TL;DR: Numerical experiments showed that climate becomes most unstable in intermediate glacial conditions associated with large changes in sea ice and the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, and model sensitivity experiments suggest that the prerequisite for the most frequent climate instability with bipolar seesaw pattern during the late Pleistocene era is associated with reduced atmospheric CO2 concentration via global cooling and sea ice formation in the North Atlantic.
Communities of algae and cyanobacteria on glaciers in west Greenland
TL;DR: In this article, communities of algae and cyanobacteria on two glaciers in west Greenland were analyzed and compared with the aim of explaining why the Qaanaaq Glacier has a dark-colored surface in satellite images.

Production of biological soil crusts in the early stage of primary succession on a high Arctic glacier foreland.
TL;DR: The results suggest that biological soil crust productivity plays an important role in the carbon cycle during the early stage of succession of the High Arctic glacier foreland, and is susceptible to temperature increases from global warming.

Recovery and reproduction of an Antarctic tardigrade retrieved from a moss sample frozen for over 30 years.
TL;DR: A considerable extension of the known length of long-term survival of tardigrades recorded in this study is interpreted as being associated with the minimum oxidative damage likely to have resulted from storage under stable frozen conditions.

TL;DR: The net primary production (NPP) of the moss in the snow-free season using the meteorological data obtained over 6 yr (1995–2000) was estimated using the relationships between abiotic factors and the CO2 exchange rate.
