Dynamics of debris-covered glaciers

, 2021
The presence of a supraglacial debris layer affects the melt of underlying ice which causes debris-covered glaciers to respond differently to climate forcing compared to clean-ice glaciers. To further complicate matters, supraglacial debris cover is not constant in time, but changes as a consequence of redistribution by ice flow, melt-out of englacial ...

Immunoinflammatory Mechanisms and Biocompatibility of Bioactive Dental Biomaterials: From Fundamental Insights to Clinical Translation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐host dialogue at the implant interface governs biological fate and osseointegration. Surface physicochemical properties of titanium (Ti) dental implants, including microgrooves, nanopatterns, nanotopography, roughness, and wettability, modulate the initial adsorption of proteins and the formation of a dynamic biointerface.

International Workshop Examines Debris‐covered Glaciers

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2001
Glaciers are important features in climate studies. The smaller alpine glaciers respond to climatic variation in ways visible during the human lifetime. Glacial processes modify the landscape leaving signatures of past climatic conditions. The large ice sheets have an important role in the global heat and water balance, which in turn play a major role ...

Fructose‐Based Single‐Chain Polymer Nanoparticles for GLUT1–Mediated Delivery: Impact of Polymer Design on Uptake and In Vivo Performance

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Single‐chain nanoparticles have been proposed as drug delivery carriers, but adding a tail can significantly enhance their performance. This was demonstrated using a tadpole‐like structure comprising a head prepared from a UV‐crosslinked fructose‐based glycopolymer capable of targeting GLUT receptors, combined with a PEG‐based tail. Compared with other

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Observations on the development and decay processes of debris-flows

, 2019
It is important to understand the development and decay processes of debris-flows in order to plan effective debris-flow countermeasures. However, few studies have successfully observed the development and decay processes of debris-flows.

Contrasting Changes of Debris-Free Glacier and Debris-Covered Glacier in Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

Remote Sensing
Debris-free and debris-covered glaciers are both extensively present in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau. High-precision and rigorous comparative observational studies on different types of glaciers help us to accurately understand the overall state of water resource variability and the underlying mechanisms.
