Isotopic and Concentration Analyses of CO2 and CH4 in Association With the Eddy‐Covariance Based Measurements in a Tropical Forest of Northeast India

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2021
Among the natural ecosystems, forests and wetlands emit a sizable amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) through autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration and bacterial activities. Interestingly, some evidence suggests that a significant amount

Impact of large-scale dynamic versus thermodynamic climate conditions on contrasting tropical cyclone genesis frequency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Significant advances have been made in understanding the key climate factors responsible for tropical cyclone (TC) activity, yet any theory that estimates likelihood of observed TC formation rates from mean climate states remains elusive.

Climate change, tropical fisheries and prospects for sustainable development

open access: yesNature Reviews Earth & Environment, 2020
Tropical fisheries substantially contribute to the well-being of societies in both the tropics and the extratropics, the latter through ‘telecoupling’ — linkages between distant human–natural systems.

Compartmentalized Homeostasis Drives High Bamboo Forest Productivity under Nutrient Imbalance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals how Moso bamboo achieves high productivity despite nutrient‐poor soils. It employs a unique strategy, maintaining strict nutrient balance in its leaves while using woody tissues as flexible storage reservoirs. This compartmentalized mechanism buffers the plant from soil phosphorus limitation and microbial competition, resolving the ...

Arctic sea-ice decline causes intense summer monsoon precipitation events over South Asia under greenhouse warming

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Arctic sea-ice decline has been accelerating under greenhouse warming. In this study, we investigate the tropical precipitation response to declining Arctic sea-ice using observations and climate model simulations.

Climate fluctuations of tropical coupled system: The role of ocean dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The tropical oceans have long been recognized as the most important region for large-scale ocean–atmosphere interactions, giving rise to coupled climate variations on several time scales.

Climate Change Agricultural Comparative Advantage and the US Trade Balance

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current science indicates that warming and elevated atmospheric CO2 will have ambiguous results for crop productivity depending on crop type and geographic location, whereas increased heat stress makes livestock and human labor less productive.

Coupled Feedbacks From the Tropical Pacific to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The tropical Pacific Ocean is a key regulator of Earth's climate, with teleconnections that influence remote locations all around the world. Here we use partially coupled climate model experiments to show that tropical Pacific cooling related to an ...

Spatiotemporal variability in the O-18-salinity relationship of seawater across the tropical Pacific Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The relationship between salinity and the stable oxygen isotope ratio of seawater (δ18Osw) is of utmost importance to the quantitative reconstruction of past changes in salinity from δ18O values of marine carbonates. This relationship is often considered
