Downsystem grain-size trends and mass balance of an ancient wave-influenced sediment routing system: Middle Jurassic Brent Delta, northern North Sea, offshore UK and Norway by Ikenna C. Okwara, Gary J. Hampson, Alexander C. Whittaker, Gareth G. Roberts

“…Few of the Brent Group sediment routing systems exhibit the downsystem-fining grain-size trend predicted by sediment mass balance theory. Deviations from this reference trend reflect: (1) sparse sampling of channelised fluvial and fluvio-tidal sand bodies in upsystem locations; (2) preferential trapping of sand in underfilled antecedent and syn-depositional, half-graben depocentres in genetic sequences J22 and J32; and (3) nearshore retention of sand by shoaling waves in wave-dominated shoreface and barrier-strandplain systems. …”

Drought Adaptation and Responses of Stipa krylovii Vary Among Different Regions: Evidence From Growth, Physiology, and RNA‐Seq Transcriptome Analysis by Ziqing Gong, Zehang Qu, Yulin Liu, Tao Wang, Baijie Fan, Anzhi Ren, Yubao Gao, Nianxi Zhao

“…ABSTRACT In the context of global climate change, exploring how plant adaptation and responses to drought vary among different regions are crucial to understanding and predicting its geographic distribution. In this study, to explore the drought adaptation and responses of the dominant species in the semi‐arid Eurasian Steppes and their differences among the different regions in terms of growth, physiology, and RNA‐seq transcriptome, Stipa krylovii was chosen as the study material, and a seed source (three regions: eastern, middle, and western regions) × soil moisture treatment (three treatments: control, light drought, and heavy drought) two‐factor experiment was conducted. (1) Four growth traits for individuals from the western region were significantly lower than those from the other two regions. …”

Unburned habitat essential for amphibian breeding persistence following wildfire by Larissa L. Bailey, Richard Henderson, Wendy A. Estes-Zumpf, Charles C. Rhoades, Ellie Miller, Dominique Lujan, Erin Muths

“…Importantly, we found that remotely sensed data typically produced to predict flooding and erosion at broad (catchment) scales is a poor representation of the amount and variation in soil burn severity surrounding small habitat features, suggesting that additional field sampling is necessary to understand wildfire responses for species that rely on these small habitat features. …”
