Evaluation of CMIP5 Global Climate Models over the Volta Basin: Precipitation by Jacob Agyekum, Thompson Annor, Benjamin Lamptey, Emmannuel Quansah, Richard Yao Kuma Agyeman

“…The Community Earth System Model, version 1-Biogeochemistry (CESM1-BGC), the Community Climate System Model Version 4 (CCSM4), the Max Planck Institute Earth System Model, Medium Range (MPI-ESM-MR), the Norwegian Earth System Model (NorESM1-M), and the multimodel ensemble mean were able to simulate the observed climatological mean of the annual total precipitation well (average biases of 1.9% to 7.5%) and hence were selected for the seasonal and monthly timescales. …”

Climatic variability as a principal driver of primary production in the southernmost subalpine Rocky Mountain lake by Anna Shampain, Jill S. Baron, Peter R. Leavitt, Sarah A. Spaulding

“…We analyzed a sediment core representing a 270-year record from Santa Fe Lake, New Mexico, to constrain the southern margin of Rocky Mountain lakes and quantify patterns of change in lake biogeochemistry, production, and diatoms since 1750. Lake sediments were dated using 210Pb and analyzed for carbon (C), nitrogen (N), stable isotopes (δ13C, δ15N), diatoms, and phototrophic pigments. …”

Obliquity Dependence of Ocean Productivity and Atmospheric CO2 on Earth-like Worlds by Paul Lerner, Anastasia Romanou, Michael Way, Christopher Colose

“…In this study, we investigate the effects of obliquity on ocean NPP and the atmospheric CO _2 concentration using ROCKE-3D fully coupled to the NASA GISS Ocean Biogeochemistry Model. We find sea surface temperature primarily controls the NPP response, with both properties reaching a maximum at an obliquity of 45°. …”
