Abstract:
... Upper Devonian marine deposits of the Baruunhuurai Terrane in western Mongolia represent island arc settings, which yielded a diverse conodont assemblage of 30 taxa, including species of Ancyrognathus (as well as one new species), Icriodus, Mehlina, Polygnathus and Palmatolepis. Biodiversity analysis of Ancyrognathus, Pelekysgnathus, Mehlina and Icriodus shows that the Mongolian conodont assemblag ...

Abstract:
... Ulaanbaatar - the coldest capital in the world - is home to half of Mongolia's population, much of which uses coal for household heating, contributing to high wintertime air pollution. We piloted two-stage air-to-air heat pumps in 2017, when temperatures dropped to −39 °C. These heat pumps were reliable and efficient, with an average coefficient of performance of 1.86 on the coldest days. Heat pum ...

Abstract:
... Snow cover is highly sensitive to global warming, and it, in return, has huge impacts on global and regional climate change. Because of the limitations of in-situ observations, only a few studies have analyzed the dynamics of snow cover across the whole of China. In this study, we studied the spatio-temporal variabilities of snow cover over China and explored the covary of snow cover with precipit ...
