Much uncertainty exists about the state of the oceanic and atmospheric circulation in the tropical Pacific over the last glacial cycle. Studies have been hampered by the fact that sediment cores suitable for study were concentrated in the western and eastern parts of the tropical Pacific, with little information from...

Altimeter sea surface height (SSH) fields are analyzed to define and discuss the seasonal circulation
over the wide continental shelf in the SW Atlantic Ocean (27°–43°S) during 2001–2012. Seasonal variability
is low south of the Rio de la Plata (RdlP), where winds and currents remain equatorward for most of
the...

The abundance of microbial life and the sources of energy necessary for deep subsurface microbial communities remain enigmatic. Here we investigate deep microbial processes and their potential relationships to tectonic events in sediments from the Nankai Trough offshore Japan, drilled and sampled during IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Expedition 316....

Time-series observations are critical to understand the structure, function, and dynamics of marine ecosystems. The Hawaii Ocean Time-series program has maintained near-monthly sampling at Station ALOHA (22°45′N, 158°00′W) in the oligotrophic North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) since 1988 and has identified ecosystem variability over seasonal to interannual timescales. To further...

Interpretation of ice core trace gas records depends on an accurate understanding of the
processes that smooth the atmospheric signal in the firn. Much work has been done to understand the
processes affecting air transport in the open pores of the firn, but a paucity of data from air trapped...

BACKGROUND: On the basis of the 2014 guidelines for hypertension therapy in the United States,
many eligible adults remain untreated. We projected the cost-effectiveness of treating
hypertension in U.S. adults according to the 2014 guidelines.
METHODS: We used the Cardiovascular Disease Policy Model to simulate drug-treatment and
monitoring costs, costs...

Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis involves ~200 assembly
factors, but how these contribute to ribosome
maturation is poorly understood. Here, we
identify a network of factors on the nascent 60S subunit
that actively remodels preribosome structure. At its hub is
Rsa4, a direct substrate of the force-generating ATPase
Rea1. We show that...

We use autonomous gas measurements to examine the metabolic balance (photosynthesis
minus respiration) of coastal Antarctic waters during the spring/summer growth season. Our observations
capture the development of a massive phytoplankton bloom and reveal striking variability in pCO₂ and
biological oxygen saturation (ΔO₂/Ar) resulting from large shifts in community metabolism...

Climate-driven changes in biotic interactions can profoundly alter ecological
communities, particularly when they impact foundation species. In marine systems,
changes in herbivory and the consequent loss of dominant habitat forming species can
result in dramatic community phase shifts, such as from coral to macroalgal
dominance when tropical fish herbivory decreases,...
