Corrosion of Potential Canister Materials During Oxic to Anoxic Transient in Compacted Bentonite
Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.A comprehensive analytical approach was applied to investigate material degradation phenomena of cast iron and copper as potential canister materials for the safe disposal of high‐level radioactive waste, as well as compacted bentonite exposed to artificial water relevant for disposal. ABSTRACT The long‐term performance of the engineered barrier system

, 2009 Subduction is a major process that plays a first-order role in the dynamics of the Earth. The sinking of cold lithosphere into the mantle is thought by many authors to be the most important source of energy for plates driving forces.

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Gravity changes due to mountain-building processes and their detectability with satellite gravity missions [PDF]
, 2018 The Himalaya and Alps mountain ranges, and Tibetan plateau are presently subject to uplift, as documented by GNSS vertical movement rates. Uplift occurs in response to climatic mass loss (deglaciation or hydrologic mass loss) or due to the dynamic forces

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

On the forecast skill of a convection-permitting ensemble [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2017 The 2.5 km convection-permitting (CP) ensemble AROME-EPS (Applications of Research to Operations at Mesoscale – Ensemble Prediction System) is evaluated by comparison with the regional 11 km ensemble ALADIN-LAEF (Aire Limitée Adaption dynamique ...

Boreas, EarlyView.The glacierized Valle Frías in Northern Patagonia is one of the best‐studied valleys in South America and includes varved sediments from Lago Frías. We complement this lacustrine record with a high‐resolution documentation of varve counts and their composition.

Correction of broadband snow albedo measurements affected by unknown slope and sensor tilts [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2016 Geometric effects induced by the underlying terrain slope or by tilt errors of the radiation sensors lead to an erroneous measurement of snow or ice albedo. Consequently, artificial diurnal albedo variations in the order of 1–20 % are observed. The
