The Astrophysical JournalWhite dwarfs (WDs) polluted by exoplanetary material provide the unprecedented opportunity to directly observe the interiors of exoplanets. However, spectroscopic surveys are often limited by brightness constraints, and WDs tend to be very faint, making ...

Canscora agni (Gentianaceae), a new species from the fire‐prone Indian savannas
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.We describe Canscora agni from the Indian savannas as a distinct species which differs from its allied species Canscora alata in having fewer and shorter leaves, pedicel‐wings unequal across the length, bracts with glandular hair on the margins, calyx‐wings being four, wider, up to 2.3 mm, with distinct reticulate venation and having ovary length up to

SN 2022oqm: A Bright and Multipeaked Calcium-rich Transient
The Astrophysical JournalWe present the photometric and spectroscopic evolution of SN 2022oqm, a nearby multipeaked hydrogen- and helium-weak calcium-rich transient (CaRT). SN 2022oqm was detected 13.1 kpc from its host galaxy, the face-on spiral galaxy NGC 5875.

Oikos, EarlyView.Many key ecosystem functions are affected by plant roots and their traits. However, understanding of the patterns in, and drivers of, root traits lags far behind equivalent knowledge of above‐ground tissues, particularly in boreal old growth forests. We surveyed community‐level root traits across 11 old growth forests spanning a wide latitudinal range ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The town of Gamba in southwest Gabon represents an exceptional example of how the development of an extractive industry (in this case oil production) may impact wild meat consumption in an area of global importance for biodiversity. Studies in the 1990s identified an active wild meat trade; however, no studies have been undertaken since, and ...

Psychology in the Schools, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As concerns for rising rates of youth suicide and suicidal thoughts and behaviors continue to grow, there is a need to prioritize school‐based suicide prevention programs. Despite evidence documenting the effectiveness of school‐based prevention programs for reducing suicide‐related risk in adolescents, schools face numerous barriers to ...

Modeled Subsidence of Permafrost Terrain 2025–2050: North‐Central Alaska
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A large fraction of the Alaska terrain is underlain by regolith that contains excess ice (ice that in volume exceeds the natural pore space). Possible loss of excess ice would lead to ground subsidence, which in turn would disturb and destabilize the ground surface.

Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables with Binary-driven Mass Loss during Nova Eruptions
The Astrophysical JournalThe discrepancies between observations and theoretical predictions of cataclysmic variables (CVs) suggest that there exists unknown angular-momentum-loss mechanism(s) besides magnetic braking and gravitational radiation.

Past, present and future of local crop evolution
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Promoting agrobiodiversity is a promising strategy for mitigating the negative effects of climate change on global food security. We highlight the central role evolutionary processes play in harnessing the potential of local crops by integrating genomics, archaeology, ethnobotany and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK).
