Ice sheets big and small - Nature Geoscience
2+ hour, 23+ min ago (112+ words) Ice sheets can be extremely sensitive, or remarkably resilient, to environmental perturbations. Reconstructions of past ice sheet variability help identify what controls their stability and how they may fare in a warming future. These studies highlight how ice sheet behaviour…...

Stratigraphic and structural architecture of the inner ramp carbonates in the Northern Galala Plateau, Egypt: synergizing remote sensing and field data - Scientific Reports
5+ day, 18+ hour ago (1475+ words) The Northern Galala Plateau is located approximately 800 km north of the African craton and has been influenced by tectonic uplift along the Syrian Arc fold belt. Such uplift has created diverse sedimentary environments, including inner ramp, mid-ramp, and outer ramp…...

Inversion modelling shows increasing hydrofluorocarbon emissions - Nature Geoscience
6+ day, 18+ hour ago (316+ words) Top-down inversion modelling, coupled with data from ten observing stations across China, reveals that the country's emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) grew during the period 20112021. However, over a similar period, non-Annex 1 countries (mostly developing countries under the UN climate framework), excluding…...
Genomic structural equation modeling reveals shared genetic structure of cardiac function and structure-function association studies of CLCNKA mutations - Scientific Reports
2+ week, 7+ hour ago (457+ words) We implemented a multilevel strategy adjustment for the constructed genomic structural equation model. This included first adjusting the p values for correlation tests (p values" To identify the most likely causal variants associated with cardiac function, we employed Sum of…...
