The genome and population genomics of allopolyploid Coffea arabica reveal the diversification history of modern coffee cultivars

Chromosome-level genome assemblies of allotetraploid Coffea arabica and representatives of its diploid progenitors, Coffea eugenioides and Coffea canephora, provide insights into Arabica’s diversification history.

Three decades of high-resolution coastal sea surface temperatures reveal more than warming

A detailed assessment of near-shore temperature changes is needed for improved forecasts of the consequences of coastal warming. Here, changes in coastal sea surface temperature are estimated, showing that although 71% of the world's coastlines are warming, the rates of change have varied spatially.

The unquantified mass loss of Northern Hemisphere marine-terminating glaciers from 2000–2020

As glaciers terminate into the ocean, mass is lost through frontal ablation where the ice meets the ocean. Here the authors estimate decadal frontal ablation from 2000 to 2020 of 1496 glaciers in the Northern Hemisphere, and find that frontal ablation makes up 79% of ice discharge to the ocean.

Postglacial viability and colonization in North America’s ice-free corridor

During much of the last ice age, continental ice sheets prevented humans from migrating into North America from Siberia; an environmental reconstruction of the corridor that opened up between the Cordilleran and Laurentide ice sheets reveals that it would have been inhospitable to the initial colonizing humans, who therefore probably entered North America by a different route.

Climate pacing of millennial sea-level change variability in the central and western Mediterranean

How sea-level in the western Mediterranean reacts to climate changes is not well known. Here, the authors present a regional reconstruction and show that temperatures influenced sea-level change rates during the Holocene, while recent sea-level rise is happening faster than during any other period of the last 4000 years.

Greenhouse gas mitigation can reduce sea-ice loss and increase polar bear persistence

The dramatic loss of Arctic sea ice with climate change has led to the prediction of a tipping point beyond which ice loss is irreversible and polar bear habitat will be catastrophically lost. By contrast, this study shows a linear relationship between temperature and sea-ice coverage that overcomes the albedo effect that would cause a tipping point. As a result, reducing greenhouse gas emissions can have a positive effect on polar bear populations.

Applying the ‘CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance’ to ecology and biodiversity research

Indigenous Peoples are increasingly being sought out for research partnerships that incorporate Indigenous Knowledges into ecology research. In such research partnerships, it is essential that Indigenous data are cared for ethically and responsibly. Here we outline how the ‘CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance’ can sow community ethics into disciplines that are inundated with extractive helicopter research practices, and we provide standardized practices for evolving data and research landscapes.

Here, Almécija et al. show that hominin and modern great ape femura diverged from an ancestral morphology and that Orrorinis intermediate between Miocene apes and australopiths.

South Greenland ice-sheet collapse during Marine Isotope Stage 11

The isotopic composition of glacial sediment discharged into the ocean from south Greenland is used to identify a major reduction in the amount of that sediment derived from erosion of Greenland’s Precambrian bedrock, probably indicating the cessation of subglacial erosion and sediment transport during Marine Isotope Stage 11 as a result of the almost complete deglaciation of south Greenland.
