Extreme weather and economic crisis in the 1430s in England, and the implications for tenurial change

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...

Distinct winter North Atlantic climate responses to tropical and extratropical eruptions over the last millennium in PMIP simulations and reconstructions [PDF]

open access: yesClimate of the Past
Large tropical (TROP) volcanic eruptions can influence North Atlantic climate by inducing a positive shift of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), typically resulting in winter warming across northern Eurasia.

The Volcanic Eruption in Dominica [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1880
ON Sunday, January 4, shortly after eleven o'clock in the morning, a volcanic eruption occurred in the Grande Soufriere district of Dominica. This district is situated near to the centre of the southern third of the island; and before the late eruption its volcanic energy was manifested by the action of four solfotaras and by the Boiling Lake.

The Form of Agency

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

A novel method based on high‐resolution imaging spectroscopy to predict fine‐root traits and the economics space of fresh tree roots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maps of the estimated root nitrogen concentration in the < 0.5‐mm‐diameter classes of 20 woody species based on the imaging spectroscopy using the shortwave infrared spectral region. Summary Tree fine‐root morphological, anatomical, and chemical traits are important to reflect belowground resource acquisition strategies to support tree growth, but ...

Evidence for the continental origin of Pliocene deposits in the central Baja California peninsula, Mexico, and implications for controls on biodiversity

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have documented genetic divergence within the last few million years between northern and southern populations of terrestrial plants and animals along the Baja California peninsula, with many studies hypothesising that the divergence is due to an ancient seaway that crossed the central peninsula and created a physical barrier ...

Fault‐Controlled Permeability: A Key Parameter in Geothermal Electricity Production Assessment

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geothermal energy is central to the global green energy transition, but its development has long focused on regions with positive thermal anomalies. Through a semi‐quantitative global‐scale review and spatial analysis of 361 geothermal sites, we show that 56.2% of global geothermal electricity production occurs in regions with thermal ...

Recurrent earthquake swarms and transient crustal deformation off the Tokara Islands, southern Japan: insights from the 2025 swarm sequence

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Transient crustal deformation is often observed in conjunction with earthquake swarms and is attributed to aseismic processes that drive swarm activity, such as magma intrusion, fluid migration, or slow slip events.

Volcanic lightning: exploring the correlation between volcanic eruption, lightning and transient luminous events from 2009 to 2022

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences
Volcanic activity represents one of the most widespread and destructive natural phenomena on Earth. Previous studies and media reports have indicated that intense volcanic eruptions are frequently accompanied by volcanic lightning. However, understanding
