Drylands store most of the global soil inorganic carbon (SIC), yet the extent to which this pool interacts with contemporary carbon (C) cycling remains poorly understood. To test whether SIC behaves primarily as an inert geological reservoir or instead bears a modern carbon imprint, we quantified SIC content and radiocarbon (∆ 14 C) at 42 dryland sites spanning broad aridity gradients across Eurasia. We also evaluated the clim...

Theta-aurora dynamics: Ionospheric mapping of evolving magnetospheric plasma boundariesNARA Subscribed
The theta-aurora, an auroral feature bridging the nightside and dayside auroral oval under a northward interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), is closely linked to the energetic plasma evolving within the magnetosphere. While existing views emphasize that energetic plasma resides on closed field lines, the mechanism by which it is accelerated and precipitates on open field lines to form the theta aurora remains poorly understood....
Climate, peace, and conflict—past and present: Bridging insights from historical sciences and contemporary researchNARA Subscribed
Concern has risen that current global warming and more frequent extreme events such as droughts and floods will increase conflict around the world. This concern has spurred both social science research on contemporary climate, peace, and conflict as well as research in the historical sciences on past climate, weather, warfare, and violence. This perspectives article compares these two fields of scholarship and examines how eac...
Dominance and rarity in tree communities across the globe: Patterns, predictors and threatsNARA Subscribed
Aim Ecological and anthropogenic factors shift the abundances of dominant and rare tree species within local forest communities, thus affecting species composition and ecosystem functioning. To inform forest and conservation management it is important to understand the drivers of dominance and rarity in local tree communities. We answer the following research questions: (1) What are the patterns of dominance and rarity in tree...
