The alien grass, Pennisetum setaceum, dominates many of the lowland arid regions that once supported native Heteropogon contortus grassland on the island of Hawaii. Response to drought in a glasshouse was compared between these C grasses to test if success as an invader is related to drought toleran

Evidence is presented of the existence of three largely independent precursors of changes in the Southern Oscillation (SO). In a region of the south-east Pacific, anomalously high SST, low pressure, low cloudiness and weak winds tend to occur in December-February (DJF) prior to a year of low SO inde
## Abstract This paper reviews our understanding of how the effects of the El Niรฑoโsouthern oscillation (ENSO) might be transmitted from the tropical Pacific Ocean to the Antarctic, and examines the evidence for such signals in the Antarctic meteorological, sea ice, ice core and biological records.
## Abstract In this paper some of the questions raised by Nicholls (1988) concerning the relationship of volcanic aerosols to the El NiรฑMo/Southern Oscillation are examined and answered. Using Monte Carlo techniques, the statistical significance of the composite sea surface temperature (SST) anomal
