Cryptic Ice Wedge Networks in Holocene Peat, Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska
ABSTRACT The Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta (YKD), covering ~75,000 km2 of Alaska's discontinuous permafrost zone, has a historic (1902–2023) mean annual air temperature of ~−1°C and was previously thought to lack ice wedge networks. However, our recent investigations near Bethel, Alaska, revealed numerous near‐surface ice wedges.

Determination of Thermal Damage and Failure Time Analysis in Rocks Using Stochastic Models
ABSTRACT This study presents a stochastic modeling framework for estimating thermal damage and predicting failure time in fine‐grained Dholpur sandstone subjected to high‐temperature conditions. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on extensive thermally altered physical and mechanical properties, the proposed method utilizes only temperature and ...

ABSTRACT Textile waste poses a major challenge in the 21st century, particularly for Sub‐Saharan African countries, where local production and high imports lead to excessive waste, often ending up in landfills or incineration. However, opportunities for recycling and repurposing textile waste into construction materials are emerging.
