DOI: 10.1002/2017jd028004
Abstract: Coupling of urban land use land cover (LULC) and aerosol loading on rainfall around cities in the Gangetic Basin (GB) is examined here. Long-term observations illustrate more rainfall at urban core and climatological downwind regions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1397
Abstract: PREMISE Phylogenetic trees of bryophytes provide important evolutionary context for land plants. However, published inferences of overall embryophyte relationships vary considerably. We performed phylogenomic analyses of bryophytes and relatives using both mitochondrial and plastid gene sets,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4912
Abstract: Abstract All living organisms must eventually die, though in some cases their death can bring life‐giving opportunities. Few studies, however, have experimentally tested how animals capitalize on conspecific death and why this specialization would evolve.… read more here.
