A review of Water Use Efficiency across space and time

Water Use Efficiency (WUE) is the variable linking assimilation and storage of carbon in plants with the release of water through transpiration. In this study, we combine multiple datasets including global scale leaf-level gas exchange measurements, tree-r ...

Overview of the MOSAiC expedition—Atmosphere

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Radiance Flore Aurore Calmer, Michael Lonardi, Hélène Paule Angot, Markus Frey, Thomas Krumpen

With the Arctic rapidly changing, the needs to observe, understand, and model the changes are essential. To support these needs, an annual cycle of observations of atmospheric properties, processes, and interactions were made while drifting with the sea ic ...

Inferring the magnetic field vector in the quiet Sun III. Disk variation of the Stokes profiles and isotropism of the magnetic field

Philipp Kobel

Recent investigations of the magnetic field vector properties in the solar internetwork have provided diverging results. While some works found that the internetwork is mostly pervaded by horizontal magnetic fields, other works argued in favor of an isotro ...

Mid- to late Holocene climate change- an overview

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Stefan Müller

The last 6000 years are of particular interest to the understanding of the Earth System because the boundary conditions of the climate system did not change dramatically (in comparison to larger glacial–interglacial changes), and because abundant, detailed ...

Climate and interannual variability of the atmosphere-biosphere 13CO2 flux

Jed Oliver Kaplan

We present a bottom-up approach to simulate the terrestrial isotopic carbon variations using the Lund-Potsdam-Jena dynamic global vegetation model (LPJ-DGVM). LPJ is extended to include isotopic fractionation of C-13 at the leaf level during assimilation a ...

Progress in the study of climatic extremes in northern and central Europe

Martine Rebetez

A study of the long-term changes of various climatic extremes was made jointly by a number of European countries. It was found that the changes in maximum and minimum temperatures follow, in broad terms, the corresponding well-documented mean temperature c ...

Regional behavior of minimum temperatures in Switzerland for the period 1979-1993

Martine Rebetez

A series of anomalously cold and warm winters which occurred in Switzerland during the 15-year period from 1979 to 1993 has been analyzed in detail in terms of temperature minima. The warm winters between 1988-1992 were particularly marked in the Alps, whe ...
