Extensive frost weathering across unglaciated North America during the Last Glacial Maximum
In unglaciated terrain, the imprint of past glacial periods is difficult to discern. The
topographic signature of periglacial processes, such as solifluction lobes, may be erased or …

A regional perspective on Holocene fire–climate–human interactions in the Pacific Northwest of North America
Wildfire plays an important role in ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest, but past relationships
among fire, climate, and human actions remain unclear. A multiscale analysis of thirty-four …

Genome divergence and diversification within a geographic mosaic of coevolution
Despite substantial interest in coevolution's role in diversification, examples of coevolution
contributing to speciation have been elusive. Here, we build upon past studies that have …

The evolution of a thermokarst-lake landscape: Late Quaternary permafrost degradation and stabilization in interior Alaska
Thermokarst processes characterize a variety of ice-rich permafrost terrains and often lead
