Despite extensive research on the western Pacific crown-of-thorns starfish (CoTS; Acanthaster cf. solaris ), especially from Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR), there are persistent knowledge gaps that constrain understanding and management. Given renewed population irruptions of CoTS on the GBR, alongside escalating climate impacts and direct anthropogenic pressures, a quantitative assessment of knowledge gaps was undertake...
Clockwise or Counterclockwise: Hysteresis in the Response of Ecosystem Respiration to TemperatureNARA Subscribed
Ecosystem respiration (ER) often responds asymmetrically to seasonal warming and cooling, producing thermal hysteresis. Yet, its global patterns and drivers remain unknown. Here, we used daily ER data from 324 eddy‐covariance sites worldwide and revealed two contrasting hysteresis patterns in the temperature response of ER: clockwise hysteresis (ER is higher during the warming than cooling season) at 173 sites and counterclock...
National Evidence of Depth‐Dependent Stabilization and Controls of Soil Organic Carbon in Dryland CroplandsNARA Subscribed
Soil organic carbon (SOC) underpins agricultural sustainability and the terrestrial carbon cycle, yet its vertical distribution and stabilization across soil depth remain poorly constrained at large spatial scales. Here, we present a nationwide, depth‐resolved dataset of SOC and mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC)—the more persistent SOC fraction—from 365 dryland cropland sites across China, sampled to 2 m depth. Contrary...
A climate services organization supporting coastal resilience: lessons from the Stone Living LabNARA Subscribed
There is a growing recognition that effective climate adaptation requires organizations that can translate science into policy-relevant, place-based implementation. The Stone Living Lab (SLL) was established as a climate services organization to help bridge the gap between climate adaptation research and real-world application. In this paper, we present the Lab as a model for how universities and NGOs can partner with governme...
Storm-Resolving Earth: How Well Do Global Kilometer-scale Models Simulate Storms in East Asia’s 2020 Record-breaking Wet Summer?NARA Subscribed
High-performance computing now enables a new generation of global kilometer-scale models. As part of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) Global Hackathon 2025 initiative, for the first time, multiple cutting-edge global kilometer-scale models have been run for an entire year. All of them have covered the summer of 2020, when East Asia experienced record-breaking precipitation and catastrophic floods, mainly driven by m...
