Un nuevo estudio separa las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero provenientes de la agricultura, mostrando cómo lo que comemos calienta el planeta.
Modeling
Going with the Flow: New Tool Improves Sea Level Projections
By bringing together multiple data sources a new statistical method aims to improve the accuracy with which we might predict future ice melt in Greenland.
Greening of Loess Plateau Increases Water Yield
Vegetation restoration over the Chinese Loess Plateau can enhance atmospheric moisture convergence, increasing the precipitation enough to compensate for the vegetation water consumption.
Exoplanets May Support Life in the Terminator Zone
A new study finds that the intersection between a searing dayside and a freezing nightside could be habitable.
Carbon Sink Models Need Nitrogen
If terrestrial biosphere models don’t include nitrogen, they will overestimate carbon sequestration.
Carbon In, Carbon Out: Balancing the Ocean’s Books
Scientists have developed a consensus guide of standard protocols for how best to measure oceanic primary productivity, a key component in Earth’s carbon cycle.
Wind Shear Instabilities Emit Gravity Waves
A new study shows that atmospheric gravity waves can be generated by the Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in the wind shear layer.
Food Production Could Add 1°C of Global Warming by 2100
A new study teases apart greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, showing how the food we eat heats up the world.
New Machine Learning Parameterization Tested on Atmospheric Model
For the first time, a neural network parameterization of subgrid momentum transport is developed by training on a coarse-grained high-resolution atmospheric simulation.
Climate Change Knocks It Out of the Park
A climate curve ball: Short-term gains in home runs might soon give way to long-term problems when it gets too hot to play.
