Task Shifting, eHealth and Shared Decision‐Making—Preference Heterogeneity in the Adult Population for Developments in Outpatient Primary Healthcare [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Expectations
Introduction Considerable changes in primary outpatient healthcare can be expected in the coming years due to various trends observed in Western countries, such as an ageing population, an increasing number of patients with chronic illnesses, GP ...

The influence of föhn winds on annual and seasonal surface melt on the Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Warm, dry föhn winds are observed over the Larsen C Ice Shelf year-round and are thought to contribute to the continuing weakening and collapse of ice shelves on the eastern Antarctic Peninsula (AP). We use a surface energy balance (SEB) model, driven by

Föhn-induced melting over Larsen C modulated by atmospheric river shape, direction and landfall location [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Recent decades have seen record-high temperatures on the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) due to combined atmospheric rivers (ARs) and föhn warming. While ARs frequently enhance föhn, not all events cause surface warming over the entire Larsen C Ice Shelf (LCIS).

Downslope föhn winds over the Antarctic Peninsula and their effect on the Larsen ice shelves [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014
Mesoscale model simulations are presented of a westerly föhn event over the Antarctic Peninsula mountain ridge and onto the Larsen C ice shelf, just south of the recently collapsed Larsen B ice shelf.

The role of föhn winds in eastern Antarctic Peninsula rapid ice shelf collapse [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2022
Ice shelf collapse reduces buttressing and enables grounded glaciers to contribute more rapidly to sea-level rise in a warming climate. The abrupt collapses of the Larsen A (1995) and B (2002) ice shelves on the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) occurred, at ...

Energetics of surface melt in West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
We use reanalysis data and satellite remote sensing of cloud properties to examine how meteorological conditions alter the surface energy balance to cause surface melt that is detectable in satellite passive microwave imagery over West Antarctica.

Flow Regimes and Föhn Types Characterize the Local Climate of Southern Patagonia

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
The local climate in Southern Patagonia is strongly influenced by the interaction between the topography and persistent westerlies, which can generate föhn events, dry and warm downslope winds.

Wind‐Associated Melt Trends and Contrasts Between the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Föhn and katabatic winds (downslope winds) can increase ice sheet surface melt, run‐off, and ice‐shelf vulnerability to hydrofracture and are poorly constrained on the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets (GIS and AIS).

50 Gbit/s real-time test environment for integrated photonic DQPSK receivers [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Radio Science, 2014
In this paper an FPGA-based test system for high-speed transmission experiments with integrated photonic receivers is presented. Pseudorandom binary sequences are generated inside the FPGA and encoded as either differential quadrature phase shift keying (

Melting over the northeast Antarctic Peninsula (1999–2009): evaluation of a high-resolution regional climate model [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Surface melting over the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) may impact the stability of ice shelves and thus the rate at which grounded ice is discharged into the ocean. Energy and mass balance models are needed to understand how climatic change and atmospheric
