Iron and Other Metal Ions in Human Health and Disease
Iron, copper, zinc, and calcium orchestrate cellular function through distinct yet cooperative mechanisms: redox‐active iron and copper cycle between oxidation states to act as Fenton catalysts and electron carriers in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS); redox‐inert zinc serves as a structural component of zinc‐finger proteins and a catalytic cofactor ...

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

ABSTRACT Permafrost in northern peatlands occurs within individual palsas or extensive peat plateaus and controls local carbon storage. These permafrost landforms are complex, and their internal structure remains poorly understood. We used quasi‐3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements, supported by UAV‐LiDAR topography, frost probing ...

Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is one of the most commonly used geophysical methods for imaging the distribution of electrical resistivity in the subsurface. It is often employed to characterise heterogeneity in karst regions and locate cavities

ABSTRACT Pingos and related permafrost mounds are widespread periglacial landforms in Arctic environments that are ice‐rich on the one hand and contain taliks on the other, making them vulnerable to climate change. So far, the interior, geophysical characteristics, and distribution of ground ice within these dome‐ or cone‐shaped features have not been ...

Abstract Playa lakes are considered promising landing sites on Mars because of their strong astrobiological potential. Therefore, sediments and buried structures in terrestrial playa lakes have become the focus of numerous analogue studies. The inclusion of ground penetrating radar (GPR) in the payloads of Martian missions has opened new avenues for ...

Permafrost Detachment Slides: A Distinct High‐Magnitude Permafrost Mass Wasting Process
Abstract Warming permafrost is destabilizing landscapes, intensifying thaw‐driven mass wasting and giving rise to novel landslide forms. We characterize two recent (2017 and 2018), deep‐seated translational failures that we term Permafrost Detachment Slides (PDSs), which rapidly translocated 4.5 and 18 × 106 m3 of frozen material into downstream ...
