Although much of the energy gained by the climate system over the last century has been stored in the oceans, continental energy storage remains important to estimate the Earth’s energy imbalance and also because crucial positive climate feedback processes such as soil carbon and permafrost stability depend on continental energy storage. Here for the first time, 32 general circulation model sim...

Gallium nitride (GaN) is a tetrahedrally coordinated III-V compound semiconductor which has the hexagonal wurtzite structure with a wide band gap of 3.5 eV at 300 K. It is reported that a simple-metal-insulator-n-typeGaN diode produces blue electroluminescence. ' For this reason it has been studied as a material suitable for an effective optoelectronic device such as laser and light emitting di...
