Unveiling the Dynamics of Interaction Between Mars' Magnetic Field and the Solar Wind
The interplay between solar winds and planetary magnetic fields is pivotal for the evolution of planetary atmospheres and their habitability. Here we focus on how solar wind interacts with Mars.
Toward understanding Energy Transfer of Imbalanced Alfvénic Turbulence in the Heliosphere
We address a fundamental question in imbalanced Alfvénic turbulence: the mechanism of energy transfer between scales. Our study, combining observations and simulations, reveals that coherent interactions between Alfvén waves and co-propagating anomalous fluctuations play a key role in this process.
Plants that live longer mast stronger
The benefits of masting are well-documented, but the costs are underexplored. Here, we found that plant traits promoting long lifespan are associated with stronger masting, supporting the prediction that masting is more common in long-lived species where costs of skipped reproduction are reduced.
Warming-induced vapor pressure deficit suppression of vegetation growth diminished in northern peatlands
Growing vapor pressure deficit inhibits vegetation growth. Chen et al. reported that this inhibition diminished in northern peatlands, as plant growth was not constrained by water even in the presence of a warming-induced water pressure deficit.
Unveiling Earth's Ancient Mysteries: The Astonishing Rhynie Chert Fossils
We invite you to imagine a world over 400 million years ago, a time when Life on Earth was vastly different from what we know today. The Rhynie Chert, an iconic geological site in Scotland, offers a captivating glimpse into this distant past, holding secrets of an ancient terrestrial environment.
Relationship between Gravitational field, irreversibility, Bohr’s Hydrogen Model and Schrödinger’s equation
Since there are no absolutely isolated systems, we made the crucial relationship between gravitational field, irreversibility, Bohr’s hydrogen model and Schrödinger’s equation to unify different natural laws.
