Aircraft data show that ice particles are smaller and fall faster than models had assumed; correcting this issue in models improves simulation of deep, raining cloud systems.
Data from three Arctic measurement sites show how clouds, temperature, and water vapor impact the Arctic surface energy budget, which could enhance future warming and sea ice melt.
Water table depth and groundwater flow are vital to understanding the amount of water that plants transmit to the atmosphere.
Understanding interactions among organisms in complex microbial communities sheds new light on a globally significant environmental process.
Researchers discover the first CRISPR-Cas9 system in archaea, which may enable new technologies for biological research.
New database of DNA viruses and retroviruses debuts.
Feedbacks of clouds on climate change strongly influence the magnitude of global warming.
Understanding how brown rot fungi degrade wood could lead to new tools for more efficient biofuel production.
For the first time, scientists analyzed the genetic material of surface microbes that are colonizing the deep subsurface, where they are adapting and thriving.
An analysis suggests models overestimate soil’s potential for carbon sequestration.
