Current Editorial
Sustaining the World of Nature in the Face of Growing Human Pressures: Is it even possible? And, if so ... How is it to be done?
Subject Index Summaries
Long-Term Studies (Woody Plants - General): What is the long-term equilibrium growth response of long-lived woody plants to atmospheric CO2 enrichment? The only way to address this question and have any confidence in the answer is to actually conduct long-term experiments under as natural conditions as possible.
Permafrost: Is global warming melting away earth's permafrost at an accelerated and unprecedented pace, thereby releasing ever more CO2 into the air as a consequence of the decomposition of vast amounts of organic matter that were previously locked away, i.e., frozen, in both space and time? Computer models and climate alarmists say yes. Real-world data say no.
Current Journal Reviews
Intimations of Imminent Global Cooling: This is the third Journal Review we have published in recent weeks that describes real-world observations which suggest that the earth is about to commence a multi-decadal cooling trend.
ENSO in a Warmer World: Battle of the Models Resolved by Real-World Data: Would El Niņos become more frequent and intense in a CO2-warmed world? Opposing models duke it out. And the winner is ...
A 125-Year History of Black Carbon Aerosols: What does the study of this old-fashioned air pollutant suggest about the way we should be approaching the "problem" of anthropogenic CO2 emissions?
Effects of Elevated CO2 and Temperature on Transpiration in Douglas-fir Seedlings: How would long-term exposure to both elevated CO2 and elevated air temperature impact transpirational water loss from needles of Douglas-fir seedlings?
Effects of Elevated CO2 and O3 on Pine Needle Litter Decomposition: Will increasing atmospheric ozone concentrations interact with rising CO2 concentrations to affect decomposition rates of pine needles?
