Though archaea are ubiquitous in the oceans, at times present in quantities equal to bacteria, in general, archaea are underreported when compared with bacteria, and little is known about archaeal connectivity in the ocean. Here, we present the first time series data of size‐fractionated archaea with temporal resolution of days across a depth transect in the oligotrophic Atlantic Ocean. Archaeal communities were variable from...

Coastal bays, such as Delaware Bay, are highly productive, ecologically important transitions between rivers and the coastal ocean. They offer opportunities to investigate archaeal assemblages across seasons, with the exchange of water masses that occurs with tidal cycles, and in the context of variable organic matter quality. For a year‐long estuarine, size‐fractionated time series, we used amplicon sequencing, chemical measu...

Climate change is increasing the frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme weather events across the globe. Understanding the capacity for ecological communities to withstand and recover from such events is critical. Typhoons are extreme weather events that are expected to broadly homogenize ecological dynamics through structural damage to vegetation and longer‐term effects of salinization. Given their unpredictable nature...

Whether endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) improves functional outcome in patients with large-vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke that do not comply with inclusion criteria of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) but that are considered for EVT in clinical practice is uncertain. We aimed to systematically identify patients with LVO stroke underrepresented in RCTs who might benefit from EVT. Following the premises that (i) patients witho...

An undersowing system with additional intercropping of flowering plants was assessed in field trials in Germany and Japan to estimate regulating effects on pests and possible negative effects on white cabbage ( Brassica oleracea var. capitata ). In particular, we tested cabbage undersown with wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) and cabbage undersown with wheat plus additional sweet alyssum ( Lobularia maritima L. Desv.) intercroppin...

Land surface models have an increasing scope. Initially designed to capture the feedbacks between the land and the atmosphere as part of weather and climate prediction, they are now used as a critical tool in the urgent need to inform policy about land-use and water-use management in a world that is changing physically and economically. This paper outlines the way that models have evolved through this change of purpose and wha...

Summary Serpentinization is a geologic process that produces highly reduced, hydrogen‐rich fluids that support microbial communities under high pH conditions. We investigated the activity of microbes capable of extracellular electron transfer in a terrestrial serpentinizing system known as ‘The Cedars’. Measuring current generation with an on‐site two‐electrode system, we observed daily oscillations in current with the current...

Life history evolution spurred by post‐Pleistocene climatic change is hypothesized to be responsible for the present diversity in periodical cicadas ( Magicicada ), but the mechanism of life cycle change has been controversial. To understand the divergence process of 13‐year and 17‐year cicada life cycles, we studied genetic relationships between two synchronously emerging, parapatric 13‐year periodical cicada species in the D...
