Since then, he has contributed to some of the world's most pivotal discoveries in oceanography. Karl, who was elected to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) in 2006 and is now a professor of oceanography at the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology at the University of Hawaii, has witnessed iconic moments like the discovery of hydrothermal vents at the Galapagos Rift. His work on 23...

Díaz explores how the chemical and physical traits of plants—such as size, texture, and nutrient content of leaves, wood density, palatability to herbivores, and canopy architecture—influence a plant’s response to the environment and play an active role in the planet’s constant evolution in response to environmental change.pnas;109/29/11469/UNFIG01F1unfig01Sandra M.
