Deep ice drilling, bedrock coring and dust logging with the Rapid Access Ice Drill (RAID) at Minna Bluff, Antarctica

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2021
Rapid Access Ice Drill is a new drilling technology capable of quickly accessing the glacial bed of Antarctic ice sheets, retrieving ice core and rock core samples, and providing boreholes for downhole logging of physical properties.

Expansivity of Neogene clays and glacial tills from central Poland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The revision of classification methodologies for determination of soil expansivity revealed that parameters most frequently used for this purpose are: the liquid limit, plasticity index and swelling parameters which also predominate in older systems of ...

Anisotropy and cyclic loading characteristics of a stiff Bolders Bank glacial till at Cowden [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Glacial tills are widespread across the world, common in northern Europe and found under the North and Baltic Seas. Their geological and geotechnical characterisation is important to the geotechnical design of a wide range of onshore and offshore ...

Scottish late-glacial moraines: debris supply, genesis and significance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A variety of moraine forms were deposited by glaciers during the Loch Lomond Stadial. Study of such moraines and related landforms provides a valuable source of data on patterns of landscape evolution and climatic change. This thesis presents detailed

Deformation ‘boundary front’ movements in subglacial tills—A microsedimentological perspective from till sequences near Pine Point, NWT, Canada

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2019
Investigations of glacial sediment exposures in a former open pit in the Pine Point Mining District, Northwest Territories, reveal evidence of changes in stress magnitude as exhibited by the movement of deformation ‘fronts’ within subglacial tills, as ...

An evaluation of strain softening of glacial tills as a result of pore pressure dynamics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Deep-seated progressive failures of cuttings in heavily overconsolidated clays have been observed in the field and are well documented, especially for London Clays (Potts, Kovacevic, & Vaughan, 1997; Smethurst, Powrie, & Clarke, 2006; Take, 2003),

Sediment behavior controls equilibrium width of subglacial channels

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Flow-frictional resistance at the base of glaciers and ice sheets is strongly linked to subglacial water pressure. Understanding the physical mechanisms that govern meltwater fluxes in subglacial channels is hence critical for constraining variations in ...

Rab1A Promotes Hepatic Steatosis by Suppressing Mitophagy via the Raf‐1/ERK1/2/PINK1 Signaling Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Why does fat accumulate in the liver? Our study reveals Rab1A as the molecular switch that silences the cell's mitochondrial cleanup crew. Turning Rab1A off reactivates mitophagy, clears excess fat, and reverses fatty liver disease in mice—offering a promising new therapeutic target for MASLD, a growing global health challenge.

Lithopetrographic and geochemical features of the Saalian tills in the Szczerców outcrop (Poland) in various deformation settings

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2021
This paper presents the results of new studies of Saalian tills, from the Ławki and Rogowiec formations, filling the Kleszczów Graben. The study area is located in the Szczerców outcrop, Bełchatów Lignite Opencast Mine, central Poland. Laboratory studies

A Rare De Novo Missense Mutation in IFT122 Confers a Genetic Susceptibility Factor of Idiopathic Pediatric Uveitis Via Trio‐based Whole‐Exome Sequencing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A rare de novo IFT122‐A773E variant is identified in idiopathic pediatric uveitis and shown to exacerbate retinal inflammation and barrier dysfunction. Mechanistically, the variant enhances IFT43 interaction, elevates calcium signaling, and activates the MEK/ERK/FRA1 axis, revealing a previously unrecognized cilia‐associated pathway that may increase ...
