‘Chrystalline Talk’: Thomas Browne's Poetics of Concretion and Mineral Plain Style

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article charts the figuration, both material and rhetorical, of mineral bodies in early modern natural philosophy, paying particular attention to the second book of Thomas Browne's Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1646). It argues that concretions (stony calculi and crystals formed through the aggregation of physical matter) make manifest a mineral

Maximum Lifetime of the Vegetative Biosphere

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract We use a three‐dimensional model to calculate steady‐state climates at various intervals in Earth's future, across a parameter space of increasing insolation and decreasing CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ mixing ratio. Comparison with prior results shows an overestimation of warming by one‐dimensional models when solar constant is increased and CO2 ...

Assessing the Circulation Response to Snow Albedo Feedback in Climate Change [PDF]

, 2012
Snow Albedo Feedback (SAF) in response to climate change is a process that can amplify the climate warming response to increases in anthropogenic atmospheric CO2 concentrations from the 20th to the 21st Century.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Earth's Cryosphere-Albedo Feedback: From the Global Scale to in Snow Metamorphosis [PDF]

Previous studies report rapid perennial Arctic sea ice-cover decline over the last few decades, but decadal-scale temporal variability of Earth's albedo feedback has not been fully assessed in future climate simulations.

Partial landslide occlusion of a valley river and the hydro‐climatological drivers of landslide‐lake ephemerality

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
Timeline of Te Horo lake presence and absence interspersed with unknown landscape periods between 2014 and 2025, noting the lifespan of initial formation 2014–2019, the 2020–2021 lake formation and the increasing volume of observations from 2017 onwards. Chronology reconstructed from satellite imagery.

Physical properties of the NEGIS ice core - The upper 1700m in EGRIP [PDF]

, 2018
We will present the EGRIP CPO (c-axes fabric) dataset and give preliminary interpretations concerning the processes leading to its evolution. 120 bags were selected, with a minimum depth resolution of 15m.

Alaska‐Yukon Glacier Depths From a Decade of Airborne Radar Sounding

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract NASA's Operation IceBridge employed airborne radar sounders in Alaska and adjacent northwestern Canada between 2012 and 2021 to measure the thickness of the region's glaciers. Here we present the first comprehensive analysis of these data, analyzing ∼31,700 linear‐km of radar profile data to provide over 5,500 linear‐km of ice thickness and ...

Sensitivity of Soil Chemical Erosion Rate to Climate and Dust Along a 2.8‐km Elevation Transect at San Jacinto Mountain, California

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Chemical weathering is of wide interest because it breaks down minerals, releases nutrients, weakens rock, and draws down atmospheric CO2. To quantify the sensitivity of soil chemical erosion rate to climate and dust, we measured soil chemical erosion rate, dust deposition rate, and soil climate at 18 ridgetop sites along a ∼2.8‐km elevation ...
