Wood, Michael H, 2021, "Export of ice sheet meltwater from Upernavik Fjord,West Greenland", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.UT0U0T, Journal of Physical Oceanography, JPL Open Repository
Meltwater from Greenland is an important freshwater source for the North Atlantic Ocean, released into the ocean at the head of fjords in the formof runoff, submarine melt and icebergs. The meltwater release gives rise to complex in-fjord transformations that result in its diluti... |

Cable, Morgan L, 2021, "Science Objectives for Flagship-class mission concepts for the search for evidence of life at Enceladus", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.VGJNLI, Astrobiology, JPL Open Repository
Cassini revealed that Saturn’s moon Enceladus hosts a subsurface ocean that meets the accepted criteria for habitability with bio-essential elements and compounds, liquid water, and energy sources available in the environment. Whether these conditions are sufficiently abundant an... |

Kasthuri Venkateswaran, 2021, "Genomic characterization of plant-growth promoting features of Sphingomonas strains isolated from the International Space Station, with an emphasis on phytohormone production", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.YNCNUC, msphere, JPL Open Repository
AbstractIn an ongoing microbial tracking investigation of the International Space Station (ISS), several Sphingomonas strains were isolated. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence, identified the ISS strains as S. sanguinis (n=2) and one strain isolated from t... |

Eric Mamajek, 2021, "TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) VI: an 11 Myr giant planet transiting a very low-mass star in Lower Centaurus Crux", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.V4CKH3, Astronomical Journal, JPL Open Repository
Mature super-Earths and sub-Neptunes are predicted to be ≃Jovian radius when younger than 10 Myr. Thus, we expect to find 5–15R⊕ planets around young stars even if their older counterparts harbor none. We report the discovery and validation of TOI 1227 b, a 0.85 ± 0.05 RJ (9.5R⊕)... |

Hoffman, Pamela J, 2021, "NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) Mission: System Integration & Test", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.6WYFL3, 2022 IEEE Aerospace Conference, JPL Open Repository
The NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission is a multi-disciplinary Earth-observing radar that makes global measurements of land surface changes to greatly improve Earth system models and elucidate spatially and temporally complex phenomena, including ecosystem disturb... |

Parker, Ceth W, 2021, "Genomic characterization of Parengyodontium torokii sp. nov., a biofilm-forming fungus isolated from Mars 2020 assembly facility", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.POWEDU, Journal of Fungi, JPL Open Repository
A fungal strain (FJII-L10-SW-P1) was isolated from the Mars 2020 spacecraft assembly facility and exhibited biofilm formation on spacecraft-qualified Teflon surfaces. The reconstruction of a five loci gene tree (ITS, LSU, SSU, RPB1 &2, and TEF1) using multi-locus sequence typing... |

Chahat, Nacer E, 2021, "Dare Mighty Things: Fly on Mars", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.PLJIND, IEEE Antenna and Propagation Magazine, JPL Open Repository
THE motto of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is well known around the globe: “Dare Mighty Things”. The origins of the phrase are an 1899 speech by Theodore Roosevelt, in which he said: “Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by fa... |

Josh Willis, 2021, "Reduction in meridional heat export contributes to recent Indian Ocean warming", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.6YA30I, Journal of Physical Oceanography, JPL Open Repository
Since 2000, the Indian Ocean has warmed more rapidly than the Atlantic or Pacific. Air-sea fluxes alone cannot explain the rapid Indian Ocean warming, which has so far been linked to an increase in temperature transport into the basin through the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF). Her... |

Eric Mamajek, 2021, "A wide-orbit giant planet in the high-mass b Centauri binary system", https://doi.org/10.48577/jpl.UIHSBX, Nature, JPL Open Repository
Planet formation occurs around a wide range of stellar masses and stellar systemarchitectures . An improved understanding of the formation process can beachieved by studying it across the full extent of parameter space, particularlytoward the extremes. Earlier studies of planets... |
