It Often Howls More than It Chugs: Wind versus Ship Noise Under Water in Australia’s Maritime Regions by Christine Erbe, Renee P. Schoeman, David Peel, Joshua N. Smith

“…In terms of anthropophony, shipping has been found to be the greatest (ubiquitous and continuous) contributor of low-frequency underwater noise in several northern hemisphere soundscapes. Our aim was to develop a model for ship noise in Australian waters, which could be used by industry and government to manage marine zones, their usage, stressors, and potential impacts. …”

Earth’s Albedo and Its Symmetry by George Datseris, Bjorn Stevens

“…We show that the surface albedo asymmetry is compensated by asymmetries between clouds over extra‐tropical oceans, with southern hemispheric storm‐tracks being 11% cloudier than their northern hemisphere counterparts. This again indicates that, assuming the albedo symmetry is not a result of chance, its mechanism likely operates on large temporal and spatial scales.…”

Localization of a Pathogenicity Gene in Ophiostoma novo-ulmi and Evidence That It May Be Introgressed from O. ulmi by Abdelali Et-Touil, Clive M. Brasier, Louis Bernier

“…Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, the principal agent of Dutch elm disease, has recently replaced another species of Dutch elm disease pathogen, O. ulmi, across much of the Northern Hemisphere. Field inoculations of the moderately resistant elms Ulmus procera and Ulmus × Commelin were carried out with progeny of a genetic cross between AST27, a Eurasian (EAN) O. novo-ulmi isolate with an unusually low level of pathogenicity, and H327, a highly aggressive EAN isolate. …”
