Evidence for the former existence of a thicker ice sheet on the Vestfjella nunataks in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1996
Vestfjella (73-74°S, 13-16°W) is a 130 km long nunatak range in western Dronning Maud Land in East Antarctica, and its northern and southern ends are situated close to the present ice sheet grounding-line.

A Global Methane Observation System to Reduce Uncertainty for Anthropogenic and Natural Sources and Sinks for Detecting and Attributing Climate Feedbacks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Conceptual illustration of a Global Ecosystem Methane Observing System (GEM‐OS) integrating satellites, aircraft, atmospheric networks, and ecosystem measurements to quantify methane emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. The multi‐scale observing framework improves source attribution, reduces uncertainty in regional methane budgets, and ...

Spectral‐Kinetic Synergy in Au‐Network Engineered FeTiO3: A Multi‐Field Coupling Strategy for Lunar In Situ Resource Utilization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
How can humanity achieve lunar self‐sufficiency? We utilize Au topology networks to modify the abundant lunar ilmenite. This catalyst, under sunlight, can convert waste carbon dioxide into space fuel. This design leverages the moon's natural vacuum for green manufacturing, avoiding the waste of gold and serving as “artificial chloroplasts” to sustain ...

Characterization of glacial silt and clay using automated mineralogy

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
Glacial erosion produces vast quantities of fine-grained sediment that has a far-reaching impact on Earth surface processes. To gain a better understanding of the production of glacial silt and clay, we use automated mineralogy to quantify the ...

Groundwater Rise Sustains the World's Largest Alpine Water System Under Global Warming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Shallow groundwater depth (SGWD) across the non‐permafrost plains of the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau decreased at averagely 0.02 m year−1, adding 31.44 Gt of freshwater storage from 2000 to 2020 and sustaining ∼53 500 km2 of alpine ecosystems. A vadose‐zone capacity of 426.6 Gt reveals these aquifers as promising reservoirs, highlighting groundwater's ...

Reconstruction of ice-sheet changes in the Antarctic Peninsula since the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper compiles and reviews marine and terrestrial data constraining the dimensions and configuration of the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet (APIS) from the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) through deglaciation to the present day.

Bio‐Inspired Oligocellulose‐Regulated Ice‐Water Interfaces Enable Sustained Ion Transport in Frozen Aqueous Zinc Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by antifreeze glycoproteins (AFGPs), we synthesized a type of oligomeric cellulose (OC‐8) to inhibit ice formation and enlarge the inter‐ice water channel for transportation. Typical confocal fluorescence experiments display the expansion of the ice‐water interface for zinc‐ion transport.

Ice-sheet scale distribution and morphometry of triangular-shaped hummocks (murtoos): a subglacial landform produced during rapid retreat of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
High-resolution digital elevation models of Finland and Sweden based on LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) reveal subglacial landforms in great detail.

Palaeoproteomic Deconvolution of Physical and Genetic Collagen Mixtures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ClassiCOL_v2 uses a novel “peptide patching” framework that treats any collagen sample as a patchwork of peptide sequences derived from phylogenetically related species. This allows the algorithm to simultaneously resolve two previously intractable problems: multi‐species samples and/or database deficiencies.

A Survey of Climatic Changes of Namak Lake Basin in the Late Quaternary [PDF]

open access: yesنشریه جغرافیا و برنامه‌ریزی, 2014
Two important characteristics, alternate climatic fluctuations and human being appearance, distinguish Quaternary from other geology periods. These climatic changes have shown increase and decrease of glacialical scope in high latitudes, but there are ...
