Recent glacier decline in the Kerguelen Islands (49°S, 69°E) derived from modeling, field observations, and satellite data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Date of Acceptance: 28/02/2015The retreat of glaciers in the Kerguelen Islands (49°S, 69°E) and their associated climatic causes have been analyzed using field data and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite images to validate a ...

Mitochondria‐Targeted Multimodal Nanotherapeutics Suppress Oxidized mtDNA‐Driven Inflammation at the Source

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ox‐mtDNA fragments escaping from mitochondria drive robust inflammatory responses. A targeted nanoplatform simultaneously inhibits mitochondrial FEN1‐mediated mtDNA cleavage and scavenges ROS, preventing the generation of immunogenic Ox‐mtDNA fragments. The released SeNPs further promote autophagic clearance of cytosolic mtDNA. Consequently, cGAS‐STING,

A scenario-based volcanic hazard assessment for the Mount Meager Volcanic Complex, British Columbia

open access: yesJournal of Applied Volcanology, 2022
The Mount Meager Volcanic Complex (Mount Meager) is a glacier-clad stratovolcanic system in southwestern British Columbia which last erupted over 2400 years ago (VEI 4).

Modeling 2m air temperatures over mountain glaciers: Exploring the influence of katabatic cooling and external warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Air temperature is one of the most relevant input variables for snow and ice melt calculations. However, local meteorological conditions, complex topography, and logistical concerns in glacierized regions make the measuring and modeling of air ...

TNAP and PHOSPHO1 Function Synergistically to Afford Critical Control Over the Mineralization of the Postnatal Murine Skeleton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biomineralization underpins skeletal development, yet its molecular control remains incompletely understood. Using a novel murine knockout model, this study reveals the essential and complementary roles of PHOSPHO1 and TNAP in postnatal skeletal development.

Increased rate of acceleration on Pine Island Glacier strongly coupled to changes in gravitational driving stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Pine Island Glacier, Antarctica, has been undergoing several related changes for at least two decades; these include acceleration, thinning and grounding line retreat.

Electrodeposited Piezoelectric Chitosan Films: A New Approach Toward a Scalable and Standardized Fabrication of Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Electrodeposition is explored as an innovative and scalable approach to fabricate standardized and highly piezoelectric chitosan films. Chitosan deposition is driven onto gold‐coated silicon plates by an applied voltage. Films’ piezoelectricity is clearly proved and correlated to the material structural order.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

A growing threat of multi‐hazard cascades highlighted by the Birch Glacier collapse and Blatten landslide in the Swiss Alps

open access: yesGeology Today
Rapid atmospheric warming, especially at high altitude, leads to alpine mountain landscapes becoming more vulnerable to mass movements and consequently unstable.

Coherent scatterers detection: application over glacier terrain using TerraSAR-X time series data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper investigates the detection of Coherent Scatterers (CSs) in ice and glacier terrain by means of TerraSAR-X time series data in the test site of the Helheim Glacier in Greenland.
