TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that a blend of these two endpoints is the most viable solution to share a carbon quota consistent with a 2 °C warming limit, which is a common global resource that countries need to share.
Abstract: Future cumulative CO2 emissions consistent with a given warming limit are a finite common global resource that countries need to share — a carbon quota. Strategies to share a quota consistent with a 2 °C warming limit range from keeping the present distribution to reaching an equal per-capita distribution of cumulative emissions. This Perspective shows that a blend of these endpoints is the most viable solution.

TL;DR: It is shown, by applying internationally agreed criteria for classifying species extinction risk, that languages are more threatened than birds or mammals.
Abstract: There are global threats to biodiversity with current extinction rates well above background levels. Although less well publicized, numerous human languages have also become extinct, and others are threatened with extinction. However, estimates of the number of threatened languages vary considerably owing to the wide range of criteria used. For example, languages have been classified as threatened if the number of speakers is less than 100, 500, 1,000, 10,000, 20,000 or 100,000 (ref. 3). Here I show, by applying internationally agreed criteria for classifying species extinction risk, that languages are more threatened than birds or mammals. Rare languages are more likely to show evidence of decline than commoner ones. Areas with high language diversity also have high bird and mammal diversity and all three show similar relationships to area, latitude, area of forest and, for languages and birds, maximum altitude. The time of human settlement has little effect on current language diversity. Although similar factors explain the diversity of languages and biodiversity, the factors explaining extinction risk for birds and mammals (high altitude, high human densities and insularity) do not explain the numbers of endangered languages.

TL;DR: The global integrated sea-air anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) flux from 1990 to 2009 is determined from models and data-based approaches as part of the Regional Carbon Cycle Assessment and Processes (RECCAP) project.
Abstract: The globally integrated sea–air anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) flux from 1990 to 2009 is determined from models and data-based approaches as part of the Regional Carbon Cycle Assessment and Processes (RECCAP) project. Numerical methods include ocean inverse models, atmospheric inverse models, and ocean general circulation models with parameterized biogeochemistry (OBGCMs). The median value of different approaches shows good agreement in average uptake. The best estimate of anthropogenic CO 2 uptake for the time period based on a compilation of approaches is −2.0 Pg C yr −1 . The interannual variability in the sea–air flux is largely driven by large-scale climate re-organizations and is estimated at 0.2 Pg C yr −1 for the two decades with some systematic differences between approaches. The largest differences between approaches are seen in the decadal trends. The trends range from −0.13 (Pg C yr −1 ) decade −1 to −0.50 (Pg C yr −1 ) decade −1 for the two decades under investigation. The OBGCMs and the data-based sea–air CO 2 flux estimates show appreciably smaller decadal trends than estimates based on changes in carbon inventory suggesting that methods capable of resolving shorter timescales are showing a slowing of the rate of ocean CO 2 uptake. RECCAP model outputs for five decades show similar differences in trends between approaches.

TL;DR: It is found that slow transport of SufI is still possible if a single arginine is conservatively substituted by a lysine residue, suggesting that the sequence conservation of the Tat consensus motif is a reflection of the functional importance of the consensus residues.
