Science Needs for a Terrestrial Biosphere Tipping Point Early Warning System
Abstract Tipping points in the Earth system have the potential to cause major detrimental impacts to the biosphere and societies. Their inherent nonlinearity implies that even relatively small additional increases in external forcing might result in disproportionately large adjustments to components of the Earth system.

The Political U: New Evidence on the Economic Costs of Hybrid Regimes
ABSTRACT Recent research establishes a positive causal effect from democracy to income, although this evidence relies mostly on binary regime classifications. We extend the identification framework of Acemoglu et al. (2019) to a classification that distinguishes democracies, autocracies, and hybrid regimes for about 170 countries over 1960–2024.

Abstract Determining the atmospheric abundance and the emission sources of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) plays a crucial role for the sulfur budget in the atmosphere. In addition to its main anthropogenic and biogenic sources, biomass burning is assumed to be an essential, but not well constrained source of OCS.
