  • Coffea stenophylla is a recently rediscovered, narrow-leaved wild coffee from Upper West Africa. Rigorous sensory evaluation (tasting) rates its flavour profile as analogous to high-quality Arabica coffee, but it can grow at much higher temperatures.

  • Modelling and remote sensing predict that near-future climate change could make 41–61% of the growing area of coffee in Ethiopia unusable. However, relocation of coffee areas and forest conservation could see coffee farming areas increase fourfold.

  • This paper presents an example of a percolation threshold for infectious disease, namely the plague among great gerbils in Central Asia. The threshold arises from the spatial constraints on flea dispersal movements that carry plague from one family group of great gerbils to another. These movements are small compared to the vast contiguous areas of desert that have been colonized by the great gerbil. The result is a percolation system wherein plague is only able to percolate through the landscape if it is sufficiently 'filled' with family groups of hosts.

  • The abundance of different isotopes of oxygen provides clues to the origin of matter in the Solar System. Hence the importance of studies of oxygen atoms from the Sun trapped in metal grains on the Moon.

  • The failure of Liberica coffee as a global crop plant by the turn of the twentieth century was due to a number of factors, including the inappropriate selection of material for global dissemination. Renewed interest in this species, particularly in the excelsa variant, is evident across the coffee supply chain. In a warming world, and in an era beset with supply chain disruption, Liberica coffee could re-emerge as a major crop plant.
