Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Afforestation of tropical savannas has mixed consequences for bird communities

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Moving beyond the prevailing binary perception of savanna afforestation being either ‘good’ or ‘bad’ for native biodiversity, our data suggests that plantations on the rainfall extremes should be viewed as important supplementary habitats for biodiversity.

A mathematical characterization of vegetation effect on microwave remote sensing from the Earth [PDF]

open access: yes
In passive microwave remote sensing of the earth, a theoretical model that utilizes the radiative transfer equations was developed to account for the volume scattering effects of the vegetation canopy.

S2k guideline occupational skin products: skin protection creams, skin cleansing and skin care products

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary The AWMF S1 guideline 013/056 “Occupational Skin Products: Protective Creams, Skin Cleansers and Skin Care Products” from 2014 has been revised and upgraded to S2K level. The aim was to develop a decision aid for the optimal use of occupational skin products for the prevention of hand eczema in the workplace.

What controls forest litter decomposition? A coordinated distributed teabag experiment across ten mountains

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Litter decomposition in mountainous forest ecosystems is an essential process that affects carbon and nutrient cycling. However, the contribution of litter decomposition to terrestrial ecosystems is difficult to estimate accurately because of the limited comparability of different studies and limited data on local microclimatic and non‐climatic factors.

Colonization and extinction lags drive non‐linear responses to warming in mountain plant communities across the Northern Hemisphere

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Global warming is changing plant communities due to the arrival of new species from warmer regions and declining abundance of cold‐adapted species. However, experimentally testing predictions about trajectories and rates of community change is challenging because we normally lack an expectation for future community composition, and most warming ...
