Mattesini, A. B. Belonoshko, H. Tkalčić et al.     Recent global expansion of seismic data motivated a number of seismological studies of the Earth's inner core that proposed the existence of increasingly complex structure and …             How metalliferous brines line Mexican epithermal veins with silver ▶     Jamie J. Wilkinson, Stuart F. Simmons, Barry Stoffell     We determined the composition of ~30-m.y.-old solutions extracted from fluid inclusions in one of the world's largest and richest silver ore deposits at Fresnillo, Mexico. Silver …             Climate-change impact on the 20th-century relationship between the Southern Annular Mode and global mean temperature ▶     Guojian Wang, Wenju Cai     The positive phase of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) increases global mean temperature, and contributes to a negative phase of the Southern Annular Mode (SAM), the …             Early maximum extent of paleoglaciers from Mediterranean mountains during the last glaciation ▶     D. Domínguez-Villar, R. M. Carrasco, J. Pedraza et al.     Mountain glaciers respond directly to changes in precipitation and temperature, thus their margin extent is a high-sensitivity climate proxy. Here, we present a robust 10Be …             Chemical and natural stressors combined: from cryptic effects to population extinction ▶     André Gergs, Armin Zenker, Volker Grimm et al.     In addition to natural stressors, populations are increasingly exposed to chemical pollutants released into the environment. We experimentally demonstrate the loss of resilience …             An inorganic CO2 diffusion and dissolution process explains negative CO2 fluxes in saline/alkaline soils ▶     Jie Ma, Zhong-Yuan Wang, Bryan A. Stevenson et al.     An 'anomalous' negative flux, in which carbon dioxide (CO2) enters rather than is released from the ground, was studied in a saline/alkaline soil. Soil sterilization disclosed an …             Sea Surface Temperature of the mid-Piacenzian Ocean: A Data-Model Comparison ▶     Harry J. Dowsett, Kevin M. Foley, Danielle K. Stoll et al.     The mid-Piacenzian climate represents the most geologically recent interval of long-term average warmth relative to the last million years, and shares similarities with the …             Microbial Oxidation of Fe2+ and Pyrite Exposed to Flux of Micromolar H2O2 in Acidic Media ▶     Yingqun Ma, Chuxia Lin     At an initial pH of 2, while abiotic oxidation of aqueous Fe2 was enhanced by a flux of H2O2 at micromolar concentrations, bio-oxidation of aqueous Fe2 could be impeded due to …             Committed changes in tropical tree cover under the projected 21st century climate change ▶     Zhenzhong Zeng, Shilong Piao, Anping Chen et al.     Warming and drought pose a serious threat to tropical forest. Yet the extent of this threat is uncertain, given the lack of methods to evaluate the forest tree cover changes under …                 WE launched in 2011 YOU published 2000 papers with us OUR impact factor is 2.927* Discover what we can do together. nature.com/scientificreports *2012 Journal Citation Reports® (Thomson Reuters, 2013)         • Careers & Jobs           naturejobs.com Science jobs of the week       Postdoctoral Researcher     University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus            Scientific assistant     CSCC, Jena University Hospital            Post-Doctoral Research Associate     Queen Mary University London            PhD position     The University of Hong Kong            Postdoctoral associate     University of Louisville School of Medicine            Project Coordinator     University of Mississippi School of Pharmacy            Faculty of Biology     University of Duisburg-Essen            Postdoctoral Positions     Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry            Postdoctoral Fellow     Saskatchewan Cancer Agency            Research Technician     Institute of Molecular Pathology (IMP)          No matter what your career stage, student, postdoc or senior scientist, you will find articles on naturejobs.com to help guide you in your science career.
