Fracture-induced softening for large-scale ice dynamics [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2014
Floating ice shelves can exert a retentive and hence stabilizing force onto the inland ice sheet of Antarctica. However, this effect has been observed to diminish by the dynamic effects of fracture processes within the protective ice shelves, leading to ...

Climate System Ontology: A Formal Specification of the Complex Climate System

, 2023
Modeling the climate system requires a formal representation of the characteristics of the system elements and the processes that change them. The Climate System Ontology (CSO) represents the semantics of the processes that continuously cause change at component and system levels.

Advancing Age Modulates Associations Between Cognitive Impairment and Brain Volumes in Early MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Cognitive impairment is common in multiple sclerosis (MS), but manifestations following the first demyelinating event are relatively unexplored. We investigated cross‐sectional associations between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)–derived brain volumes and the presence of cognitive impairment outcomes five years after the first ...

How Well Do Gridded Datasets of Observed Daily Precipitation Compare over Australia?

Advances in Meteorology, 2015
Daily gridded precipitation data are needed for investigating spatiotemporal variability of precipitation, including extremes; however, uncertainties related to daily precipitation products are large.

Global warming due to loss of large ice masses and Arctic summer sea ice

Nature Communications, 2020
The disintegration of cryosphere elements such as the Arctic summer sea ice, mountain glaciers, Greenland and West Antarctica is associated with temperature and radiative feedbacks.

Comparing the Effect of Semi‐Immersive Virtual Reality, Computerized Cognitive Training, and Traditional Rehabilitation on Cognitive Function in Multiple Sclerosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive impairment is a common non‐motor symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), negatively affecting autonomy and Quality of Life (QoL). Innovative rehabilitation strategies, such as semi‐immersive virtual reality (VR) and computerized cognitive training (CCT), may offer advantages over traditional cognitive rehabilitation (TCR ...

China’s Well-Facilitated Farmland distribution dataset

Scientific Data
China has less than 10% of the world’s arable land but must feed more than 20% of the global population. Both climate change and farmland degradation pose significant challenges to China’s food security. In 2009, Chinese government launched a nationwide,

Southern Hemisphere westerlies as a driver of the early deglacial atmospheric CO2 rise

Nature Communications, 2018
Despite decades of research, the sequence of events leading to the deglacial atmospheric CO2 rise remains unclear. Menviel et al. show that Southern Ocean convection driven by intensified Southern Hemisphere westerlies during Heinrich stadial 1 can ...

Sertraline Treatment Can Mimic Niemann‐Pick Type C Biomarker Profile: A Diagnostic Pitfall

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oxysterols (cholestane‐3β,5α,6β‐triol and 7‐ketocholesterol) and N‐palmitoyl‐O‐phosphocholineserine (PPCS) are sensitive biomarkers for Niemann‐Pick disease type C (NPC) screening. However, false‐positive results occur, with a biomarker profile suggestive of NPC despite the absence of pathogenic variants in genes involved in NPC or ...

Greater increases in temperature extremes in low versus high income countries

Environmental Research Letters, 2017
It is commonly expected that the world’s lowest income countries will face some of the worst impacts of global warming, despite contributing the least to greenhouse gas emissions. Using global atmospheric reanalyses we show that the world’s lowest income
