"Decaying Beech Tree: Fungal Infection and Forest Dynamics"
"A century-old beech tree infected by southern bracket fungus (Ganoderma australe) six years ago is nearing collapse, illustrating the fungus's role in woodland thinning and ecological succession, possibly accelerated by past human interaction."

"Record Low Planetary Albedo in 2023 Contributed to 0.2°C Additional Warming"
"A record low in planetary albedo in 2023, caused by a decrease in low-level clouds primarily in northern mid-latitudes, the tropics, and the Atlantic, contributed to 0.2°C of additional warming beyond greenhouse gas and El Niño effects; researchers suggest a potential feedback loop between warming ...

Ocean Salinity: A Dynamic Equilibrium of Mineral Inputs and Outputs
The salinity of the ocean results from a continuous process where rivers carry dissolved minerals from land to the ocean, and hydrothermal vents and underwater volcanoes add more, maintaining a dynamic equilibrium over millions of years, resulting in an average of 3.5% salinity, although geographic ...

Ocean Cloud Cover Decline Amplified 2023's Record Heat
A new study reveals that record low levels of low-lying clouds over oceans significantly amplified 2023's record heat, contributing to a decreased planetary albedo and increased sunlight absorption, raising concerns about future warming projections.

"Arctic Ocean Could Be Ice-Free by 2027: New Study"
"A new study using 300 climate models predicts the Arctic Ocean could be ice-free as early as late summer 2027, much sooner than previously anticipated, due to accelerated ice melt caused by greenhouse gas emissions; this will disrupt ecosystems and open new shipping routes."
