This Week's Letters

An exchange of letters explores the "tension between privatization and the public domain in the use of genomic data." A writer explains why the "end of public higher education" is upon us. How "rising atmospheric carbon dioxide" affects "soil fungi" and "total microbial biomass and bacterial composition" is examined. And "subchrons" are said to have "important implications... for providing a better understanding of the origin of the geomagnetic field."
