Debris cover and surface melt at a temperate maritime alpine glacier: Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Melt rates on glaciers are strongly influenced by the presence of supraglacial debris, which can either enhance or reduce ablation relative to bare ice.

Glacier Flow in a Curving Channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The flow of a glacier along a channel of constant longitudinal curvature is analyzed using analytical and finite-element methods. Channels of various cross–sectional shape are investigated, ranging from a simple rectangular form with zero shear traction ...

Glacial lakes control ice flow: new insights from satellite SAR PO-SBAS observations in Duiya Glacier, southern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth
This study investigates the effects of glacial lakes on the flow velocities of Duiya Glacier, southern Tibetan Plateau, by employing satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Pixel-Offset-Tracking Small-Baseline-Subset (PO-SBAS) technology. Duiya Glacier,

Guanosine‐Quadruplex Hydrogels as Dynamic, Mechanically Tunable and Ion Conductive 3D Scaffolds for Cell Culture Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Versatile guanosine‐quadruplex (GQ) hydrogels are developed as dynamic biomatrices for cell culture. These scaffolds are fabricated under mild aqueous conditions, present improved stability, tunable mechanical properties within physiological ranges; fibrillar, porous microstructure, ion conductivity, and cytocompatibility.

Surface Ice Velocity near the Terminus of Grey Glacier in the Southern Patagonian Icefield, Based on Direct Field Measurements

open access: yesGeosciences
Glacier mass balance and ice flow dynamics, strongly influenced by climatic variability, topography, and geological–structural controls, can be precisely characterized through in situ GPS measurements of surface ice velocity, though such data remain ...

Spatial-Temporal Characteristics of Glacier Velocity in the Central Karakoram Revealed with 1999–2003 Landsat-7 ETM+ Pan Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
The situation of stable and slightly advancing glaciers in the Karakoram is called the “Karakoram anomaly”. Glacier surface velocity is one of the key parameters of glacier dynamics and mass balance, however, the response of glacier motion to this ...

Temporal Variations in Ice Thickness of the Shirase Glacier Derived from Cryosat-2/SIRAL Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
This study presents the feasibility of estimating the ice thickness of the Shirase Glacier using the synthetic aperture interferometric radar altimeter (SIRAL) on board the CryoSat-2 and the interannual variation of the ice thickness of the Shirase ...

Numerical modeling of the dynamics of the Mer de Glace glacier, French Alps: comparison with past observations and forecasting of near-future evolution [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
Alpine glaciers are shrinking and rapidly loosing mass in a warming climate. Glacier modeling is required to assess the future consequences of these retreats on water resources, the hydropower industry and risk management.

Grain Boundary Structure Ordering via Electroshock Treatment Enhances Strength‐Ductility Synergy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Electroshock treatment triggers atomic rearrangement, transforming disordered grain boundaries into ordered states without inducing recrystallization. This grain boundary ordering effectively relieves strain concentration and strengthens boundaries, enabling a simultaneous improvement in both strength and ductility.
