  • Influence of Current Climate, Historical Climate Stability and Topography on Species Richness and Endemism in Mesoamerican Geophyte Plants
    Influence of current climate, historical climate stability and topography on species richness and endemism in Mesoamerican geophyte plants Victoria Sosa* and Israel Loera* Biología Evolutiva, Instituto de Ecologia AC, Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico * These authors contributed equally to this work. ABSTRACT Background. A number of biotic and abiotic factors have been proposed as drivers of geographic variation in species richness. As biotic elements, inter-specific interactions are the most widely recognized. Among abiotic factors, in particular for plants, climate and topographic variables as well as their historical variation have been correlated with species richness and endemism. In this study, we determine the extent to which the species richness and endemism of monocot geophyte species in Mesoamerica is predicted by current climate, historical climate stability and topography. Methods. Using approximately 2,650 occurrence points representing 507 geophyte taxa, species richness (SR) and weighted endemism (WE) were estimated at a geographic scale using grids of 0.5 × 0.5 decimal degrees resolution using Mexico as the geographic extent. SR and WE were also estimated using species distributions inferred from ecological niche modeling for species with at least five spatially unique occurrence points. Current climate, current to Last Glacial Maximum temperature, precipitation stability and topographic features were used as predictor variables on multiple spatial regression analyses (i.e., spatial autoregressive models, SAR) using the estimates of SR and WE as response variables. The standardized coefficients of the predictor variables that were significant in the regression models were utilized to understand the observed patterns of species richness and endemism.

The new Sioux Falls office builds on McGough’s strong history of successfully managing a wide variety of projects throughout the Dakotas. The recently completed Terex Manufacturing project located in Watertown, SD, won a 2020 ENR Best Project Award. The newly completed Block 9 project has transformed the skyline of downtown Fargo. McGough also has completed successful projects for many of the most well-established organizations in the Dakotas, including Sanford Health, the North Dakota University System, Prairie Lakes Healthcare and Concordia University. Clark Hagen will lead the office as General Manager. Clark has been with McGough for five years, working in the Fargo office as a member of the senior leadership team. Clark and his colleagues are in the process of building out the company’s South Dakota-based team. McGough’s Sioux Falls office, located at 114 N. Main Avenue, will formally celebrate its opening with an open house in the Spring of 2021.

Balkanizing the Balkans Paul L. Atwood This article seeks to place the North Atlantic Treaty Organization 's Kosovo war in the context of the larger issue of NATO expansion. It argues that the question of ethnic cleansing in that province of Serbia was largely exploited by the United States, the creator and most powerful member of the alliance, to break up the former Yugoslavia, to divide it, and to make it more manageable for Western interests. In the guise of stopping Serb repression, NATO seized an opportunity to build more bases throughout southeastern Europe, including those being constructed in NATO's newest member states, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Hungary. These actions are deeply threatening to Russia, positioned as it is in either the former USSR or in former Warsaw Pact nations.

  • For Quaternary Science Reviews Manuscript Draft Manuscript Number
    Elsevier Editorial System(tm) for Quaternary Science Reviews Manuscript Draft Manuscript Number: Title: RAPID DEGLACIATION IN NORTHWEST GREENLAND CIRCA 11 ka BP Article Type: Rapid Communication Corresponding Author: Ms. Lee B Corbett, Corresponding Author's Institution: University of Vermont First Author: Lee B Corbett Order of Authors: Lee B Corbett; Paul R Bierman; Jason P Briner; Joseph A Graly; Thomas A Neumann; Dylan H Rood; Robert C Finkel Abstract: In this study, we use a rare isotope, 10Be, to determine when and how rapidly a sparsely studied region of the northwest Greenland coast was deglaciated. Despite the fact that such information is critical to understanding future behavior of the Greenland Ice Sheet, little is known about the timing or rate of ice loss in northwest Greenland, the region with the most marine-based ice. Here, we report the concentration of cosmogenic 10Be in 12 boulders and show that outlet glaciers likely retreated 100 km in no more than a few hundred years at the end of the Last Glacial Maximum around 11,000 years ago. This abrupt loss of ice was forced by post-glacial warming and sea level rise, which together destabilized fjord-based outlet glaciers. Our results suggest an intimate relationship between warming climate, increasing sea level, and ice loss rate, a positive feedback process that could lead to a significant decrease in global ice cover on human time scales. Our work demonstrates that rapid loss of ice in Greenland has occurred in the past; because anthropogenic warming and associated sea level rise have been widely predicted for the future, it is crucial to understand the rate and distribution of these processes.
