The Emerging Arctic Shipping Corridors
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractThe dramatic sea ice loss makes trans‐Arctic navigation possible. However, navigability assessments at high temporal resolution are still very limited. To bridge this gap, daily sea ice concentration and thickness from CMIP6 projections are applied to evaluate the future potential of Arctic shipping under multiple climate scenarios.

Aquaporin‐4 in Narcolepsy Type 1: Investigation of Perivascular Fluid Movement in Sleep Disorders
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) is caused by the loss of hypocretin‐1 leading to excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy. Additionally, disrupted nighttime sleep has become an increasingly recognized feature of NT1. As the glymphatic fluid movement has been linked to sleep architecture, we investigated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Aquaporin‐4 (AQP4 ...

Asian Countries and Arctic Shipping: Policies, Interests and Footprints on Governance
Arctic Review on Law and Politics, 2019 Most studies of Asian state involvement in Arctic affairs assume that shorter sea-lanes to Europe are a major driver of interest, so this article begins by examining the prominence of shipping concerns in Arctic policy statements made by major Asian ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020 Abstract Ensuring the safety of shipping in the Arctic and along the Northern Sea Route has some specifics associated with adverse climatic conditions. The presence of ice makes navigation difficult, and the interannual and interseasonal variability of its condition makes the timing of the start and duration of navigation in clear water ...
