Snow and glacier melting and accumulation are important processes of the hydrological cycle in the cryosphere, e.g., high‐mountain areas. Glaciers and snow cover respond to climate change notably over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) as the Earth's Third Pole ...

Glacier data assimilation on an Arctic glacier: Learning from large ensemble twin experiments [PDF]
Glacier modeling is crucial for quantifying the evolution of cryospheric processes. At the same time, uncertainties hamper process understanding and predictive accuracy. Here, we suggest improving glacier mass balance simulations for the Kongsvegen glacier in Svalbard through the application of Bayesian data assimilation techniques in a set of large ...

Hydrographic measurements in Jökulsárlón lagoon, Iceland [PDF]
Jökulsárlón lagoon is an enclosed lake bordering the retreating Breidamerkurjökull glacier which flows down from the Vatnajökull ice cap. As the glacier calves most of the ice it releases decays within the lake and the addition of the stored fresh water ...

Controlled Growth of Oligophenylene‐Structures on Graphene for Facile Secondary functionalization.
Functionalization of graphene derivatives is a common approach to tune material properties for use in various applications. Due to the low reactivity of the unsaturated carbon lattice of graphene, not only are few chemical approaches suitable for successful functionalization, such as those involving highly reactive in situ formed radical species or ...

Multi-Sensor Deep Learning for Glacier Mapping [PDF]
The more than 200,000 glaciers outside the ice sheets play a crucial role in our society by influencing sea-level rise, water resource management, natural hazards, biodiversity, and tourism. However, only a fraction of these glaciers benefit from consistent and detailed in-situ observations that allow for assessing their status and changes over time ...

Solution blow spinning PTFE‐SiO2 membrane for membrane assisted solvent extraction. ABSTRACT An ultrafine‐fibrous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)–SiO2 membrane was successfully fabricated using the solution blow spinning (SBS) method. This membrane demonstrated superhydrophobicity (water contact angle > 150°) and oleophilicity (ethyl acetate contact ...

Slow Violence, Bergsonian Time and Climate Change. Contemporary Photographs of the Rhône Glacier
Climate change is facing a crisis of representation. Visual culture has a temporal bias towards spectacular violence, instantaneous and explosive, leaving no means with which to document slow-moving disasters in the image-driven world.
