Looking for solutions in climate change communications
This document discusses strategies for improving climate change communication. It suggests that using doomsday images of climate impacts is not effective and promotes apathy. Instead, communications should focus on solutions, be tailored to audiences, and appeal to people's values. Bringing people together in communities and focusing on practical solutions can help drive climate action better than emphasizing risks alone.

Climate.now– new climate change education material for higher educationIntegrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
Climate.now is a new climate change education material developed for higher education in Finland. It was created by a multidisciplinary team from several Finnish universities over 2016-2017. The material covers climate change as a scientific phenomenon, mitigation efforts to prevent further change, and adaptation strategies. It is available in both Finnish and English through a website and YouTube channel. The goal is for the open educational resources to be incorporated into university courses across disciplines to help students examine climate change from various perspectives and critically consider solutions. The team hopes the material and networking opportunities for teachers will facilitate widespread climate change education.What’s changing? – advice for early career scientists
The document provides advice for early career scientists on changes happening in scientific careers. It discusses how technology is disrupting publishing and the relationship between academia and industry. The value of research is also being measured in new ways, such as through altmetrics that track social media mentions and blog posts. The presentation advises scientists to share their work online, be flexible, and not worry if they are unsure of their career path. Funders are paying more attention to altmetrics and how research is shared and reused both within academia and outside of it.

TreeNet–Linking net ecosystem productivity of forests to wood growth and tree...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
TreeNet is a monitoring and research network that continuously measures and stores stem radius changes in trees at 30 sites across Switzerland. Dendrometer measurements are linked to net ecosystem productivity measured by eddy covariance. Annual stem radius increments are highly correlated with annual net ecosystem productivity. Estimates of net ecosystem productivity can be derived from dendrometer data using site-specific relationships between the two. Both growth processes and tree water relations contribute to stem radius changes and explain its close linkage to net ecosystem productivity, allowing upscaling of carbon flux measurements across landscapes.Using social media for communicating research experiences from a short gradua...

The document summarizes a graduate course that used social media to communicate research on the effects of climate change in the Arctic. Students tweeted over 150 times about course activities and findings under #ArcticCourse. They also wrote blog posts about their research projects. One group experimented with an educational game to engage the public. Feedback found using social media was a new experience for many students but helped communicate their work, with some saying it inspired them to start their own blogs. The document concludes that demonstrating societal impact through public outreach is increasingly important and social media allows researchers to deliver scientific messages to broader audiences.Recommended

Combining Oceanic And Atmospheric Carbon Data to constrain CO2 fluxes in Europ...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
The document summarizes a presentation on combining oceanic and atmospheric carbon dioxide data to constrain CO2 fluxes in Europe and surrounding oceans. It discusses using atmospheric CO2 concentration measurements along with ocean surface CO2 and dissolved inorganic carbon measurements to infer regional CO2 fluxes via atmospheric inversion modeling. Results show seasonal and interannual variability in fluxes agree reasonably between different modeling methods, though uncertainty remains at the global scale due to sparse data in some regions. Combining multiple modeling approaches provides a more robust estimate of surface ocean-atmosphere CO2 fluxes than any single method alone.The GEO Carbon and GHG Initiative: toward policy‐relevant global carbon cycle...
The GEO Carbon and GHG Initiative: toward policy‐relevant global carbon cycle...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
The document proposes establishing a GEO Carbon and GHG Initiative (GEO-C) to coordinate global carbon cycle and greenhouse gas observations and analysis. GEO-C would provide an overarching framework to integrate different observing systems and networks, optimize their design, and ensure data is accessible to support climate policy and mitigation/adaptation efforts. Its goals are to establish a comprehensive, sustained global observational system and provide decision-makers with the carbon and GHG data and information they need. The Initiative is proposed to start in 2016 with preparatory work, and transition to full implementation from 2017-2025 if endorsed and adequately funded.MaNiP– A large scale nutrition manipulation experiment in a tree grass ecosys...

This document provides an overview of the MaNiP experiment, which is a large-scale nutrition manipulation experiment in a tree grass ecosystem in Spain. The goals are to understand the ecosystem and physiological response to different nitrogen and phosphorus stoichiometry and water availability. The study site and instrumentation are described, including flux towers to measure carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy fluxes at half-hourly intervals. Spatial heterogeneity is analyzed using hyperspectral imagery and vegetation indices. Soil processes, nutrient availability, and fluxes are also measured.Source attribution of halogenated compounds in support of emission inventorie...
Source attribution of halogenated compounds in support of emission inventorie...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
This document discusses using atmospheric measurements of halocarbons to support emission inventories used in international agreements aimed at addressing ozone depletion and global warming. It lists various halocarbons including CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs, and others. Measurement networks like AGAGE and NOAA/ESRL monitor these gases globally. Models can combine measurements with information on gas lifetimes to estimate emissions on regional and country scales. Recent studies have applied these methods to verify national inventories and identify unknown emission sources. Atmospheric measurements provide a real-world check on inventories and help build trust between countries. Standardized measurement and analysis techniques are important to support emission estimates.10-years of CO2, O2 and APO records at two remote sites of Jungfraujoch, Swit...

This document summarizes records of CO2, O2 and atmospheric potential oxygen (APO) from two remote sites in Switzerland and France over 10 years. It finds:
1) Trends in CO2, O2 and APO were similar at both sites, increasing by approximately 2 ppm, -20 permeg and -10 permeg respectively per year.
2) Seasonal cycles in the measurements differed between sites, likely due to differences in sampled air masses and fossil fuel influences.
3) Partitioning of atmospheric CO2 among reservoirs estimated from APO data accounted for anthropogenic CO2 emissions but showed some variability between the sites.Wood phenology, not carbon input, controls the interannual variability of tre...

Constraining terrestrial carbon fluxes by assimilating the SMOS soil moisture...Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
1) The study assimilated SMOS soil moisture observations into a terrestrial biosphere model to quantify the added value of soil moisture data for constraining terrestrial carbon fluxes compared to assimilating only atmospheric CO2 concentrations.
2) Assimilating both soil moisture and CO2 observations led to greater reductions in uncertainties of carbon fluxes and process parameters than assimilating CO2 observations alone.
3) The results demonstrate the potential of jointly assimilating remotely sensed soil moisture with atmospheric CO2 observations to improve estimates and uncertainties of global carbon fluxes from land to the atmosphere.The Surface Ocean CO2Atlas enables quantification of the ocean carbon sink ...

This document discusses the importance of long-term environmental and physiological data for understanding and predicting forest ecosystem functioning. It outlines the current data and modeling paradigms in forest science, including empirical models based on long-term forestry data and process models based on eco-physiological data. The challenges of predicting climate change impacts are discussed. Long-term, high-quality monitoring data from networks like ICP Forest and ICOS are invaluable for detecting trends, testing hypotheses, parameterizing models, and data-model assimilation. The conclusions emphasize that understanding climate impacts is more difficult than expected, requiring eco-evolutionary modeling and continued long-term eco-physiological research at sites like ICOS.Trial and error in determining carbon budgets at policy relevant scales
Trial and error in determining carbon budgets at policy relevant scalesIntegrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
This document discusses regional and country-scale carbon budgets. It begins by outlining some issues with mesoscale models and uncertainties in regional budgets due to limited observations. It then discusses efforts to close carbon budgets at continental scales and compares bottom-up and top-down estimates, finding large discrepancies. The document presents several case studies of carbon budget modeling and inversion for the Netherlands and Germany, comparing modeled fluxes to aircraft observations. It concludes by discussing reducing uncertainties in carbon budgets by bridging scales from global to regional to local through integrated surface, aircraft and potential satellite observations.The Challenges for Climate Communication Post-COP21
The document discusses the challenges of communicating climate change science post-COP21. It notes that while science communication is important, people are active interpreters of meaning, and climate change can seem distant, uncertain, and disempowering. It also addresses issues like disinformation campaigns and the lack of research on best communication practices, comprising about 1 in 450 journal articles. Solutions proposed include increased funding, collaboration, guides to effective practices, and united communication efforts to overcome these challenges.

Trial and error in determining carbon budgets at policy relevant scalesIntegrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
This document discusses the need for an integrated global greenhouse gas information system (IG3IS) to provide scientific information on policy-relevant scales. It notes that global average temperatures have increased by 1.8-2.0°C over the past 135 years and 1.3°C over the past 45 years. Carbon dioxide levels at Mauna Loa observatory reached 402.25 ppm in August 2016, up from 398.93 ppm in August 2015. The document argues that an IG3IS is needed to inform climate intervention decisions, evaluate emissions reductions success, and support renewable energy development. Near-term goals include improving monitoring networks, analyses, and transport models to provide independent information for greenhouse gas emissions reduction efforts.S5 daniel fischer
This document discusses communication and education approaches for sustainable consumption. It describes Daniel Fischer's research group which focuses on how consumption satisfies human needs and how to encourage more sustainable alternatives. The group explores how different communication formats can help achieve more sustainable consumption. Key aspects of the group's work include that education and communication are not sufficient for change on their own and that their potential lies in stimulating social learning rather than direct behavioral change. The document also describes the group's research into using mindfulness training to bridge attitudes and behaviors regarding consumption.

Wesleyan Science or Wesleyan Engineering?
This document discusses the relationship between science and engineering, and proposes a model for Methodist churches and clergy to engage more with their local communities through community organizing. Some key points:
- It argues that engineering focuses more on creating things that work to meet human needs, while science seeks understanding, and engineering has historically depended on science but not vice versa.
- It proposes that Methodist clergy be trained as both presbyters and community organizers, focusing more on engaging their local communities around issues of social justice, compassion, and human flourishing rather than internal church activities.
- The goal is for clergy to "speak truth to power" in their localities and encourage the church to serve the common good through both word and

This document discusses strategies for measuring the impact of arts and humanities research, which often involves non-traditional outputs. It notes that current systems focus too narrowly on citations and publications. To develop an inclusive system, it recommends considering four questions: how the research benefits society, who finds it valuable, how to communicate its value, and how to prove others find it valuable. It provides examples answering these questions for two projects and emphasizes gathering diverse evidence of impact from the beginning to communicate research value to different stakeholders.

Jocher, Georg: Addressing forest canopy decoupling on a global scaleIntegrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
This document discusses addressing forest canopy decoupling on a global scale. It provides background on decoupling, which occurs when there is insufficient mixing of air masses above and below the forest canopy. This can bias carbon flux measurements made above the canopy. The document outlines a global decoupling synthesis study involving over 30 forest sites. Preliminary results show decoupling occurs at all sites and is influenced by atmospheric conditions, canopy properties, and surrounding topography. Topography in particular can impact flow patterns and cause horizontal advection during decoupled periods. In conclusion, complementary below-canopy measurements are recommended to better understand decoupling and its effects on carbon flux estimates.Dukat, Paulina: How does drought impact water and carbon exchange in the temp...

This study examined how drought impacts water and carbon exchange in Scots pine forests across boreal and temperate climate zones. The researchers used the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) to determine drought conditions at six Scots pine forest sites representing a range of climates. They found that prolonged drought, even over multiple summers, reduced the carbon uptake and increased the water use efficiency of the pine forests. Specifically, they observed a reduction in the assimilation rate and annual carbon sequestration at one temperate forest site after an extreme drought in 2015. Linking long-term SPEI data to on-site flux and soil measurements helped explain the forest ecosystem responses to drought across different climaticvan Zwieten, Ruthger: Performance assessment of the mobile g4301 Cavity Ring-...

This document describes methods to improve machine learning reconstructions of ocean carbon dioxide (pCO2) by incorporating physical knowledge. It presents two methods: (1) reconstructing the pCO2 residual by removing the temperature component, focusing the model on other drivers; and (2) using ocean biogeochemical models as a prior and training a machine learning model to estimate the climatological misfit between models and observations, allowing extension of reconstructions back to 1959. Both methods showed improved performance over original models in independent evaluation data, with the climatological correction approach capturing most of the improvement. The techniques demonstrate how physical knowledge can enhance machine learning reconstructions of pCO2.Kowalska, Natalia: Does Below-Above Canopy Air Mass Decoupling Impact Tempera...

This document presents research on the impact of below-canopy and above-canopy air mass decoupling on carbon dioxide exchange in a temperate floodplain forest. The study measured CO2 fluxes above and below the forest canopy from 2015-2020 at a site in Lanžhot, Czech Republic. While decoupling between the layers occurred regularly, the analysis found no significant effect of decoupling on the annual net ecosystem carbon exchange derived from above-canopy measurements. The flat terrain around the study site likely inhibited the removal of carbon-rich air, minimizing any bias from decoupling over longer time scales.Cinelli, Giorgia: Use of outdoor radon activity concentration and radon flux ...

This document summarizes a study estimating the spatial variability of carbon cycle components in Helsinki, Finland using the SUEWS modelling tool. The study found that CO2 emissions from human metabolism accounted for 45% of local anthropogenic emissions, while net biogenic CO2 exchange accounted for 25% of anthropogenic emissions. Spatial maps showed traffic emissions were concentrated along ring roads, building heating emissions in residential areas, and human metabolism emissions in city centers. Vegetation uptake and emissions from human metabolism were comparable to or exceeded emissions from traffic and building heating in some areas of Helsinki.Veerkamp, Hannes: Measurements of the CO2 gas transfer velocity in Jade Bay

This study measured CO2 fluxes and water turbulence in Jade Bay, Germany during winter to better understand how these parameters influence air-sea CO2 exchange. Researchers used a floating chamber method and infrared gas analyzer to measure the gas transfer velocity (k) and acoustic instruments to measure turbulent kinetic energy (TKE). Preliminary results found only a weak correlation between wind speed and TKE, and no significant correlation between wind speed and k. Further analysis will test for correlations between k and TKE and compare different instruments' TKE measurements, to improve models of air-sea CO2 flux.Suto, Hiroshi: The Greenhouse gas Observations of Biospheric and Local Emissi...

Radon is a useful tracer gas for estimating greenhouse gas emissions and reducing uncertainties in atmospheric transport models. However, current radon measurement techniques have inconsistencies that limit their usefulness. This study proposes a standardized protocol for radon data processing to harmonize measurements across sites and over time. Applying time response corrections to radon detector outputs from two UK sites improved correlations with methane concentrations and allowed more frequent flux estimations in atmospheric transport models. The standardized protocol has potential to better utilize radon measurements for quantifying greenhouse gas emissions.Grünwald, Thomas: Windthrow turns a former old spruce forest into a net CO2 s...

A large windthrow event in 2007 turned a former old spruce forest (DE-Hzd) into a net CO2 source for 11 years until 2017. Compared to an undisturbed old spruce forest (DE-Tha), the disturbed forest was a weaker carbon sink from 2018-2021, absorbing only 21% as much carbon. In total, the windthrow caused the disturbed forest to lose an estimated 288 tons of carbon per hectare from 2010-2021. Parallel monitoring revealed both the duration and magnitude of carbon loss following the disturbance.Davis, Kenneth: Applications of eddy covariance flux measurements in quantify...

This document summarizes research using eddy covariance flux tower measurements to quantify greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from cities. Flux towers can directly measure CO2 and other gas fluxes continuously over urban areas. When combined with trace gas measurements and footprint modeling, flux data can be decomposed to separate biological from fossil-fuel derived CO2 fluxes. Comparisons of decomposed flux data to high-resolution urban GHG emissions inventories like Hestia show good agreement, validating the inventories. Flux towers also reveal active photosynthesis in urban turf grasses, highlighting needs to represent different urban vegetation types. Accounting for variations in rural biogenic fluxes is also important for isolating urban anthropogenic emissions.More from Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) (20)

Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

Mechanics:- Simple and Compound Pendulum
a compound pendulum is a physical system with a more complex structure than a simple pendulum, incorporating its mass distribution and dimensions into its oscillatory motion around a fixed axis. Understanding its dynamics involves principles of rotational mechanics and the interplay between gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. Compound pendulums are used in various scientific and engineering applications, such as seismology for measuring earthquakes, in clocks to maintain accurate timekeeping, and in mechanical systems to study oscillatory motion dynamics.

Embracing Deep Variability For Reproducibility and Replicability
Abstract: Reproducibility (aka determinism in some cases) constitutes a fundamental aspect in various fields of computer science, such as floating-point computations in numerical analysis and simulation, concurrency models in parallelism, reproducible builds for third parties integration and packaging, and containerization for execution environments. These concepts, while pervasive across diverse concerns, often exhibit intricate inter-dependencies, making it challenging to achieve a comprehensive understanding. In this short and vision paper we delve into the application of software engineering techniques, specifically variability management, to systematically identify and explicit points of variability that may give rise to reproducibility issues (eg language, libraries, compiler, virtual machine, OS, environment variables, etc). The primary objectives are: i) gaining insights into the variability layers and their possible interactions, ii) capturing and documenting configurations for the sake of reproducibility, and iii) exploring diverse configurations to replicate, and hence validate and ensure the robustness of results. By adopting these methodologies, we aim to address the complexities associated with reproducibility and replicability in modern software systems and environments, facilitating a more comprehensive and nuanced perspective on these critical aspects.

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Mites,Slug,Snail_Infesting agricultural crops.pdf
Order : Trombidiformes (Acarina) Class : Arachnida
Mites normally feed on the undersurface of the leaves but the symptoms are more easily seen on the uppersurface.
Tetranychids produce blotching (Spots) on the leaf-surface.
Tarsonemids and Eriophyids produce distortion (twist), puckering (Folds) or stunting (Short) of leaves.
Eriophyids produce distinct galls or blisters (fluid-filled sac in the outer layer)

. The transient was identified in deep James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/NIRCam imaging from the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program. Photometric and spectroscopic followup with NIRCam and NIRSpec, respectively, confirm the redshift and yield UV-NIR light-curve, NIR color, and spectroscopic information all consistent with a Type Ia classification. Despite its classification as a likely SN Ia, SN 2023adsy is both fairly red (

cosmological sample, we apply a fiducial standardization approach to SN 2023adsy and find that the SN 2023adsy luminosity distance measurement is in excellent agreement (

Ca-rich SNe Ia, SN 2023adsy is standardizable and gives no indication that SN Ia standardized luminosities change significantly with redshift. A larger sample of distant SNe Ia is required to determine if SN Ia population characteristics at high-

counterparts, and to confirm that standardized luminosities nevertheless remain constant with redshift.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

Magmatic iron-meteorite parent bodies are the earliest planetesimals in the Solar System,and they preserve information about conditions and planet-forming processes in thesolar nebula. In this study, we include comprehensive elemental compositions andfractional-crystallization modeling for iron meteorites from the cores of five differenti-ated asteroids from the inner Solar System. Together with previous results of metalliccores from the outer Solar System, we conclude that asteroidal cores from the outerSolar System have smaller sizes, elevated siderophile-element abundances, and simplercrystallization processes than those from the inner Solar System. These differences arerelated to the formation locations of the parent asteroids because the solar protoplane-tary disk varied in redox conditions, elemental distributions, and dynamics at differentheliocentric distances. Using highly siderophile-element data from iron meteorites, wereconstruct the distribution of calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) across theprotoplanetary disk within the first million years of Solar-System history. CAIs, the firstsolids to condense in the Solar System, formed close to the Sun. They were, however,concentrated within the outer disk and depleted within the inner disk. Future modelsof the structure and evolution of the protoplanetary disk should account for this dis-tribution pattern of CAIs.
