Seeing the hidden architecture of environmental interfaces by bioCP-SEM
How can we observe roots, microbes and soil particles together without disrupting their spatial relationships? This post shares the story behind bioCP-SEM, a workflow that combines biological electron microscopy with cross-sectional polishing to visualize intact plant–microbe–soil interfaces.
Increasing successive sudden stratospheric warmings linked to Arctic sea ice decline
Winter Arctic stratosphere is usually dominated by a strong polar vortex that helps to isolate cold air over the polar region. Sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) represent a dramatic breakdown of this vortex. New evidence shows increasing successive SSWs are linked to the declined sea ice trend.
