Greenhouse gas emissions have led to substantial warming. However, the observed warming in Europe is stronger than typically projected in regional climate models. A new study shows that this is due to insufficient consideration of changes in aerosols in the models and implies higher warming than expected for the future.
Organisms exposed to consistent interactions across generations often coevolve to optimize their coexistence. However, it is not known if plants coexisting over multiple generations in a community evolve to avoid competition and boost individual fitness. A study conducted by researchers at the Agricultural Ecology group at ETH Zurich tackles this question.
