Scaling through ocean carbon

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 04 October 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00840-yMarine microbes have shaped the climate throughout Earth’s history. Integration of microbial carbon cycling dynamics across a range of spatial scales will be critical for understanding the ocean’s impact in light of a changing climate.

Minimizing trade-offs for sustainable irrigation

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 30 September 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00830-0A more comprehensive understanding of the role of irrigation in coupled natural–human systems is needed to minimize the negative consequences for climate, ecosystems and public health.

Explosive or effusive style of volcanic eruption determined by magma storage conditions

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 30 September 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00827-9The effusive or explosive nature of a volcanic eruption may be determined by the crystallinity, water content and presence of exsolved volatiles in subvolcanic chambers, according to analysis of the pre-eruptive storage conditions of global volcanoes.

Delving in to deep time

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 30 September 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00831-zWe chat with Vincent Ialenti, a University of Southern California Berggruen Fellow, about thinking on geological timescales. Ialenti’s recent book, Deep Time Reckoning (MIT Press, 2020), chronicles his anthropological work on the institution responsible for the long-term...

Winter isn’t what it used to be

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 30 September 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00832-yNorthern autumns and winters are getting warmer, and their weather is also getting blander. Observations and climate model simulations reveal that human activities have managed to make today’s weather measurably different than it was only a generation ago.

Decreasing subseasonal temperature variability in the northern extratropics attributed to human influence

Nature Geoscience, Published online: 30 September 2021; doi:10.1038/s41561-021-00826-wAnthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions are responsible for the observed decrease in subseasonal temperature variability in the northern extratropics, according to an attribution analysis using a large ensemble of climate model simulations.
