In birds, the differences between breeding and nonbreeding ranges can be thousands of miles, and we still do not know precisely how these ranges are established or how birds can so accurately move between them.

Abstract Strong decadal variations in the oceanic uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) observed over the past three decades challenge our ability to predict the strength of the ocean carbon sink. By assimilating atmospheric and oceanic observational data products into an Earth system model–based decadal prediction system, we can reproduce the observed variations of the ocean carbon uptake globally.
