Shifting seasonality of annual growth through ontogeny for red deer at northern latitudes

Summertime ozone at northern mid-latitudes

Climatological evaporation seasonality in the northern Red Sea

[1] The dynamic and thermodynamic processes that underlie the exceptionally high evaporation over the northern Red Sea are examined. Through a combination of data analysis and a simple numerical model we show that the key boundary layer dehumidifier is ageostrophic cross-channel sea breezes. This circulation develops semidiurnally in response to thermal gradients across the Red Sea’s coasts bec...

Carnivores in Northern Latitudes

The first mammals were probably nocturnal (McNab 1978; Kemp 1982) and many extant orders of small mammals have retained this trait. This behaviour is presumably due to the measure of protection from predation that darkness provides (Crawford 1934; Falls 1968; Daan and Aschoff 1982). Large, herbivorous mammals are less restricted to the nocturnal phase (e.g. Bunnell and Harestad 1990) and have b...
