  • Anthropogenic Warming Leads Record-breaking Northwest Pacific Marine Heatwave about 43 Times More Likely
    Extreme event attribution can determine whether anthropogenic global warming made an event/type of event more likely and by how much. In the past years, studies have already connected global warming to changes in territorial extremes, however, few studi...

  • Weathering Input from South Asia to Indian Ocean Has Been Enhanced since the Late Eocene
    The Earth's climate experienced drastic changes during the Cenozoic, characterized by global cooling and development of polar ice sheets. A gradual decrease in atmospheric CO2 concentration was considered to be the key factor in this long-term cooling. ...

  • Marine Sediment Tells Story of East Asian Rainfall over the Past 400,000 Years
    For a long time, the periodicity of Quaternary Asian low-latitude hydroclimate cyclicity has been attributed to insolation forcing, which is in contrast with dominant ice-sheet and CO2 controls identified in mid-high-latitude regions. However, due to in...

  • Asiatic Hard Clams Can Synthesize Antibiotic
    The clams and other invertebrates often live in habitats with dense bacterial populations, despite lacking adaptive, lymphocyte-based immune systems. How clams resist bacterial pathogens in the environment is unclear.
