Changes in species compositions of fish in the bays of the Northwestern Gulf of Mexico
IntroductionLocal biodiversity is increasing in many temperate and subtropical waters due to climate change. It is often caused by shifting fish distributions, thus the biodiversity gradient, from lower to higher latitudes.

A floristic comparison of three Northern Coastal Forests differing in disturbance history
Background: The impacts of disturbance history on the floristics of Northern Coastal Forest (NCF; South Africa) are unknown. Objectives: This study compared the floristics of three remnant patches of NCF (in KwaZulu-Natal) with contrasting disturbance ...

The control of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) loadings to receiving waters is often overcompensated for by catchment planners. The objectives of this study, which investigated nine catchments in the subtropics of China, were to (i) quantify the explicit

Climatologically significant effects of space-time averaging in the North Atlantic sea - air heat flux fields [PDF]
Differences between “classical” and “sampling” estimates of mean climatological heat fluxes and their seasonal and interannual variability are considered on the basis of individual marine observations from the Comprehensive Ocean–Atmosphere Data Set ...

Significance Research in ecology and biogeography often assumes that ecological communities are shaped primarily by recent drivers, such as current climate and human activity. Here we analyze a comprehensive dataset of 515 large mammal communities across

Photochemical Pollution Indicators in the Subtropics
Indicators evaluated from the long-term hourly averages of ozone volume fractions at air monitoring sites are proposed as measures of the photochemical pollution exposure at those sites. These indicators are based on the average of the daily maximum-to-minimum ratio during the period of maximum ozone production and are corrected a), for the average ...

The Storm-Track Response to Idealized SST Perturbations in an Aquaplanet GCM [PDF]
The tropospheric response to midlatitude SST anomalies has been investigated through a series of aquaplanet simulations using a high-resolution version of the Hadley Centre atmosphere model (HadAM3) under perpetual equinox conditions.

Mechanisms for Springtime Onset of Isolated Precipitation across the Southeastern United States
This study uses four-year radar-based precipitation organization and reanalysis datasets to study the mechanisms that lead to the abrupt springtime onset of precipitation associated with isolated storms in the Southeast United States (SE US).

Tropical and Subtropical Fruits
Production and commercialization of tropical and subtropical fruits have strongly increased in the last decade, particularly in countries with subtropical and Mediterranean climates, with important developmental advances due to significant research efforts, including control of flowering, intensive cultivation systems and use of growth regulators. This
