Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The habitable zone for Earthlike exomoons orbiting Kepler-1625b
, 2018 The recent announcement of a Neptune-sized exomoon candidate orbiting the Jupiter-sized object Kepler-1625b has forced us to rethink our assumptions regarding both exomoons and their host exoplanets. In this paper I describe calculations of the habitable

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Effective knowledge of ecological connectivity at sea and at the land–sea interface is key to supporting global policy goals to conserve and restore ocean biodiversity and function. However, a persistent lack of commonality in terminology and understanding around the concept of connectivity in marine ecological studies hampers its integration ...

The Role of Tectonic Luck in Long-term Habitability of Abiotic Earth-like Planets
The Planetary Science JournalCarbonate-silicate weathering feedback is thought to stabilize Earth’s climate on geologic timescales. If climate warms, faster mineral dissolution and increased rainfall speed up weathering, increasing CO _2 drawdown and opposing the initial warming ...

The spread of non‐native species
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Simulated Climate of TRAPPIST-1e Using MPAS-A and Comparisons with Other GCMs
The Planetary Science JournalDayside convection is one of the most important contributors to a tidally locked planet’s climate. Considering the long-standing challenge of simulating convections, we employ a convection-resolving model known as the Model for Prediction across Scales ...
