Record grounded glacier retreat caused by an ice plain calving process

An Antarctic glacier retreated after the loss of landfast ice at a peak rate almost an order of magnitude faster than previously recorded because of buoyancy-driven ice calving, according to an analysis of geophysical data and satellite imagery.

Half a century of dynamic instability following the ocean-driven break-up of Wordie Ice Shelf

Historical images show that Antarctica’s Wordie Ice Shelf has disintegrated due to rising basal melt since the 1960s, causing varied glacier responses and highlighting the need for long-term observations to improve predictions of Antarctic ice loss.

Disturbance suppresses the aboveground carbon sink in North American boreal forests

Disturbance regimes from fire, drought, harvest and insects will probably intensify in the future and under climate change. Despite partial offsets from regrowth, disturbance from fire and harvest reduces carbon uptake and storage in boreal forests, impacting the strength of this carbon sink.

The timing of life-history events has a strong impact on ecosystems. Now, analysis of the phenology of temperate forests in the eastern US indicates that in the case of an earlier spring and a later autumn, carbon uptake (photosynthesis) increases considerably more than carbon release (respiration).

Deforestation contributes 6–17% of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. However, much uncertainty in the calculation of deforestation emissions stems from the inadequacy of forest carbon-density and deforestation data. Now an analysis provides the most-detailed estimate so far of the carbon density of vegetation and the associated carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation for ecosystems across the tropics.
