Indices of Climate Change for the United States
A framework is presented to quantify observed changes in climate within the contiguous United States through the development and analysis of two indices of climate change, a Cli...

Climate Response to Orbital Forcing Across the Oligocene-Miocene Boundary
Spectral analyses of an uninterrupted 5.5-million-year (My)–long chronology of late Oligocene–early Miocene climate and ocean carbon chemistry from two deep-sea cores recovered ...
Sensitivity of Eurasian Climate to Surface Uplift of the Tibetan Plateau
Experiments with climate models are used to illustrate how earth's climate could be expected to change if surface uplift occurred. The experiments contrast two climate simulatio...
A Holistic Approach to Marine Eco-Systems Biology
The structure, robustness, and dynamics of ocean plankton ecosystems remain poorly understood due to sampling, analysis, and computational limitations. The Tara Oceans consortiu...
Abrupt Climate Change and Transient Climates during the Paleogene: A Marine Perspective
Detailed investigations of high latitude sequences recently collected by the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) indicate that periods of rapid climate change often culminated in brief...
The Early Structural Evolution and Anisotropy of the Oceanic Upper Mantle
The dispersion of Love and Rayleigh waves in the period range 17–167 s is used to detect the change in the structure of the upper mantle as the age of the sea-floor increases aw...
Anisotropy of the Pacific upper mantle
Abstract : Seismic refraction measurements of the compressional wave velocity of the upper mantle, obtained in the northeast Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii, have sh...
CLIMATE-RELATED CHANGE IN AN INTERTIDAL COMMUNITY OVER SHORT AND LONG TIME SCALES
Changes in the abundance of macroinvertebrate species documented in a rocky intertidal community between surveys in 1931–1933 and 1993–1996 are consistent with the predicted eff...
Public health impacts of the severe haze in Equatorial Asia in September–October 2015: demonstration of a new framework for informing fire management strategies to reduce downwind smoke exposure
In September–October 2015, El Niño and positive Indian Ocean Dipole conditions set the stage for massive fires in Sumatra and Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo), leading to persiste...
Filtering of Milankovitch Cycles by Earth's Geography
Abstract Earth's land-sea distribution modifies the temperature response to orbitally induced perturbations of the seasonal insolation. We examine this modification in the frequ...
