Instabilities on Alpine temperate glaciers: new insights arising from the numerical modelling of Allalingletscher (Valais, Switzerland) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 The processes leading to a glacier instability depend on the thermal properties of the contact between the glacier and its bedrock. Assessing the stability of temperate glacier (i.e. the glacier can slide on its bedrock) remains problematic.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by natural silicified wood, a biomimetic mineralized chitin‐derived aerogel is constructed. It can withstand 81 000 times its own weight, and its backside temperature is 130.4°C after exposure to ∼1300°C butane flame for 600 s, exhibiting high‐strength, fire‐resistance, and super thermal‐insulation properties.

Multivalent Glycopolymer Design Unlocks Antimicrobial Activity of 2‐Deoxyglucose
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.New approaches to combat antimicrobial‐resistant pathogens are needed. Here, scaffolding a nonmetabolizable sugar (2DG) on a polymer backbone is shown to significantly improve its antimicrobial activity. ABSTRACT With the increasing prevalence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) pathogens, last‐line therapeutics such as cyclic peptides are insufficient ...

The Mechanics of Glacier Flow [PDF]
Journal of Glaciology, 1952 AbstractThe flow of valley glaciers is examined in the light of recent laboratory experiments on the behaviour of ice under load. Simple expressions are given for the velocity distributions in some cases of laminar flow, and the modification of a pure laminar flow theory necessary to explain the formation of transverse crevasses and thrust planes is ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A high‐capacity polyimide‐linked porous organic polymer (HAT‐PTO) incorporating numerous redox‐active centers is synthesized via a hydrothermal reaction, delivering a high theoretical capacity of 484 mAh g−1. In situ hybridization with carboxyl‐functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes enhances conductivity and stability, achieving 397 mAh g−1 at C ...
