Surface heat flux changes and feedbacks triggered by sea-ice loss are critical to explain the magnitude and seasonality of Arctic amplification. Tropospheric responses to Arctic sea-ice loss that are robust across models and separable from internal variability have been revealed, including local warming and moistening, equatorward shifts of the jet stream and storm track in the North Atlantic, and fewer and milder cold extremes over North America. Whilst generally small compared to simulated internal variability, the response to Arctic sea-ice loss comprises a non-negligible contribution to projected climate change. For example, Arctic sea-ice loss is essential to explain projected North Atlantic jet trends and their uncertainty. Model diversity in the simulated responses has provided pathways to observationally constrain the real-world response.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"7 1","pages":"23"},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12779564/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145951486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we present 1,487 chamber measurements of N2O fluxes collected over three snow-free seasons in a subarctic thawing permafrost peatland. Measurements were taken under both light (with sunlight) and dark (without sunlight) conditions. Under light conditions, fluxes were mostly positive, indicating net emissions, and increased with plant activity and cooler soil temperatures. Under dark conditions, fluxes were consistently negative, indicating net uptake, and linked to soil moisture and green plant cover. The contrast between light and dark was clear and consistent. Overall, the ecosystem acted as a small but continuous N2O sink. Yet, localised areas showed strong N2O production potential. These results highlight the critical role of light and plant-soil interactions in regulating N2O fluxes, with implications for improving Arctic greenhouse gas budget estimates.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"7 1","pages":"471"},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13222127/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148142894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Past high-CO2 periods in Earth's history serve as an important prospect to improve our understanding of fire regime changes and linked ecosystem responses. Here, we report wildfires in Late Cretaceous temperate rainforests and wetlands that existed only ~ 900 km away from the South Pole. Multiple proxy evidence from macro- and microcharcoal, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, maceral analysis, inertinite reflectance and charcoal morphology document frequent, low-temperature surface fires. The fire regime changes closely coincide with a hydroseral succession (i.e., terrestrialisation) from swamp forests to the earliest known coal-forming Sphagnum-peat bog from southern high latitudes. Despite fundamental differences in atmospheric and floristic composition, fire and vegetation in 90-million-year-old Cretaceous forests and peatlands appear to have interacted in ways remarkably similar to modern ecosystems, with recurrent burning maintaining open vegetation structure and promoting peatland development. Our deep-time study establishes fire as an intrinsic driver of high-latitude wetland ecosystems and provides critical constraints on fire regime responses and ecosystem resilience under warm, elevated-CO₂ greenhouse conditions.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"7 1","pages":"715"},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13549950/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148910938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we address this knowledge gap by integrating multiscale remote sensing techniques within a unique long-term climate manipulation experiment. Two decades of in situ climate warming and changes in monsoonal rainfall drove a major shift in biocrust community composition, including a ~ 27% decrease in fractional coverage of late-successional mosses and a ~ 36% increase in fractional cover of early-successional, lightly-pigmented cyanobacteria. This community shift, in-turn, resulted in a ~ 6.3% reduction in photosynthetic potential, ~14.1% increase in surface brightness, ~15.2% decrease in surface moisture, and a ~ 1.5% or ~0.3 °C increase in surface temperature under clear sky daytime conditions for every 10% increase in the relative cover of lightly-pigmented cyanobacteria. Our findings are evidence of a biocrust degradation climate warming amplification feedback, whereby climate warming drives biocrust functional degradation and a net reduction in climate mitigation potential, which further drives warming. This apparent warming amplification feedback is currently missing from process-based models, and thus current climate projections might underestimate the rate of climate warming across global drylands.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"7 1","pages":"775"},"PeriodicalIF":9.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13593566/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149024025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analysis of these fluids is possible if they remain entrapped in the diamond during growth, but such fluid inclusions are rarely observed in gem-quality stones.

Using micro-Raman spectroscopy and Laser-Ablation Inductively-Coupled-Plasma-Mass-Spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) depth-profiling, we obtained compositional data from silicic fluid rims surrounding both silicate and non-silicate inclusions. Slow LA-ICPMS depth-profiling at the diamond-inclusion interface enabled differentiating the respective diamond/fluid-rim/mineral-inclusion contributions, allowing detection of Sr, Nb, Ba, La, Ce, Nd, and Th from the fluid rim. Here, we compare silicic fluid rims and other mantle-derived fluids/melts based on trace element ratios relative to the primitive mantle.

Conventional wisdom has long regarded the impact of minerals as a byproduct of their role in providing nutrients and energy to organisms, largely overlooking the significance of non-nutritive and energy-neutral mineral species. In this study, we explore the influence of minerals on microbial development in nutrient- and energy-rich media through a serial passage evolution experiment. Our results show both the inert mineral kaolinite and the energy/nutrient-rich olivine exert evident effects on the microorganisms. Both minerals induced substantial shifts in community structure. Notably, kaolinite and olivine selectively enriched specific taxa, including Acinetobacter and Clostridium. Metatranscriptomic analyses revealed substantial changes in gene expression, with both minerals enriching unique metabolic pathways. Interestingly, kaolinite specifically enriched pathways related to streptomycin biosynthesis. Both minerals stimulated the expression of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), particularly those associated with multidrug and macrolide resistance. Furthermore, both minerals induced the upregulation of genes involved in the degradation of complex organic matter, highlighting their potential role in soil carbon cycling. These findings underscore the intricate interplay between minerals and microbes, challenging the conventional notion that minerals function solely as material sources for organism growth. Inert mineral kaolinite and the energy/nutrient-rich olivine change microbial community structure, stimulate the antibiotic resistance genes, and regulate the degradation of complex organic matter, according to a serial passage evolution experiment in nutrient and energy-rich media.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-025-02429-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147886245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The connected nature of the marine environment suggests that coordinated actions by countries sharing an ocean border may provide more effective pollution control than unilateral actions by any one country.

Here we present a modelling framework to determine the potential economic benefits of cooperative marine plastic pollution management. The framework integrates an estimated plastic transfer matrix from a particle tracking model with game theory to derive the economic benefits of international cooperation for 16 countries bordering the North Atlantic Ocean. Subject to modelling uncertainties, a fully cooperative agreement yields aggregate annual net benefits of around $36 billion and a 64% reduction in emissions. The net benefits of cooperation persist over alternative scenarios and considering the impact of uncertainties but vary in magnitude and distribution.","PeriodicalId":10530,"journal":{"name":"Communications Earth & Environment","volume":"6 1","pages":"134"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11845319/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143482407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
