New method helps to study diurnal variation of leaf stomatal response of tropical trees
The unified stomatal optimization (USO) series models have shown obvious biases in predicting stomatal conductance (gsw) of tropical rainforest trees, especially under low vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and irradiance conditions. ...

High-precision measurements challenge our understanding of Cepheids
"Classical Cepheids" are a type of pulsating star that rhythmically brighten and dim over time. These pulsations help astronomers measure vast distances across space, which makes Cepheids crucial "standard candles" that help ...

Study finds Arctic warming three-fold compared to global patterns
Global warming is an omnipresent issue, with widespread initiatives to draw down emissions and mitigate against the International Panel on Climate Change's worse-case scenario predictions of 3.2°C of warming by 2100 (relative ...
Machine learning speeds up climate model simulations at finer resolutions, making them usable on local levels
Climate models are a key technology in predicting the impacts of climate change. By running simulations of the Earth's climate, scientists and policymakers can estimate conditions like sea level rise, flooding, and rising ...
