The glacial origins of relict ‘pingos’, Wales, UK
Annals of Glaciology, 2019 Ramparted depressions (doughnut-shaped debris-cored ridges with peat- and/or sediment-filled central basins) are commonly perceived to represent the relict collapsed forms of permafrost ground-ice mounds (i.e. pingos or lithalsas).

Developing slurries for carbon capture: From synthetic gas mixtures to flue gas
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Deep eutectic solvent (DES)‐based systems have recently emerged as promising alternatives to conventional liquid sorbents for CO2 capture due to their tunable properties and potential for enhanced mass transfer. In this work, two DES‐based slurry systems previously developed for CO2 capture, one aqueous and one non‐aqueous, were further ...

Frontiers in Water, 2022 We use a fully coupled hydro-thermal model (TH) to quantify changes in the pore pressure and temperature distribution following the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in the intracontinental basins in Central and Northern Europe. We demonstrate that even without

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Communications Earth & EnvironmentSubglacial geology plays a key role in determining the rate of ice flow and sensitivity of the glacial system to atmospheric or ocean warming. However, bedrock geology is often poorly known because direct information from subglacial samples is extremely ...

Quaternary Science AdvancesThe surficial geology of an approximately 30 000 km2 region in northeastern Quebec and western Labrador was mapped to elucidate the glacial dynamics of a region that experienced ice divide migrations and determine the net effect of this evolution on the ...

Remote Sensing, 2023 Understanding the distribution and characterization of natural and non-natural materials on the surface and near-subsurface is important for the development of infrastructure projects. This may be a challenge in highly urbanized areas, where outcrops are

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carbon capture technologies are poised to become one of the primary focuses regarding the achievement of net‐zero emissions by the year 2050. In these technologies, particular attention is given to post‐combustion CO2 capture, which is more easily implemented at existing power stations and other industries.

Emergence of the Shackleton Range from beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to glacial erosion [PDF]
, 2014 This paper explores the long-term evolution of a subglacial fjord landscape in the Shackleton Range, Antarctica. We propose that prolonged ice-sheet erosion across a passive continental margin caused troughs to deepen and lower the surrounding ice-sheet ...

Similarity analysis using rank in till geochemistry [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1991 A similarity analysis method based on Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (p) was developed aiming to indirectly measure the similarity between the geochemistry of till and bedrock. The study area lies in Central Finland, comprising c.
