Impact of the Westerly Jet on Rainfall/Runoff in the Source Region of the Yangtze River during the Flood Season by Xin Lai, Yuanfa Gong, Sixian Cen, Hui Tian, Heng Zhang

“…Furthermore, the convergence (divergence) anomalies in the upper level and the divergence (convergence) anomalies in the lower level result in the descending (ascending) motion over the SRYR. These factors decrease (increase) the rainfall, thereby decreasing (increasing) the runoff in the SRYR during the flood season.…”

Reconstruction of bottom water ventilation changes in the West Philippine Sea during the last glacial-interglacial period by Wei-Cheng Hsiung, Yuan-Pin Chang, Horng-Sheng Mii, Ken Ikehara, Toshiya Kanamatsu, Hui-Ling Lin

“…During the last glacial period, it is reported that this circulation slowed down, causing glacial intermediate water to descend to depths of 2,000 m in the Pacific. This process is thought to be a key mechanism in restricting global deep-water circulation and reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations during glacial periods. …”

Reduced Numbers of Returning Atlantic Salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i>) and Thiamine Deficiency Are Both Associated with the Consumption of High-Lipid Prey Fish by Marja Keinänen, Jari Raitaniemi, Jukka Pönni, Tiina Ritvanen, Timo Myllylä, Pekka J. Vuorinen

“…In 2023, exceptionally few salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i>) ascended from the Baltic Sea to spawn in the Rivers Tornionjoki and Simojoki, regardless of the proper number of smolts descending to the sea in preceding years. We investigated how the numbers of age-0 and young herring (<i>Clupea harengus</i>) and sprat (<i>Sprattus sprattus</i>), which are the principal prey species of salmon in the Baltic Proper, the main feeding area of these salmon, as well as the amount of lipid obtained from them and their protein-to-lipid ratio, correlated with the number of returning salmon and the thiamine (vitamin B1) status of spawning salmon. …”
