Nitrogen oxides in the free troposphere: implications for tropospheric oxidants and the interpretation of satellite NO2 measurements

Satellite-based retrievals of tropospheric NO(2)columns are widely used to infer NOx (equivalent to NO + NO2) emissions. These retrievals rely on model information for the vertical distribution of NO2. The free tropospheric background above 2 km is particu ...

CH4 and N2O fluctuations during the penultimate deglaciation

Jérôme Chappellaz

Gas is trapped in polar ice sheets at ∼50-120m below the surface and is therefore younger than the surrounding ice. Firn densification models are used to evaluate this ice age-gas age difference (Δage) in the past. However, such models need to be validated ...

Supplementary Material - AL2: Progressive Activation Loss for Learning General Representations in Classification Neural Networks

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen

In this supplementary material, we present the details of the neural network architecture and training settings used in all our experiments. This holds for all experiments presented in the main paper as well as in this supplementary material. We also show ...

Global radiation in a rare biosphere soil diatom

Tyler Joe Kohler

Soil micro-organisms drive the global carbon and nutrient cycles that underlie essential ecosystem functions. Yet, we are only beginning to grasp the drivers of terrestrial microbial diversity and biogeography, which presents a substantial barrier to under ...

Inorganic carbon and nitrogen assimilation in cellular compartments of a benthic kleptoplastic foraminifer

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin, Maria-Evangelia Giovani

Haynesina germanica, an ubiquitous benthic foraminifer in intertidal mudflats, has the remarkable ability to isolate, sequester, and use chloroplasts from microalgae. The photosynthetic functionality of these kleptoplasts has been demonstrated by measuring ...

Geochemistry, geothermometry and influence of the concentration of mobile elements in the chemical characteristics of carbonate-evaporitic thermal systems. The case of the Tiermas geothermal system (Spain)

The Tiermas low temperature geothermal system, hosted in the Paleocene-Eocene carbonates of the Jaca-Pamplona basin, has been studied to evaluate the geochemistry and the temperature of the waters in the deep reservoir. These waters are of chloride-sodium ...

Correlated TEM-NanoSIMS investigation of foraminiferal metabolism

Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre

Foraminifera are ubiquitous eukaryotic protists inhabiting all types of marine environments. The chemical and isotopic compositions of their carbonate tests are commonly used as proxies for paleo-environmental conditions. However, while foraminifera repres ...

Anthropogenic- and natural sources of dust in peatland during the Anthropocene

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Mariusz Lamentowicz

As human impact have been increasing strongly over the last decades, it is crucial to distinguish human-induced dust sources from natural ones in order to define the boundary of a newly proposed epoch -the Anthropocene. Here, we track anthropogenic signatu ...

A unique coral biomineralization pattern has resisted 40 million years of major ocean chemistry change

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon

Today coral reefs are threatened by changes to seawater conditions associated with rapid anthropogenic global climate change. Yet, since the Cenozoic, these organisms have experienced major fluctuations in atmospheric CO2 levels (from greenhouse conditions ...

The Role of Ocean Space in Contemporary Urbanization

Nancy Raewyn Couling

Although the ocean is investigated by many scientific fields, research about ocean space is scarce. But energy production, extraction of resources, infrastructural and logistical development is increasing incrementally, resulting in a quantum shift in scal ...
