Effect of Composition on Engineering Behavior of Clay Tills
Geosciences, 2021 Glacial geology, marine environment, and arid climate govern the composition of clay tills. The main purpose of this work is to develop a clear understanding of the engineering behavior of compacted clay till under soil suction and applied stress.

Preferential export of permafrost-derived organic matter as retrogressive thaw slumping intensifies
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Enhanced warming of the Northern high latitudes has intensified thermokarst processes throughout the permafrost zone. Retrogressive thaw slumps (RTS), where thaw-driven erosion caused by ground ice melt creates terrain disturbances extending over tens of

Fire, 2023 The Caldor fire burned ~222,000 acres of the Eastern Sierra Nevada during summer–fall 2021. We evaluated the effects of this “megafire” on the physical properties of a sandy soil developed from glacial tills to document fire-induced soil modifications in

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Deterministic crypt fission is achieved in intestinal organoids using photopatternable hydrogels with spatiotemporal control. Daughter‐crypt symmetry is shown to depend on parent‐crypt geometry and epithelial curvature, while myosin‐dependent mechanosensing links tissue shape to regenerative outcomes.

Ice-marginal ridge relief complex in northern Kola Peninsula (NW Russia): morphology, structure, and genetic interpretation [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of FinlandA widely spread ridge relief complex was formed by the last ice cover in the northeastern part of the Kola Peninsula. The complex belongs to the ice-marginal formations of the ice streams of the north-eastern Fennoscandian Ice Sheet.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A directionally ice‐templated sulfur cathode integrated with atomically dispersed Fe–N4 catalytic sites is developed for high‐performance lithium–sulfur batteries. The structure–catalysis synergy accelerates Li+ transport and polysulfide conversion, leading to high sulfur utilization and stable long‐term cycling performance.

Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture
Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.
