Dust catchers: Biological crusts

https://www.mpg.de/18648634/0517-chem-dust-catchers-biological-crusts-152990-x

Bacteria, fungi, mosses, lichens and algae form so-called biological soil crusts on dry land. They strengthen the soil in arid regions and play an important role for the climate. A new study provides for the first time comprehensive facts and figures on the importance of these land surface interactions for the regional and global dust cycle under current and future conditions.

Archaeogenetics reveals unknown migration in the South Pacific

https://www.mpg.de/10766761/archaeogenetics-reveals-unknown-migration-in-the-south-pacific

Only some 3500 years ago people began to colonize the South Pacific archipelagos of Oceania. An international team of researchers including scientists from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena now analyzed for the first time, the genomes of the first settlers who lived on the island chains Tonga and Vanuatu 3100-2500 years ago. The results, published today in Nature contradict common assumptions about the colonization of the region and point to another large and previously unknown migration wave from Melanesia.
