Global economic burden of unmet surgical need for appendicitis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background There is a substantial gap in provision of adequate surgical care in many low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to identify the economic burden of unmet surgical need for the common condition of ... -
Global existence of weak solutions to unsaturated poroelasticity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We study unsaturated poroelasticity, i.e., coupled hydro-mechanical processes in variably saturated porous media, here modeled by a non-linear extension of Biot’s well-known quasi-static consolidation model. The coupled ... -
Global fading of the temperature–growth coupling at alpine and polar treelines
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Climate warming is expected to positively alter upward and poleward treelines which are controlled by low temperature and a short growing season. Despite the importance of treelines as a bioassay of climate change, a global ... -
Global FKRP Registry: observations in more than 300 patients with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy R9
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-04)Objective The Global FKRP Registry is a database for individuals with conditions caused by mutations in the Fukutin‐Related Protein (FKRP) gene: limb girdle muscular dystrophy R9 (LGMDR9, formerly LGMD2I) and congenital ... -
Global food insecurity and famine from reduced crop, marine fishery and livestock production due to climate disruption from nuclear war soot injection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Atmospheric soot loadings from nuclear weapon detonation would cause disruptions to the Earth’s climate, limiting terrestrial and aquatic food production. Here, we use climate, crop and fishery models to estimate the impacts ... -
Global Frequency and Geographical Distribution of Nighttime Streamer Corona Discharges (BLUEs) in Thunderclouds
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Blue LUminous Events (BLUEs) are transient corona discharges occurring in thunderclouds and characterized by strong 337.0 nm light flashes with absent (or weak) 777.4 nm component. We present the first nighttime climatology ... -
Global gap-analysis of amphipod barcode library
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In the age of global climate change and biodiversity loss there is an urgent need to provide effective and robust tools for diversity monitoring. One of the promising techniques for species identification is the use of DNA ... -
Global Health in the Age of COVID-19 Responsive Health Systems Through a Right to Health Fund
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)We propose that a Right to Health Capacity Fund (R2HCF) be created as a central institution of a reimagined global health architecture developed in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Such a fund would help ensure the ... -
Global knowledge–action networks at the frontlines of sustainability: Insights from five decades of science for action in UNESCO's World Network of biosphere reserves
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Generating actionable knowledge to meet current sustainability challenges requires unprecedented collaboration across scales, geographies, cultures and knowledges. Intergovernmental programmes and place-based knowledge–action ... -
Global maps of soil temperature
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ... -
A global monthly climatology of oceanic total dissolved inorganic carbon: a neural network approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Anthropogenic emissions of CO2 to the atmosphere have modified the carbon cycle for more than 2 centuries. As the ocean stores most of the carbon on our planet, there is an important task in unraveling the natural and ... -
A Global Ocean Oxygen Database and Atlas for Assessing and Predicting Deoxygenation and Ocean Health in the Open and Coastal Ocean
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In this paper, we outline the need for a coordinated international effort toward the building of an open-access Global Ocean Oxygen Database and ATlas (GO2DAT) complying with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, ... -
Global Ocean Sediment Composition and Burial Flux in the Deep Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Quantitative knowledge about the burial of sedimentary components at the seafloor has wide-ranging implications in ocean science, from global climate to continental weathering. The use of 230Th-normalized fluxes reduces ... -
Global ocean wave fields show consistent regional trends between 1980 and 2014 in a multi-product ensemble
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Historical trends in the direction and magnitude of ocean surface wave height, period, or direction are debated due to diverse data, time-periods, or methodologies. Using a consistent community-driven ensemble of global ... -
Global overview of youth development: Comparison of the 5Cs and developmental assets across six countries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Positive Youth Development (PYD) frameworks which describe young people's strengths and their relation to thriving and risk outcomes have gained significance among developmental researchers globally. As these models are ... -
Global patterns of species richness of the holarctic alpine herb Saxifraga: The role of temperature and habitat heterogeneity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The effects of contemporary climate, habitat heterogeneity and long-term climate change on species richness are well studied for woody plants in forest ecosystems, but poorly understood for herbaceous plants, especially ... -

Global phylogeography suggests extensive eucosmopolitanism in Mesopelagic Fishes (Maurolicus: Sternoptychidae)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Fishes in the mesopelagic zone (200–1000 m) have recently been highlighted for potential exploitation. Here we assess global phylogeography in Maurolicus, the Pearlsides, an ecologically important group. We obtained new ... -
Global polarization of Λ Λ hyperons in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 and 5.02 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The global polarization of the and hyperons is measured for Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN = 2.76 and 5.02 TeV recorded with the ALICE at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The results are reported differentially as a function ... -
