Calving of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, Antarctica) observed with terrestrial laser scanning and continuous video monitoring

Journal of Glaciology, 2016
A short-term series of quantitative observations of calving activity of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) was conducted in order to test new methods of monitoring calving.

Does salinity make a difference—Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

A Rapid GeoSAM-Based Workflow for Multi-Temporal Glacier Delineation: Case Study from Svalbard

CoRR
Consistent glacier boundary delineation is essential for monitoring glacier change, yet many existing approaches are difficult to scale across long time series and heterogeneous environments. In this report, we present a GeoSAM-based, semi-automatic workflow for rapid glacier delineation from Sentinel-2 surface reflectance imagery.

Interpreting a Legacy Fossil Assemblage Excavated From Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), GunaiKurnai Aboriginal Country, Snowy River National Park, Southeastern Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper we report on faunal remains recovered from a legacy archaeological excavation undertaken in the rockshelter entrance of Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), a GunaiKurnai site located on the west bank of the Snowy River, East Gippsland, southeastern Australia.

Changes in glacier area and volume in Terskey Ala-Too Range in the second half of XX century

Лëд и снег, 2015
Changes in the extent of glaciers and rates of glacier termini retreat in the eastern Terskey-Alatoo Range, the Tien Shan Mountains, Central Asia have been evaluated using the remote sensing techniques. Changes in the extent of 109 glaciers between 1965,

7000 Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region.

A Practical Gut‐On‐Chip Workflow for Imaging‐Based Assessment of Epithelial Barrier Dynamics During E. coli Co‐Culture

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intestinal epithelium and its resident microbiota form a dynamic interface that is central to gut homeostasis, but this interface is difficult to model with conventional tools. Static Transwell cultures lack physiological fluid shear, whereas animal models are costly and poorly suited to quantitative, high‐content imaging.

Magnetoelastic Cell Monitoring System for Evaluating the Effects of Surface Chemistry on the Performance of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Growth

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recent clinical adoption of cell therapies has increased the need for more efficient, robust, and reproducible manufacturing technologies. Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs), a major component of the cell and immunotherapeutic market, remain challenging to manufacture at scale because they require surface attachment and are highly ...

Calving front monitoring at a subseasonal resolution: a deep learning application for Greenland glaciers [PDF]

The Cryosphere
The mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet is strongly influenced by the dynamics of its outlet glaciers. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to accurately and continuously monitor these glaciers, especially the variation in their frontal positions.
