Controlled Irradiative Formation of Penitentes
, 2006 Spike-shaped structures are produced by light-driven ablation in very different contexts. Penitentes 1-4 m high are common on Andean glaciers, where their formation changes glacier dynamics and hydrology.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Increase of Snow Compaction Density by Repeated Artificial Snow Consolidation Formation
Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, 2020 A method to consolidate huge amounts of snow into large ice pieces has been investigated based on science viewpoints for supporting the maintenance of road infrastructure in winter [1]. This study investigated repeated artificial snow consolidation formation for increasing snow compaction density. Producing compacted snow having density exceeding ρ = 0.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Snow heterogeneous reactivity of bromide with ozone lost during snow metamorphism [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020 Earth's snow cover is very dynamic on diurnal timescales. The changes to the snow structure during this metamorphism have wide-ranging impacts on processes such as avalanche formation and on the capacity of surface snow to exchange trace gases with the ...

An agent-based model to explore scenarios of adaptation to climate change in an alpine tourism destination [PDF]
, 2010 The European Alpine region is one of the most sensitive to climate change impacts. ClimAlpTour is a European research project of the Alpine Space Programme, dealing with the expected decrease in snow and ice cover.
