling the Effects of Global and Regional Drivers on Diverse Long‐Term pH Trends in Coastal Waters

open access: yesAGU Advances
Unlike declines of pH in the open ocean on the total scale (pHT), coastal systems have shown complex long‐term trends in pHT due to a multitude of global and regional drivers.

Report of the SNOMS Project 2006 to 2012, SNOMS SWIRE NOCS Ocean Monitoring System. Part 1: Narrative description

open access: yes, 2013
The ocean plays a major role in controlling the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere. Increasing concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere are a threat to the stability of the earth’s climate.
