Exploring beneath the retreating ice: swath bathymetry reveals sub- to proglacial processes and longevity of future alpine glacial lakes

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology
Knowledge of how glaciations formed landscapes is particularly important as receding glaciers currently uncover subglacial landscapes that are prone to a series of natural hazards, but that also bring opportunities for hydropower or water resources.

Lithological discontinuity in Glossic Planosols (Albeluvisols) of Lower Silesia (SW Poland)

open access: yesSoil Science Annual, 2015
The paper focuses on Glossic Planosols (formerly Albeluvisols) with sandy topsoil widely represented in the northeastern part of Lower Silesia (SW Poland), in the range of tills from the Odra and Warta glaciations (Riss glaciation).

Landforms of the lower Hushe Valley (Central Karakoram, Pakistan)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
This paper presents a new geomorphological map for the lower Hushe Valley (below 3400 m asl), located to the SE of the Central Karakoram in Baltistan (North Pakistan). Fieldwork and remote sensing were combined to improve understanding of the most recent

A Rare Allele of ST5 From Wild Rice Enhances Salt Tolerance in Rice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel salt‐tolerance gene ST5W, characterized by a unique 36‐bp promoter insertion, is found exclusively in a small subset of Oryza rufipogon and is absent in cultivated rice. Field trials confirm ST5W significantly enhances rice yield across diverse genetic backgrounds under saline conditions.

Subglacial processes at the fringe of the last Scandinavian Ice Sheet in central Poland derived from macro‐ and micro‐sedimentological proxies

open access: yesBoreas
Geological information contained in tills is important for deciphering processes that operated under past ice sheets and helps to constrain the fundamentals of glacial erosion, transport and deposition.

First Alps-wide reconstruction of LGM glacial sediment transport enabled by GPU-accelerated particle tracking [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Reconstructing the transport histories and provenances of glacial sediments and ice-contact deposits (e.g. tills, moraines) in formerly glaciated regions remains a major challenge, particularly at icefield- to ice-sheet scales and over multi-millennial ...

Ice-crevasse sedimentation in the eastern part of the Głubczyce Plateau (S Poland) during the final stage of the Drenthian Glaciation

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2020
Glacial sediments in the eastern part of the Głubczyce Plateau, at the Krowiarki site, were studied. Two units were distinguished within the sedimentary succession.

Retrogressive thaw slumps temper dissolved organic carbon delivery to streams of the Peel Plateau, NWT, Canada [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2017
In Siberia and Alaska, permafrost thaw has been associated with significant increases in the delivery of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to recipient stream ecosystems.

Targeting Supramolecular Active Complexes of Nav1.7/Nav1.8 to Relieve Chronic Neuropathic Pain

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In mice and patients with severe chronic neuropathic pain (NP), Nav1.7, Nav1.8, TrkB, and five cytoskeletal proteins form supramolecular active complexes (SMACs) with polygonal lattice structures as noxious signal amplifiers in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons.

Meteorological, soil moisture, surface water, and groundwater data from the St. Denis National Wildlife Area, Saskatchewan, Canada [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2019
The St. Denis National Wildlife Area is located in the seasonally frozen and semi-arid Canadian Prairies, close to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The site has a hummocky terrain and is underlain by clay-rich glacial tills.
