Ocean forcing of glacier retreat in the western Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesScience, 2016
The heat is on Rising surface air temperatures are understood to cause glacial melting, but it is becoming increasingly clear that the ocean also has a strong impact. Cook et al.

Covalent Organic Frameworks for Photocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of recent advances in covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for photocatalysis, focusing on sustainable energy applications like water splitting, hydrogen peroxide generation, and CO2 and N2 reduction. It discusses design principles, structure‐function relationships, challenges in COF photocatalysis, and strategies to ...

Using Multi-Mission Satellite Elevation Data for Delineation of Gilgit Watershed in Pakistan in Geographical Information Technology Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Economic and Environment Geology, 2020
The hydro-climatological variations in Gilgit watershed of Upper Indus basin is less scientifically understood due to diverse geography, remoteness of the region and larger variations in climatic conditions. Extraction of catchments at multiple scales is

Spatio-temporal assessment of regional scale evolution and distribution of glacial lakes in Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Glacial lakes are a potential threat to the livelihoods and precious infrastructures in the Himalayan region. The expansion of these lakes under the influence of global warming further poses a grievous risk of natural disasters in the form of glacial ...

The variability of tidewater-glacier calving: origin of event-size and interval distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Calving activity at the termini of tidewater glaciers produces a wide range of iceberg sizes at irregular intervals. We present calving-event data obtained from continuous observations of the termini of two tidewater glaciers on Svalbard, and show that the distributions of event sizes and inter-event intervals can be reproduced by a simple calving ...

Bayesian U-Net for Segmenting Glaciers in SAR Imagery [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Fluctuations of the glacier calving front have an important influence over the ice flow of whole glacier systems. It is therefore important to precisely monitor the position of the calving front. However, the manual delineation of SAR images is a difficult, laborious and subjective task.

Application of terrestrial‚ 'structure-from-motion' photogrammetry on a medium-size Arctic valley glacier: potential, accuracy and limitations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Terrestrial photogrammetry was the standard method for mapping high mountain terrain in the early days of mountain cartography, until it was replaced by aerial photogrammetry and airborne laser scanning.

Suitability of ground-based SfM-MVS for monitoring glacial and periglacial processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Photo-based surface reconstruction is rapidly emerging as an alternative survey technique to lidar (light detection and ranging) in many fields of geoscience fostered by the recent development of computer vision algorithms such as structure from motion ...

Mountain glacier-to-rock glacier transition

open access: yesGlobal and Planetary Change, 2019
Abstract In many of the world's high mountain systems, glacier recession in response to climate change is accompanied by a paraglacial response whereby glaciers are undergoing a transition to rock glaciers. We hypothesise that this transition has important implications for hydrological resources in high mountain systems and the surrounding lowlands ...

Sustainable Smart Packaging from Protein Nanofibrils

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Smart packaging can extend shelf life and improve food quality monitoring. This study introduces a novel smart packaging solution using amyloid fibrils and red radish anthocyanins to monitor seafood spoilage. These findings show that these films effectively indicate shrimp freshness and possess high antibacterial and antioxidant properties, offering a ...
