Various mechanisms were proposed as substantial drivers of (sub)tropical South American hydroclimate changes during the last deglaciation. However, the interpretation of past precipitation records from the regions affected by the South American Summer Monsoon, the dominant hydroclimatic system in (sub)tropical South America, still insufficiently consider feedbacks between oceanic and atmospheric processes evident in modern obs...

There are few data on mortality after discharge with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Therefore, we evaluated risk factors for 30-day post-discharge mortality after CAP. We included all patients of the prospective multi-national CAPNETZ study between 2002 and 2018 with (1) hospitalized CAP, (2) survival until discharge, and (3) complete follow-up data. The study endpoint was death within 30 days after discharge. We evaluate...

Summary The biogeochemistry of North Atlantic salt marshes is characterized by the interplay between the marsh grass Spartina and sulphate‐reducing bacteria (SRB), which mineralize the diverse carbon substrates provided by the plants. It was hypothesized that SRB populations display high diversity within the sediment as a result of the rich spatial and chemical structuring provided by Spartina roots. A 2000‐member 16S rRNA gen...
