ABSTRACT The Yellow River Basin is a critical region for ecological conservation and sustainable development in China. It also serves as a core area for carbon emissions across various functional zones of construction land. Accurately understanding carbon emissions from various types of construction land in the Yellow River Basin is crucial for China ...

ABSTRACT Landscape fragmentation may influence the spatial distribution and temporal variation of non‐point source (NPS) pollution by altering hydrological processes, pollutant transport pathways, and ecosystem service functions. However, under the combined effects of natural factors (e.g., precipitation, topography) and anthropogenic factors (e.g ...

Significance of Size‐Dependent Hygroscopicity Parameterization for Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions
Abstract Aerosol‐cloud interactions (aerosol indirect effects) are the most significant source of uncertainties in the effective radiative forcing (ERF) due to aerosols which can act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). Uncertainties in the indirect effect can result from systematic uncertainties in aerosol water uptake (hygroscopicity).

High‐ and Low‐Concentration Spiral Chlorophyll Bands Excited by Vortex Rossby Waves
Abstract High‐concentration spiral chlorophyll bands (HSCBs) embedded in oceanic mesoscale eddies have recently been observed worldwide. They are considered to be the footprints of vortex Rossby waves (VRWs). Based on satellite observations and drifter data, we identified additional low‐concentration spiral chlorophyll bands (LSCBs).
