An Observation‐Driven Approach to Improve Vegetation Phenology in a Global Land Surface Model
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020 An empirical model calibration approach is presented that aims to approximate missing biosphere processes in a global land surface model without the need for substantial model structural changes.

Effects of Spaceflight on Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocyte Structure and Function. [PDF]
, 2019 With extended stays aboard the International Space Station (ISS) becoming commonplace, there is a need to better understand the effects of microgravity on cardiac function. We utilized human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs)

Towards an integrated scientific and social case for human space exploration [PDF]
, 2004 I will argue that an ambitious programme of human space exploration, involving a return to the Moon, and eventually human missions to Mars, will add greatly to human knowledge. Gathering such knowledge is the primary aim of science, but science's compart-

Limitations in Predicting the Space Radiation Health Risk for Exploration Astronauts [PDF]
, 2018 Despite years of research, understanding of the space radiation environment and the risk it poses to long-duration astronauts remains limited. There is a disparity between research results and observed empirical effects seen in human astronaut crews ...

Blood, 1982 A consistent deficit in the red cell mass has been observed during both the American and Soviet orbital space flights and is sometimes referred to as “astronaut anemia.” This may be associated with a reduction in plasma volume so that the hematocrit and the hemoglobin concentration remain unchanged.
