Coupled Isotopes Reveal Sedimentary Sources of Rare Metal Granites
Using coupled isotopes, a new study shows that a class of economically important granites are derived by sediment melting without mantle input.
Coverage Factors Affect Urban CO2 Monitoring from Space
Orbital mechanics and environmental factors limiting the ability of Orbiting Carbon Observatory missions to collect data in space and time affect city-level monitoring, reporting, and…
Kuroshio Intrusions into Luzon Strait Increase Chlorophyll
Using in-situ observational data, scientists reveal that Kuroshio intrusions through the Luzon Strait increase small phytoplankton in the South China Sea.
High Relief, Low Relief — Glaciers Do It All
Contrary to conventional wisdom that glaciers just carve landscapes, they can also form low-relief surfaces by sheltering rock from erosion, enriching understanding of how mountain…
Seasonal Iron Cycle and Production in the Subantarctic Southern Ocean
Long-term monitoring at a site in the subantarctic region south of Australia combined with ship-based observations reveals three distinct phases between cycles of phytoplankton productivity…
