The Importance of the Representation of DMS Oxidation in Global Chemistry‐Climate Simulations
; ; ; ; (Geophysical Research Letters, 2021-07-08)
The oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is key for the natural sulfate aerosol formation and its climate impact. Multiphase chemistry is an important oxidation pathway but neglected in current chemistry‐climate models. ... -
Quasi‐4‐Day Wave: Atmospheric Manifestation of the First Symmetric Rossby Normal Mode of Zonal Wavenumber 2

Assessment of C, N, and Si Isotopes as Tracers of Past Ocean Nutrient and Carbon Cycling
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2021-07-02)
Biological productivity in the ocean directly influences the partitioning of carbon between the atmosphere and ocean interior. Through this carbon cycle feedback, changing ocean productivity has long been hypothesized as ... -
A ∼12 Myr Miocene Record of East Asian Monsoon Variability From the South China Sea
; ; ; (Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, 2021-07-01)
The long‐term evolution of the East Asian Monsoon and the processes controlling its variability under changing climate boundary conditions remain enigmatic. Here, we integrate new and published high‐resolution planktic and ... -
The Evolution of Central Volcanoes in Ultraslow Rift Systems: Constraints From D. João de Castro Seamount, Azores
; ; ; ; (Tectonics, 2021-06-29)
The Dom João de Castro seamount in the Hirondelle Basin (Azores) is a central volcano on the ultraslow diverging Terceira Rift axis. The combination of structural and geochemical data provides insights into the evolution ... -
Deep Emulators for Differentiation, Forecasting, and Parametrization in Earth Science Simulators
; (Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2021-06-28)
To understand and predict large, complex, and chaotic systems, Earth scientists build simulators from physical laws. Simulators generalize better to new scenarios, require fewer tunable parameters, and are more interpretable ... -
Seasonal and Mesoscale Variability of the Two Atlantic Water Recirculation Pathways in Fram Strait
; ; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2021-06-25)
Atlantic Water (AW), which is transported northward by the West Spitsbergen Current (WSC), partly recirculates (i.e., turns westward) in Fram Strait. This determines how much heat and salt reaches the Arctic Ocean, and how ... -
Hydrological modelling for assessing spatio‐temporal groundwater recharge variations in the water‐stressed Amathole Water Supply System, Eastern Cape, South Africa
; Eley, Malte; Schöniger, Matthias; Gwapedza, David; Tanner, Jane; Mantel, Sukhmani Kaur; Scheihing, Konstantin (Hydrological Processes, 2021-06-23)
Abstract To increase the resilience of regional water supply systems in South Africa in the face of anticipated climatic changes and a constant increase in water demand, water supply sources require diversification. Many ... -
Results of the Electron Drift Instrument on Cluster
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 2021-06-23)
The electron drift instrument (EDI) on Cluster pioneered a new method of measuring electric fields, using a beam of electrons to sample the drift velocity over a km‐scale gyro orbit. The technique is especially well suited ... -
Development of an Alternative Test System for Chronic Testing of Lotic Macroinvertebrate Species: A Case Study with the Insecticide Imidacloprid
(Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2021-06-22)There are currently few suitable test systems for the chronic toxicity testing of aquatic macroinvertebrates under stream conditions. Therefore, a new test system mimicking running water conditions was developed for testing ... -
Simulation of Record Arctic Stratospheric Ozone Depletion in 2020
; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2021-06-17)
In the Arctic winter/spring of 2019/2020, stratospheric temperatures were exceptionally low until early April and the polar vortex was very stable. As a consequence, significant chemical ozone depletion occurred in the ... -
Seismic Velocity Variations in a 3D Martian Mantle: Implications for the InSight Measurements
;; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2021-06-17)
We use a large data set of 3D thermal evolution models to predict the distribution of present‐day seismic velocities in the Martian interior. Our models show a difference between maximum and minimum S wave velocity of up ... -
